Superduty VS Silverado

The 6.0l makes up to 345 HP. 320 or so in the Chevys, but quite a bit less torque. If it was a HD I was thinking it might be the diesel.

I don't think the long throw slows you down more that .1s 0-60 - it just FEELS that way.

You go boy, Good job. I got the 4.30 too, with an automatic,
can't wait for one of them boys to pull up side me and feel frisky, I haven't done any drag racing in a loooooong time, but I feel it wanting to come back once in a while

Good job, even though it wasn't in your words.

Okay so now to the prize...

A brand new, never been used, high performance BOX OF AIR! Now this air, when ingested into your engine, will provide a split second or two of improved performance, the likes that you've yet to experience!!

Simply open the box in front of the truck while travelling AT LEAST 60 mph and just feel the power!!

You, you lucky dog you, will be one of the first to try this amazing performance enhancing product before it's national appearance on late night info-mercials! You thought the Tornado improved performance & Z-Max!? Weeeeeeeeellll, just wait till you get yer hands on this!!!

The secret is the super-oxygenated oxygen molecules. These molecules are actually bigger molecules of oxygen compared to average breathing air. And you know that more (bigger ) O2 means MORE POWER!!

I'll send it right away; postage due. Please provide me with your address. Sorry, no PO boxes.

I think you have been watching way too many infomercials Monsta. There has to be a catch for something this good. Shouldn't there be at least 3 easy payments of an undisclosed amount?
