Default 2005 f150 ??

Ok I was trying my truck out. For some reason it will not make a stand still. Only if the road isbwet or if its on a pavement driveway. Anyone know why or if they have this same problem. Ibwas told my catalytic convertes were bad. I highly doubt this is the reason why. Please anyone chime in

Its because it is a 2005 F150, not a top fuel dragster! LOL. Okay maybe not funny, but why does it need to spin the tires? Trucks arent meant to spin their tires, they are meant to hook up and put torque to the ground.

That's what I learned with mine. Tried to be a cool *** and barked em just a little and that was all. It was a bit embarrassing actually. So I figured I didn't need to roast the tires I paid good money for anyway lol

Lol. Too funny. Anyways I just wanted to see if I could smoke the tires out. Switched from a chevy to a ford. It was just for fun

in my 5.4l I can (I'd like to pretend that brake stands, burnouts, and tire squeel are immature and I'm above that, but I'm not)... actually with the 5.4l if i'm on any type of incline whatsoever I can spin 'em by just hitting the gas a little too hard (honestly not trying to spin 'em) with my wife's 4.6l it can barely do it in the rain.
