Default Damn X-runner

guys i just raced a Toyota X-runner in my 05 SS and those things are fast for a V-6 truck. i only pulled it by 1 1/2 car lengths in like a 300ft stretch from a 5mph roll. has any one ever raced one in the 1/4 mile or know what kind of numbers they put up?

I want to see one run, but being in Arkansas and all I bet the closest I'll ever be to one is at the dealership. I've heard they have a S/C option straight from the dealership and it will put the truck into high 13's..

They are pretty quick, I drive em all the time cuz I work for the toyota producing plant, they pick up pretty quick, but I don't think I would ever buy one tho eventhough we get a 20% discount on the final price, I don't think I would be able to say "ya its from japan and its a 6-cylinder!"

I think Motor Trend or Car and Driver magazine did a test on the new X-Runner about a year ago. If I remember correctly, I think it ran a low 15 in the 1/4 mile. Don't use this as a reference however. Magazine tests always seem slower. I heard about that S/C option for the X-Runner. That would be bad ***!!
