you said truck are you talking about a syclone? typhoons were the suv version of the syclone. if you out ran one to 100 you truck must be running good. Stock version run high 12s low 13's.

Did you know the driver? I know a guy in Phoenix that has a pretty quick Syclone.

Had a friend just ship his Typhoon out to Denver, CO, about three weeks back. I also have a close relative with a Syclone. It seems that they are hit-and-miss on being quick, or somewhat quick. I know some of them rip.

I think its more like mid 13s to low 14s, quick for stock though. I always wanted one.

I think your thinking Typhoon Vs Syclone

I am fairly certain the numbers on the syclone were high 12's to low 13's, 0-60 in 3.8 seconds.

Typhoon was much heavier 13's-14's like you said, and a 0-60 of 5.9 seconds.

Never in my time have I seen a stock syclone go high 12's. None the less they do run very well, can be nasty with minimal mods

well car and driver tested one that went 13.06 in stock version. There guys over on the syty forum that have went around the same time. The high twelve was probably a little bit of a stretch. its funny in the article it said it did 0-60 in 4.6 secs.....in the rain.
