I agree,most people say "you could run 8's with all that stuff in a Camaro or vette,but there are 100's of those running around,not too many 10 sec ext cab trucks that run 10's in street trim. That's why I love it. I wanna go 10's without a burnout,drag radials or spooling it up. 10's off the bust,how many cars on the street can do that? Hopefully I get to see it soon,it's been a long road!

Once you get into the 11's, any ET gains after that are minimal with high costs.

Essentially a SSS is a bill-board on wheels that weighs almost 3 tons...

I Agree with you 100%. I hear all the time from people, why are you trying to make your truck fast just buy a car. A ext cab truck (especially an awd 6000 pound brick called an SS) that can pull a 10 without going home and changing tires, would be very impressive. There out there just not that many.
