Garrett,
Not pick it apart, but you said "what my truck could do" - this leaves me wondering.
Is this your truck? I'm guessing it is.
Anyways, I enjoyed the clips. A bog and an uh-oh on the second one.
But I thought the 3rd was good.
RPMs build faster than my truck!
3rd gear seemed to do pretty darned good. That's my favorite gear in my truck.

Let's see what others say.

Could or used to. As you may know, I removed the SC, so that kind of performance is gone for a while. We will see if and when I build it up again, and how! The first one is just RPMs...second is good until I screw the shift. Third I ride the clutch a little...kinda made me a lil mad. Glad you enjoyed em, and thanks for the input! Like I said, please leave me some feedback if you watch em, good OR bad.

Garrett

I've tried to view them about a million times, on about a million different occasions, asd it's either loading wwaaaayyy too slow or just wont load. I'm trying right now, from my school's connection, hopefully it'll work. I'll leave some feedback eventually.....

Okay, so i had to open the URL with my Windows Media Player, and it worked fine. Anyhow, great clips! Wish they were a little longer, or maybe a clip of you running another truck/car at the track or whatnot. Definitely a quick truck, but I think if i had that the bug would hit me and I'd just start tuning, tuning, tuning until either I ran 12s or 11s or just blew my tranny and motor. J/k!
Are you thinking about putting it back in?

I claim ownership of Garrett's SC! I want that bad boy I can't find em on the damn internet.. I'm thinking some 4.10s, CAI, Straight Pipe Exhaust and a SC.. Maybe even a Diablo Chip and I could really show these stupid Importers what a real V6 truck can do! Tired of seeing all these (censored) kids running around with F150 Supercab 4.2s slammed to the ground or sitting on some 30 inch rims (whatever is in style these days).. Its depressing.. Trucks serve 3 purposes!

Purpose 1. Haul all kinds of crap around, do you really want to put cow crap in your SUV?

Purpose 2. Haul butt at 90 mph on the freeway, seeing a huge truck going very fast in your rearview mirror makes idiots move out of the way REAL FAST.

Purpose 3. Having a bed that doesnt have to be made, do I need say more?

I love Ford..

Tom, Yes I have a complex...but has apartments in it. The reason I posted that was that it had over 130 views, and 4 posts, 2 of which were mine. Thats weak.

I mounted the gauge there so I could monitor boost easily. The video makes it look like its at a weird angle, but is actually pointed right in my line of sight over the horn in the steering wheel. Plus, cops around here like to pull people over when they notice pillar mounted gauges.

Stormin...I sent you a PM here....contact me. My truck weighed in around 4800 pounds when those vids were made....Its quick..I tell you what.

Garrett
