Default some fun in my i6 TB

i raced this kid in a 94 altima, odd story though. first time i was actually working and had 2 of my helpers with me, but almost empty tank, we slowed down then hit it and he slowly pulled from me, which actually kinda surprised me. but i dont really care, its my work cruiser. so later the altima kid comes to my house asking me to do some work on his car, and i said first give me another run with me TB. but this time i had a full tank of gas. so we pull out onto the street and its deserted so i stopped and honked it off and totally destroyed him. really bad. then when he caught up he nailed it again as did i, we were even for a little bit then i slowly pulled to about 3 cars. so whatever, nothing really interesting but kinda funny, of all the 6 cylinder suv's out there, i really like the TB. i have pulled 21mpg fully loaded with family and luggage.

the trailblazers with the i6 do pretty good... they're a bit heavy but have no problem getting up to the 115 speed limiter... surprises me how they get there...

Its cool!!! I would'nt know the diffenece between the 2 if it was debadged!!! I would have thought that I "almost" lost to a regular TB





P.s. those TB SS's are sex on wheels! Before I got my V I came across a young kid that had one while I was on my way home!! Kid almost wiped out trying spin out in a U-Turn!!! I felt bad for the TB SS!!!
