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
