Question Can we start a 2015 1/4-mile times and mods threads please.....anyone?

I see all these threads with almost every topic but have yet to see anyone baseline one of these new trucks outside of the magazine test.

Can someone get to the track and post up results please?

I'm looking for private owner results since most of those early tests were PRE-production trucks. Also, to many things don't line up with many of the tests. The trucks should be considerably quicker than the magazines are printing with a true 300-700lb. weight loss based on what others have run.

You are also forgetting about two little Turbo's..lol. Put two Turbo's on the 5.0 and look how ugly the results would change the other direction...

Yea, but then it would be unreliable :trolling:

I agree, the numbers are strange.

None of those are 1/4 mile times and are not relevant to the OP's request.

6.5 seconds in normal mode and 7.1 in sport mode? That doesn't make any sense at all. It makes you question any of their numbers.
