*I was gonna say...* yeah, the LS1 thing had me all up and ready to shoot you down in flames, lol

you don't know what kind of truck it is at all? in all honesty though, trucks these days are pretty quick. my dad has a '98 Sierra that I have added a few performance items to (exhaust, air intake, throttle body spacer, electronic shift improver...) and that thing will just stomp the piss out of my Civic, I mean it isnt even funny! the only thing I can do that it can't is go over 100 mph which I rarely do anyway... but yeah that is a regular cab step side with 15x10 wheels and a rather torquey 350 so it will eat my car for breakfast off the line and it has 250 stock hp, maybe another 20 or so with what I did to it, granted thats only around 270 hp or so it is still fast for what it is

if you attempted to match up against a Lightning it doesnt surpise me that it would outrun you... I don't know what you drive or anything but those are impressive trucks, I love them to death and that says a lot since it is a FORD... probably the only Ford I would take pride in owning!

bottom line, newer full size trucks are not as slow as some people may think they are, esp if you are talking a regular cab short bed that is nice and light (as far as a full size truck goes)
