I agree. I do like to run down the highway in my 2005 F150 with the cruise set at 95, ac going, and can hear the stereo (Its a company truck) but on teh other hand I REALLY like mashing down on the pedal on my old 49 (500ci Caddy power) and just roasting the tires.

I guess thats why we all need several trucks, in fact, we need as many trucks the same way women need all those pairs of shoes
