the guy next door

so the guy that lives next door was saying how nice my truck is, I said ya its kinda fast too. he didnt belive me.
I tossed him the keys and said lets go for a ride you drive. he took off real slow. he couldnt belive how well it rode just crusing. we got up on the hwy and he wooded the little pedal and began to laugh with the biggist simle you could imagine. Then he looked at the right side mirror and saw the big black cloud of coal and almost wet himself.
we got back and the first hing his wife said was "NO" lmao
Sucks for that guy. his stuck with his little car.

Yeah, I know that story. My step son is a FMC junkie and a hot rodder. Two ten second Mustangs and a 12 second F150 Lightning. I let him drive my truck with Innovative 120 hp tune. He said right after the truck hit 95mph on the entrance ramp " a truck this big should never be this damn fast".

Regards

Reminds me of picking up a hitchhiker that had a older dodge pickup with a hole in the block sat on the side of the highway.I stopped to see if I could give the young fella a hand and saw he needed a ride,he gets in the front his ol lady and dog get in the back.Speed limit was 110kmh,I put the truck in gear and rolled into it hard,a couple shifts into merging into trafic he looked at me with pie plate eyes and a slight grin and said "this isn't an ordinary truck is it".
