i never used to believe this from all the ppl i heard it from... then i started test drivin TONS of trucks when i was lookin at buying, you would be REALLY suprised at how much it actually is, i mean ive heard guys runnin stock 2wd 5.3 rcsbs, some claim they run 15.6, some claim they run 15 flat. theres a big diff there.

awhile back was that you that posted about your brother-in-law wit the mustang? did you ever run him?

Some consider CAI, Exhaust, and a Tune to be stock. Hell I even consider it stock. My RCSB 04 w/ 5.3 and 3.73's ran a best of 15.7, this was at 4,000ft and about 95 deg's outside. It had corsa, volant, and HPP3.


My point is, for the most part, people here arent lying but they are not telling the full story. That is why you have one guy running 14's stock and the other running 17's stock. Driver ability has some to play, but not to much with a stock truck and auto.

So I guess my question is, what is STOCK???

I will post this again in a new thread.
