I love comparisons like that. I have a Lincoln Town Car, and for me to say that it rides like a Cadillac wouldn't be a stretch. Frequently on FTE I read someone saying their brand-new Super Duty rides like a Caddy.
My car sure as heck doesn't ride like an F350, and no Super Duty with anything resembling a factory suspension rides like a luxury sedan. Nor do they handle like a sports car.

My truck does fine at >80mph. I enjoy a weekly commute into UT, and the 80mph PSL is absolutely appropriate. The limit was increased from 75mph in rural sections of interstate. As they started implementing the higher limit, traffic flow improved as the majority of drivers now drive at PSL in the right lane. With the lower limit there were a lot more drivers weaving in and out, passing others. There's still too many that insist on going 5 under PSL in the left lane. Even with the, "Keep right, except to pass. It's the law" signs, some just don't get it. 
The real Boss mustang is the UC UT trooper that patrols the southern part of the state. Last year they had a custom powder blue stang with a Starsky and Hutch graphic. This year they have a white one. The blue one was cool, the new car is flat out BAD! Custom paint, big wheels, black windows, you'd never know. Then he turns on the lights, its covered in red and blues. I'll try to snap a pic next time I see him lit up. Being the mouse, I try to avoid the cat.

One of my buddies had a gen 1 lightning when I had just bought a bone stock 91 5.0 mustang(where the 91 in my name comes from) with a 2.73 gear and he wanted to race them(Bristol dragway). I don't remember his time, but I almost half tracked him. No comparison whatsoever. That being said, another buddy had a gmc syclone that stayed within half a car of me.

I got rid of that 91 a long time ago and it stayed stock since it was my daily driver. My race car then was an 86 gt with a built 351w and 4.56 gears. I'm running an 83 coupe with the same drivetrain as the 86 and I assure you your 6.7 doesn't want any of it

This is 100% correct!!!! I have both a Super Duty and a 2014 Mustang GT..................There is NO comparison, even tho the SD does handle pretty darn good at 75-80 where the speed limits allow.
