Fairly new, an 03 up.
I wasn`trying hard and neither was he, it was just for smiles...
If we`d been heading out instead of into town it may have been a different story.

That would be a good race, a 4.6 against a PSD. I have had both and the PSD would probably win though. Its not a whole lot heavier and its got a whole lot more under the hood.
Maybe you should come out to highway 16 sherm, Ill bite that race

Ive read that alot on here too. Our old shop truck at the tire shop was a 6 liter, and it seemed like it was about the same for speed as my ol 7.3.
Bring the 05 out to highway 16 and lets do a real world test!!
I normally dont rev my truck up very high either, I rarely need to.

I won`t rev mine up, the techs will get their day at it some day soon enough. It`s a serious almost 8,000 lb work truck and not a Mustang.....

Hopefully the techs dont get at it! As long as you dont do alot of towing with it, your head gaskets should be fine!!
J/K Im sure it will be fine to work her abit, it is made for it!
I just use mine for a little speed from time to time.
