Default 2003 Boss F-150

A guy in my town just got a brand new boos f-150. Its a real nice looking truck but he has told everyone that it runs 11.9's! I thought that was pretty hilarious! Does anyone know the specs and how fast they are?

I just busted out laughing when he said that in town! I think I am going to race him to make him look like a total ***! How many cars would I have to give him(realistically) to run him? Does anyone know the specs and specific times on these things? The only thing they have going for them is that they look pretty good.

Does anyone know what these cost?? I can imagine it would be pretty close to the price of a lightning in some places. Watch out for those Stage 3 and 4 though.... they come with 20's and 2-tone leather!

Hey Pewter, ever decide on what exhaust to get????
By the way that truck looks like a half *** wannabe lightning. So just show him your tailights and make him regret paying 36 g's for a slow azzz ford!!!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Someone had one out at HRP than ran a BIG OL 16.xx. OOOOOOHH SCARY!!!!! If he payed close to 30k, he's a MORON and you should stay as far away as possible to avoid getting bit by the "stupid bug". If they have the same chassis as the Lightning, they are around 4600#. 11.9, he must have been talking about the 1/8. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="gr_tounge.gif" />

Hey, I'm slow too.

That is awful performance to advertise like that. Of course, most people are clueless about real performance.

Go to f-150online.com and do a search on CMNTMXR81 (that's me). I ran into one that is a local around here. Essentially they are nothing more than a 5.4 with an appearance package.

I ended up running him with my 8.1 about a month or two ago. I thought I was gonna get wasted. Well to put it mildly, up until about 50, we were pretty much door to door. After that he slightly started pulling on me.

Oh BTW, I had my 18' 1,500lb MacLander flatbed car trailer hitched up behind me on top of the at least 1,500lbs of extra mass truckwise I need to move. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" />

Has anyone every seen one of these things run something or have a pretty good idea what they run? My friends that wants to run him has 22's. How much should this knock off his 1/4 times? He has a gmc c3 sierra that ran 15.8 when he had 17's on it.
