"I have spun the tires several times at 60 to 70 MPH passing cars on rough dry pavement."
I smoke crack too. However, I only post on the forum when drunk or buzzed or sober.
When I get the crack pipe out I turn off the PC.

I have the eb 4x4 with the 3:15 I wanted the mileage. I do have a 96 f250 7.3 if I have a tractor to pull. Pulling the boat or small trailer with the eb is fine.

I would expect nothing less from one of the few 5.0 drivers with ECO envy.
I said on a rough road, I also have the E locker so its not difficult to spin one wheel when you hit uneven or cracked pavement. Thanks for your useless post though. Get the 3.73's and have fun with it.

Mine actually goes down on the highway with the cruise set between 70 and 75. Luckily I drive on a lot of 45 to 55 country roads and it goes back up.
