Exactly, there isn't even a bump, because nothing happened!

Sorry to continue OT. Mine states that it is back in 4x2 mode but it doesn't actually shift out of 4x4 until I throttle back for a couple seconds.
I know, because the damned front diff whine continues until then.

So you say "there isn't even a bump" and then you say you "surely feel it"

Is the sky blue or is it not blue?

Crappy Ecoboosts start to have trouble spanking HEMI's once they have been tuned, modded, and have an entire less cab on them...

They were both RCSB right? Not following your post maybe.

Yeah, we were both RCSB's. I had my toolbox, taligate and spare tire still on. He did not. Plus, his truck is a 2WD with headers and I was in 4HI with the stock factory exhaust. He didn't begin to pull on me at all and I was ahead literally 'by a nose' until just after the 1/8-mile mark. With these conditions, I was very happy to get beat by .4 tenths by a 5.7 displacement Hemi.
