I had a 2000 Lightning, a 2008 Tundra, and now have a 2011 Ecoboost. My Lightning ran 13.53 at 101.5 mph, stock. My Tundra ran 13.97 @ 97 stock. I haven't run my Ecoboost yet, but it's not in the 13's. From 2005 to present, either the Tundra or the Ram is the fastest stock truck available, by virtue of offering the biggest motor in the RCSB 2wd truck. Oh wait, I forgot about the SRT10...

Ford does not offer the 6.2 or the EB in the RCSB 2wd truck, even IF the EB had more power than the Hemi or the 5.7 iForce.

Good point. I wonder why they built trucks like the Syclone, 454SS, Silverado SS, SRT10, and Lightning. Oh, it's because there's a market for them. Silly me.

The fact that the actual cabin is still structurally sound is great considering the high mechanism accident. Ford would hold up the same I'm sure but wouldn't matter how strong the truck is anyone in that accident would end up with broken bones.
