Traded in my 6.2l v8 f150, having the v6 sound piped in is a bit weird for me. The v8 you could hear without assistance... don't get me wrong... the power is there and all but nothing sounds as good as a well tuned 8cyl
How about a naturally aspirated v12 screaming to redline? That’s is a exhaust note to drool over a v8 is nice but wow...

Finally in a position in my life after years of living month to month to be able to get pretty much everyone's dream truck.... I'm absolutely stoked about it and love everything about it except the sound of the v6.

You know, if it's just about listening to V8 noises, you can buy one heck of a stereo for $70k ...

are these 2 facts mutually exclusive?
;)

nope. not at all.

Randy Savage did a fly-by in his gintani svj when I was in a buddy's car. All I can say is YES.


Wait till y'all hear the MercedesAMG Project One in person. SOOOOOOOO much YES. I can't say how or why, but I have been in one and it's the first car that I've ever been in that I'd consider buying, even if it meant living in a cardboard box for the duration of ownership.

Have been look through the forum here and am honestly astounded. Some of the mods folks have done cost a mint and make them happy and they if they can afford them and makes them happy, Good on em... that's not what confuses me though.. its the number of "I can do that way cheaper" bodge jobs on 50-80k machines that were pretty damn good in the first place. Little duct tape on my masserati will hold that 5$ antenna on just fine.. Wtf????

I'm not exactly well off but maintain the mindset that you get what you put it in. I may spend 100 bucks on something you can make for 12, but I don't have to take the time to source it build it and fit it three or four times to save 3 bucks....

If you can do something better and cheaper, great but don't put others down because we may not have the time or inclination to be imaginative and would rather enjoy the time driving the trucks like they were built to be driven.

Word to the wise guys... duct tape, baling wire and zip ties are great on the trail.. keep them in your truck tool box by all means. But when the first thought when you have a mod in mind goes to one of those options... buy a Chevy


Sorry folks for this rant... i had just quit smoking was only two days in and everything was pissing me off.. Having a dozen beers in me didnt help either.... If I offended all I can offer is an apology...

Lol, been there. I’ve quit smoking about 10 times. When I’m quitting, I can’t drink either. Booze and smokes, and coffee and smokes....can’t have one without the other.
