No one has tuned them yet. (most Tuners are not even doing the 17 5.0's yet!!) Stock RCSB 5.0 6 speed 17's were running 13.9. Extra HP, TQ, and better gearing =5 tenths? I believe it. The 10 speed works very well with the 5.0.

Most of us who like to go fast do like options, but Regular cab is the preferred way. Regular cabs are much quicker, usually tow & haul more, handle and maneuver much better. I only need 2 seats, so RCSB is perfect for me. I would not buy a SC or CC unless I had to. Now if Ford would just build a SC'd 5.0 Lightning, I'd buy one today. Lightnings are always loaded with options, but RCSB.
