One of my findings from creepin around on the F150 forums:

Quote:
This will not be tolerated. Trucks are big and heavy and have speed limiters for a reason. If you find it necessary to hold a grudge match with someone to prove who's "manhood" is bigger, take it to the track and don't risk the life of others on the road.

If you post a thread like the one below, expect it to be closed. If you continue to post threads like the one below, expect to experience some consequences (ie: time off).

________

Quote:
This guy i know has been talking **** about his truck everytime i see him, claims his truck will smoke my fx4. So today I told him lets race an get it over with.

I dont know if anybody has noticed but if you press the gas pedal at the very top it revs and accerlates wayy faster then if you press it at the bottom or middle.

So we lined up and did the 3 beep an go, right off the line i was pulling on him till around 90 when i proved my point an slowed down lol. After the race he was sooo pissed haha. Figured id share that with you guys.

________

This also has to be edited to include "I found a way to get around my speed limiter and now my truck can go 112mph... here's where I did it and a pic.

Examples of reckless driving &/or exhibition of speed will also not be tolerated!

Any questions or concerns, feel free to PM myself or any other moderator.

Random thought for the day: Today was the third time i've driven in really heavy rain since having the pilot super sports. Granted I left TC and VSC on but these tires seriously make it feel like I'm on dry pavement. No slip when turning or coming from a dead stop and the stopping distance while going is still great.

Yeah. It's like when you reply, but you don't have to delete the other email addresses before you type the one you want to send it to.

I JUST went through this with FatherInLawBuzzard. He had some photos he had gotten via email he wanted to send to other family members and called me to find out whether he should print them out on his printer, then scan them, or would it be cheaper to send them to Walmart have them print them, then scan them.

He has been using email since the mid '90s. I had to put him on mute to keep him from hearing me laughing myself to tears.

humfrz
Yeah, it would be people making their own rules, bending them to whatever they want. Godless, basically.
