in other words you can't pass anything but a parked car? Especially not a gas station.

No the opposite lol... Minus the gas station depending on my driving habits... I know my truck isnt a race car or anything but I have raced a fair share of trucks and cars.. A ton of chevy 1500s and there was a few blazers and s10s that tried.. The best was the suburban that tried racing me... f-150s also try.. Then there is the crowd of the "Extreme Rednecks" who drive their rangers and b2000's and think they are gods gift... They tried racing me before and that was a waste of gas..

Funny story.. I saw them fellas a few days after the "race" and thought I would have some fun.. I parked my truck in front of theirs and got out. Walked to my toolbox and pulled out my 30ft chain and said " So which one wants to get embarrased today?" They got in their toys and left.. I got a hell of a kick out of it..

I'd like to think I could have speed off if I had actually tried, I never really did try to get ahead.. But engine mod or not that little V8 was moving...
