    My Taco has shocked quite a few people with its ability to haul ass. That being said, I generally drive like a normal person, saving on gas.

    Also, Socalx91, street race discussions are not allowed here. Not only that, but street racing itself is pretty stupid. I know it may be fun to do, but its dangerous and pointless. Take it to the track son.

    well i dont mind and its my thread...anyone who doesnt like it can bounce on out...we are all adults and we understand that were responsible for our actions and there is no need for an adult to lecture another adult...but if those r the rules then the rules r rules let the mods handle it

    To be honest they're slow. I say this with a 4.0L v6 auto. But eh, it's snappy enough to be fun to drive.
