Default 06(07?) GMC Z-71 Crew Cab = RoadKILL

I usually drive pretty slow and dont really get riled by nobody, but today on the way back to work from Lunch something happened...LOL

I am at a red light. Center lane. In about 300Yds the right lane is turn only and the left is the same, so the only straight lane is the one I am in. Well this white crew cab z-71 pulls up beside me, I dont know if he is turning right or not so I pay no attention to him. Well the light changes and this guy jumps, so I am thinking, 'nah, this aint happening like this' so I ease down on the HEMI and ease up and past him, someone pulls in front of me, and I slow down, he goes shooting by the truck in front of me and barely misses the curb I was going to have him run over.

So the truck in front of me eases down the road and turns, I just keep driving knowing that the guy in the gmc's friends are laughing at him, cause he knew he was beat. Well I come up to another light and here he is sitting there. I stop, in the right lane, I have to turn about 250 yards are so ahead. The light turns and I just sit there. He mashes it, I mash it, and I jumped ahead of him and the drove off. I felt bad. He was in a brand new truck and thought it was all that and some biscuits and he got smoked by a stock HEMI. He still had the dealer tag on it with the date in Sharpie(R). LOL.

What an A$$. ....

I dont know if they make a 1500 Crew, it didnt have any lower badges on it, I didnt check the wheels to see if they were 8 lug or not.

Oh well. Back to work....

Very nice!
Very polite of you to let him launch first before laying the smackdown.

i agree, today on MY lunch break i beat a Camaro. It was badged like an SS and has dual exhaust but I dont think it was racing because I pulled on him very easily. I think it may have been the Z28 with a new hood and some decals. Something wasnt right, but i know he was racing because I asked him if he wanted to race and he said Yeah. We even honked three times and took off. I had him by the *****. God damn, I should have tried to find out what he did to it.

I usually dont even bother, but he was a punk, with some friends in his 'new' truck. Then he got punked by a HEMI. I bet his friends ragged him good. LOL. I know I would have. I wish I had the 3.92s in this Ram, then it would have been silly.

I will say that the 265s GoodYear Fortera's do not spin....LOL. The whole front end picked up, I keep trying to get a supercharger, for pulling the camper and all, but the wife hasnt fallen for that one yet.....
