Jeezus that thing is massive.

[Big_Fat]

haha my friend was apparently talking to the owner he said it has 1200 pounds or torque

That truck is pretty gay, looks like Ass. the biggest ricer of the truck world.

Thats what happens when your family owns a company and they pay for all the mods to the company vehicle.

I've seen my share of modded trucks up north, and most all of them look better than this thing:barf:

Just a suggestion: Remove the corolla picture with the underglow if you took it at your place of business... pretty sure the owner wouldn't be to happy with you posting pics of his ride while he was getting work done to his car (could create a bad rep for you company).

If you saw it on the street, that's a whole other story.

i had a f650 in at my work the other day that makes that truck look small i will try and find pics

[btimbit]

Saw the 2Fast2Furious Lancer last night. Chuckled a bit, was going to take a pic but I guess I didn't need too:rofl:

[MGCM]

those are pretty sweet trucks. Too bad they don't have great power though from what I've heard.

Is this the one?

1200 lbs of torque is easy to make with a Cummins, not really anything spectacular there. There's a D-Max here in Alberta pushing 2800 ft lbs, 1700ish HP, 9 second 1/4 mile.

Funny how the powerstroke isn't offered in the big trucks, tells you that the cummins is much better than the powerstroke.

yeah, but now that Ford finally scrapped their relationship with International I'm curious to see what the new 6.7L will be doing. We've only had 5 come through our dealer. The extra power is definately noticeable. 390 Hp and 730 ft-lbs out of the box isn't too shabby at all....time will tell.

Yep those are impressive stock numbers indeed, but the dpf clogs right up after an hour or two of idling, and up North sometimes turning the truck off is not an option. Plus you're locked into dealership hassles for simple things like oil changes. So sure, delete the dpf and void the warranty. Not a great idea either. I know quite a few people up North that aren't one bit impressed with the dpf bullshit. How many of you know that burning off a clogged dpf burns more fuel than a non-dpf diesel engine just running the way it was meant to? Okay, let's burn more fuel to make what's coming out of the tailpipe pretty. Gotta keep the tree huggers happy I guess. How much longer until Cummins are required to design urea injection into the exhaust like the new Powerstroke and D-Maxes? They're designed to shut down when you run out of urea. Gotta fill it up with urea every 5000 kms. Gimme a fuckin' break already. There's a reason why a p-pumped 12 valve circa 1993 6BT Cummins engine still gets 25+mpg, that's because it's a good thing left alone. Yes it's loud, and smoky, but 25mpg is 25mpg and you don't see these new POS's getting that. You want a clean burning diesel? Get a VW.

A note if any diesel haters read this, take a good look around you, because every single item in your life was on a diesel or heavy fuel powered vehicle at some point on it's way to you. Every last little thing.

I'm a diesel guy and I HATE that truck. I see it all the time. The thing that I don't understand is why the guy would even bother getting a pilot truck like this, or even wasting the money on accesories for a pilot truck.

heres the truck i was working on
(hope this works)

Umm Because it is a pilot truck?
Its belongs to the son of the owner of Singer Specialized Trucking. If I was building a truck, I would probably find a way to get the business to pay for it as well, by using it as rolling advertising and using it as a work vehicle the odd time.
