Damn man Id love for all you guys to drive to AZ and have a meet haha =) We got perfect sunny skys and we could use my shop!

Well I retract my statement bout D and Nicks trucks, I dunno what is really faster, I just thought a Supercharged truck would be quicker then a N/A but I never driven both nor will I ever, Guess Ill have to make my own!

It sits so perfect for a street truck. Just very clean.

Wow i am surprised that ain't lowered more. After all you are doing 100mph in that beast. I like it but if i wanted to go fast i would buy a mustang or something like that. Don't get me wrong if i could do 100mph safe in my truck i would try it. I have to give you credit that you didn't put a stupid wing on that back of that ranger.

100mph in that truck drives like 40mph in your truck. I have personally been in it at 120mph and did not even question the stability of the truck at that speed.

I guess the wide/low profile tires tend to help alot? I have done 90mph in my old ranger on 31x10.5/15's with those hood visor things that lund makes. That was scary cause you could turn the wheel and not hear the tires chirping on the road.

I found out the speed limiter in my truck is at 90, which I was very disappointed to hit, I thought it would hold out till 99 or 100...
