Default WOT Throttle... How often do you hit it?

Just wondering how often you guys hit WOT?

I find the odd time coming off an on ramp but driving around town you need some good space to really punch it.

We really don't have the open Baja style country where I live so that we can do 80 in an open area.

With the intake filter open it sure howels and turns heads when you do.

Over to you guys...

Unfortunately I don't really get a chance. Every now and then, if I am first at a red light, I will put it in manual mode and let it run out. I just imagine the guy behind me in the Eco-Boost thinking...damn...must be a 6.2!!! LOL

I would like to race an eb at the track. I don't even know anyone with one. My larger tires wouldn't help.

yeh...I was playing around with one the other day on the Beltway around DC. They seem to run pretty good, but turbo or not...there is no replacement for displacement.

Merging into the freeway and passing as well on the freeway, that's about it.

I hit it for fun a little too much, I hit it when i go to pass someone, and when i get on the highway, and sometimes just for fun, and to be loud and turn heads
