    Dude I'm so stoked. I hope they let me take pics and vids. I just can't wait to see how it jumps. Nothing's really that fast to me anymore so I'm Hopin fer the best. But I keep thinkin the 2nd gen lightning was 390 hp. This is pretty damn close to that. I'm anxious as hell to see how this eb and4.10 rear make it jump

    Ok boys. Free dealing with all the spam. Now I can report on the tremor. No pics no vids. I know. Booooooooo. But hey. There rules Almost pulled a g in the turns. Launched like a new mustang GT and the cab is very nice with the bucket seats and every option. Turbo spool is def heard. She's mean boys. Track times just got better and better as the mourning went on. Ben did a couple laps with the air on. And still handled like a beast. Very proud to b a ford guy. I def see alot of these on the road. I drove the 4x2 model. They said there will b a 4x4 model as well. Bad little truck fellas. Totally surprised in a six. 1-10 gave it a 9.

    Even. Not Ben. Haha. No Ben here

    Pat. This was the first ecoboost pickup I've drivin. I was honored to have a lightning in my stable fer a short time. That truck ran a 12.80. Stock. I just tuned it up and gave her a good bath. Now. I did have a good 1/4 mile straight. And this truck climbed. But as for handling and braking. The tremor wins by a landslide. I really have to see em go door to door to make a claim. But all around modern day ford ass whoopin truck. The Eco 8 is right around the corner. I drove that a few months ago. When this truck allegedly gets that motor? Other trucks beware. So. Does it kill it? Side by side race on a road course? It would b close. Drag race? It would b close. I recorded no times on my laps. Nor was I allowed too. Not even my phone could take the ride. But I know they were only because every lap they told me in my helmet I was settin the lace hammer down. Lets see what u can do. So I did. This truck will not. And cannot b touched by any other manufacture. Dodge has a similar pick up. But I think that nail is in the coffin. Late summer early fall. Drive one boys

    They also wanted a ride in the beast. He was all 1/4 mile car that day. They still loved it lol. I told em I'd do some swapin and take it on the road course. But they said no way. Keep her just the way she is. And go make us proud. Lol. So. I did. ( in my Forrest Gump voice) lol

    Great review Joe, glad you had the opportunity to preview one! Sounds like it'll finally shutup the Bowtie boys and the ghost trailer gang lmao. Can't wait for the Eco 8 though.
