I presume that F150 ain't getting round the corners very quickly.

I reckon optimising for straight line speed is a strange goal.

Right, there's no form of racing that is a straight line, is there.

Regardless, optimizing a pick up for 0-60 time is a strange goal, unless you have some express desire to launch 2x4s a great distance in a complicated way.

  • Optimizing for it? Probably not. But side effect of it's ability to tow 10,000 pounds that also makes it hella fun to drive? Absolutely.

  • You are dangerously close to initiating a new sport.

    Someday, commentators filling air time on ESPN's "Need to Yeet" may bring up this comment as "the Casual Remark That Started it All".
