That's it! Now you've gone and done it! Posted a picture of a truck that looks so good, even tho it's not my color or trim level, I'm STILL jealous! Mainly it told me that my feelings about wanting a Reg. Cab Short Bed 2WD are right on target. That truck w/ the 5.0 has GOT to be one quick runner, and just plain a hoot to drive. Nice going Mike!

Great truck! I can't wait to get my 5.0L this summer. Does the 5.0 in your truck have the 5-star tune or is factory stock? If its factory stock 0-100mph in less than 20 seconds is impressive!

Anyway here is a couple of other 5.0L accelration videos from youtube.


YouTube - 2011 Ford F-150 5.0 V8 0-60

YouTube - 2011 Ford F-150 5.0L 0-60


Once again great truck and great clips!

Heck, I was tickled that he was getting 21+mpg before the "flog"; I SERIOUSLY doubt he's been egg-footing it before this, even if it was all highway miles. For it to do that AND have all that power, I AM impressed... Plus I'm impressed with the info available on the dash, and this being an XL model to boot!
Nice, soooo nice......
