Yes, congrats on reaching 2K, renichms. Considering your confrontational driving style, I think you deserve this rather than a "Bettie."

Thanks guys. Just got a REALLY rude, totally uncalled for email about this from someone who's never spoken directly to me before and knows absolutely nothing about me. Sigh. I wish people would read all I've said before jumping to conclusions and deeming it necessary to come down from on high to set straight the mortal fools. Seeing how we're not supposed to bring personal things here, I won't mention who it was or exactly what they said or go into further detail except in email. Just bringing it up to ask that he not do it again and that no one else try that kind of crap. It is not asked for, not welcome, and not constructive in any way, shape or form.

The pick up must have needed a tune up real bad. I know because my Pt Can't even begin to catch my 95 Ford Bronco 5.0 and both have K/N filters.

It may have. Although I frequently pace F150's without meaning to as well. Some of them hit the gas hard then too and I don't notice because some of the newer models are a bit quieter than the one in question.

bigjim, you must have an auto PT? 5-speeds are a tad quicker.

In my city there have been 20 plus lives lost because of this growng trend. Here you could have been charged with Street Racing and had your car impounded on the spot. Followed by a trial and the loss of your license for at least a year.

This sort of Irresponsible behaviour has to STOP! Use your head not your ...
OH GRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!
