Default 03 Cobra vs Quad Cab Dodge Ram

Today was the first gorgeous day we have had in a while so I decided to take the long route home after I got off work. I was cruising down the freeway at 65mph with the windows down and the radio up enjoying the fresh air until I was about halfway home. I notice this truck was starting to pass me and I hear a nice exhaust note coming from it as well so I look a little closer and recognize the truck as I've seen it around town cruising at the local spot. I've seen the truck picking on stock 2V GT's several times. At this point he had started jumping at me and took off for a split second then slowed back down. I smiled and gave him the thumbs up once he got back beside me and he took off again as soon as I do so I sped up to 80 and got next to him once again. This time I pulled it down to 4th gear and signaled for him to go. I notice the nose of his truck lifted very slightly and was bairly inching out on me so I eased into the throttle to keep pace next to him waiting for him to actually go. I finally looked down at the speedometer and noticed we were at 100mph and realized he actually was racing me. I chuckled looked over at him waved and mashed the gas. Instantly jumped 1,2,3,4 cars out by 120 then I let out. I slowed back down to 65 and as he was coming back next to me he was in the process of rolling up his passenger window. I usually wouldn't waste my time on trucks but since I've seen him picking on the local 2V's I had to show him that not every mustang is slow. Poor ole guy thought I was just another GT.

LoL, that's funny.

I would say good kill; but it was a puppy kicking.
