People are always willing to help, next time you want to ask a question, leave out the "I'm 16" part though, just asking for bad responses.

Keep it simple

You can't compare your truck to car, as far as performance is concerned. So his is faster. But he can't haul anything and def can't go thru the mud. Apples to oranges.
