    I don't think my '05 knows that, it's got a lot of get up and go when I want it too.

    When I have enough gasoline, highway on ramps can be quite fun. Few things are as fun as a spirited run from zero to speed limit.

    Rural road in the middle of nowhere or highway in downtown, road racing is illegal, stupid and reckless with complete disregard for the human life and risks a reasonable person knows are there.

    GTFO and take your illegal fail with you.

    As far as actual horsepower gains from cold air and exhaust, you're looking at about 10-15 rwhp. Which, on a 4k lb brick of a truck, equates to just about nothing. :) Also, the double cab only weighs about 175 lbs more according to toyota, even though it looks like its so much heavier.

    Critics & haters: I grew up in a part of rural AZ and half of my friends are farmers. The driving in my post was on private land. Not only was there no traffic, other cars were not even in sight. I'm not some 18yr old with an ego trying to race through towns and post about it so i can think i'm cool. Regardless, I'll keep my future farm road driving to myself.
