9.32?!? Really?!?

9.32?!? Really?!?
So today I finally took my truck out to play a little bit with data logging. First off, its an awesome feature to see real engine temps, rpms, timing advance %s, and so on. I did 2 runs quick as I was by my house so I didnt want the neighbors to get mad. My first run was a 0-40 and it timed at 5.01 .... My second run was a 0-60 and that timed at 9.32 .... neither runs were serious set ups or anything. Just taking off from a stop sign. The 0-60 I did spin tires slightly at the beginning. But 9.32!?!? SERIOUSLY!? Is that all I should expect from my truck? Thats slow!
What are your mildly modified trucks running? I do have the 3.55 gears, but I would hate to see what my truck did stock if the 9's is all I should expect from my setup. Opinions?

Its the same engine as the Ram, and we have a lighter truck by nearly a 1000lbs plus

Ill run mine tonight... and see for a comparison...
All I have done is a KN Cai and Cherry Bomb 3 Inch Exhaust! I cant see the 3.55s being that much slower, I mean yeah I know they are a taller gear, but still!

I completly understand your point, koorbloh. I know its not a performance vehical, but neither is my mothers cobalt sedan and that thing would smoke me. I was just questioning it because that is pretty damn slow for having a road truck.
Thanks for your responses lghngblt02 and Eric. I was expecting something closer to the 7's. Ill have to take my truck to the industrial park and see what it does there. Its smooth concrete and I know I can get it up to 85 before I have to get on the brakes.
I am looking to do a fastman tb soon, and opening up the intake from the fender to the air box.
For wheels Im running stock with 28" tires so again stock. I wish I could redo the rear end, but I would also have to do the front and I dont have the funds to drop $1500+ in gears. I do have to remember that the truck is an 05 with 100k on it so the value is dropping by the day.
Are you guys running manuals or automatics?
