Default How fast should my truck be??






I was wondering how fast I should expect my truck to be since I don't have an instruments to accurately measure it. I have a 2005 F150 XL Regular Cab 6'5" box 5.4L V8. I don't carry around any excess weight in it and have 20s on it with 275/45/R20 tires. I'm guess it should be faster than my sisters 08 crew cab.

17 seconds if you accelerate lightly.

[MENTION=84967]scobar[/MENTION] What's the point of making comments that are not relevant to what the post is about. Why waste YOUR time and mine? Do you really have nothing better to do?? 0-60 times are calculated at WOT not as soft as you can possibly press on the gas pedal.

My 15 mustang gt is rated for 4.4 seconds.

A classic beetle is rated slower 0 to 60 than it is in the 1/4.

I'd say you're in the middle somewhere.


Otherwise a quick Google search reveals this:

[MENTION=177217]CobraJeff27[/MENTION] Thanks for the link but I don't see any trucks that match up with the same specs as mine, being that Extended cabs and Crew cab with 4x4 must certainly weigh more than mine.

Well it is a truck, but to help you determine it will be around the 8 second area. My 07 FX2 5.4 Supercrew, 3.55 gears, true dual exhaust, Gotts mod with AEM dryflow and Edge Evolution converted to a Gryphon will hit low 7's.
