    Hmmm.
    I'm pretty sure an F-150 isn't 5,000 pounds.
    My F-350 dually, 4 door, extended bed, 7.3l diesel is 5500 pounds....

    I also would have thought you could have taken him before 4th gear....this is interesting!
    Cheers,

    Hey Steve, just double-checked the curb weight of the F150 Super Crew ... just a hair under 5000 lbs. 4912 to be exact.

    Yeah, I thought 60-90 in 4th would do it, too...maybe he modded the truck a bit ... friend of mine into racing says its easy to do and there's a lot of power left on the table from the factory these days.
    Former Ride:

    Latest Addition:
