Default Anyone else into diesel pickups

I have a 2001 Lb7 quad cab,. 625 HP 1275 ft lbs torque. It has really spoiled me into what power is all about.

Yep. I have a F250 6.4L Super Cab Short box. I use it for pulling my trailer. Only thing left to upgrade are the ARP Head bolts.
Sitting somewhere around the same horse and TQ as you.
Useless in Michigan winters.

Yep, All 4 tires spin at the same time. I don't drive it in the winter anyway.

Did. A
Few sub12 sec. 1/4 mile runs this last summer that was with 35" tires. My best was 11.6. I think I could go a little faster if I used 33 inch street tires vs. mud tires.

I like the white one Big John.
Some of these diesels are amazing. Sub 12 seconds in a streetable pick up!
We ran into some of the truck guys at BG a couple years ago. They rented the track before we could get to it and they wouldn't let us play with them. Probably a good thing, they would have spanked a lot of us.

Not a diesel, but I love my 03 Lightning. Really a fun truck I've had for around 10-11 years now.

I'm jealous Rich. I loved my 03 Sonic Blue SVT Lightning almost as much as my ZR-1. Only one could ship to Japan. The Lightning would surely turn more heads here and I have not seen one yet!







I lost my arse when I sold my ZR-1, but my Lightning sold for $2000 more than I paid for it after 3 years of ownership.
