| V6 Ford Ranger thinks he has what it takes | Today I am sitting at a light minding my own business. Cruising in my 02 F-150. A V6 Ford Ranger pulls up next to me and starts throwing the revs at me. We take off and I pull on him by about a truck length (extended cab) and we hit the twisties. I know my truck can handle what we were doing so I slowed just a bit for the twisties and we moved through them. He's gaining on me and then we straighten out. I punch it and leave his half truck behind. I slow down as we approach 80 on a regular street. Not something I would advise doing in a truck BTW. I have made my point and I slow down. And then the r*cer flyby. He tosses his hands up in victory after I have slowed down like he accomplished something. We ran for a quarter mile as it was. I have no idea what gave him the idea that a Ford Ranger was fast. Oh well. My girlfriend who was with me at the time thought it was funny. | | |
