Not real sure of how much value this is, but I got in my Android based player and Torque Pro with the BT OBD-2 thingy, lol.

The truck has 331 miles on it, 89 octane. Reving to 2000k rpm and launching in 4WD Hi, I got 0-60 in 6.4 seconds and 1/4 mile in 15.4 seconds. I'm pretty sure I could launch harder...I just think the truck is a little 'green' for that.

So I don't really see much difference between the 13' and previous models....I did notice that the highest Boost I saw was about 14lbs and normally in the 12-13lb range.

And according to torque I have 776 lbs/tq....and 654 HP-----SO THATS DEF NOT RIGHT. I put in 5900lbs for weight....anyone know what it should be?

I know Livernois had 5313lbs for their FX4 6.5' bed truck on their Youtube video, and right at 5000lbs for the 5' boxed truck. By the numbers they posted for the weight, looked like they may have scaled the trucks...

5000 for a crew cab short bed 4x4? I'm sure it's a bit more than that...700-800lbs prolly.

4x4 scews weigh between 5600 to just shy of 6000 pounds. Depending on engine and wheelbase. This is based off of the spec sheet for the F150 from trucktrend.com

Excellent I'll update my numbers and see if the HP and TQ numbers come in closer to realistic. What are most people seeing as far as boost? I know my 13" Interceptor's turbos got more noticeable at around 5K miles.

My truck weighted 5960lbs on a certified scale. 100% fuel (36 gal), no one in the truck.

When I scaled mine (FX4, SCrew, 5.5' box, ecoboost) and no one in it, I was damn near 6000#'s (actually right at 5990) with a 1/4 tank of fuel. I scaled it several times and it was always right there.

EDIT, this was completely stock
