Not in the least.

My "slug" ran a 14.6 @ 94 mph on some heavy tires and wheels and the truck was bone stock. What other truck is that quick and can 18-20 mpg. Not trying to start a argument, but I've driven the ecoboost, 5.7 tundras, and hemi Rams. The only one that came close in power was the tundra, but it came at the price of crappy fuel mileage.

14.6 at a perfect sea level track in Houston..... thus low 15s anywhere else on the planet, namely up here like a lot of other new trucks.

 

Here's my question for you. Why do you care about the fact I think they are a slug? If you like your truck and think it's the fastest thing out there, awesome. The reason I say this because it would not matter what I answered back to you I am already wrong... so what's the point lol. I drive a John Deere garden tractor... it's a monster in the quarter mile and cuts grass to boot!

 

I don't like them and don't find them fast... sorry.

Well said! I owned a tundra and would pass almost everything but a gas station. It's still hard to believe the power of these truck along with the fuel mileage. I've smiled numerous times thus far.

Like you said, fast is relative, but this is a forum correct? So thats what it's for, to talk about trucks and give your opinion. I doubt he actually cares that YOU think it's a slug. But most people probably wouldn't consider it a slug as far as trucks go. But hey, it's all relative.

Aww I see, you're just trolling trying to stir the pot. Fact of the matter is, it is the fastest factory truck out there. So exactly what do you drive then that far superior than the ol 6.2 slug? And yes I could care less if he thinks it's a slug, I was simply curious because he made a pretty bold statement about the most powerful gas motor available in light trucks.

Not trolling.... that's exactly what your post above is. I am just stating an opinion on an open forum. And as such what I drive is none of your damn business! Why? Like I said what does it really matter... you are confident I am wrong long before I ever write an answer thud wasting my time. I have owned and drove every manufacturers truck now at this point. I drove a bunch back to back including a 6.2 max trailer gm and it was less than impressive. Dunno what else to say.

LOL, exactly, trolling. Probably because you drive some prehistoric piece of shit. Come on now, name a faster current production gasoline factory truck.....That's right, you can't. Why, because there isn't one. So once again, to justify your statement, what do you drive, and what do you feel is a more powerful, stronger, better motor/truck combo?? I truly am interested. I simply asked a question to you, and you got defensive quick. Butthurt much??

Yep sure bud.... if you want a troll go look in a mirror. You are the exact reason why stating an opposing opinion is a waste of a persons time. You start replying like a child having a temper tantrum immediately because you can't be beaten, you can't vr wrong. You are the fastest! My oldest ride is an 05, 2 2013's and a 2015. Pretty prehistoric indeed. I would love to say line them up so I could prove how wrong you are but it's always got to be a guy that lives in the southern most point of another country that has a problem. But hey... enjoy your truck!

 

And don't forget I'm your next reply to reiterate how much of a troll I am and that I must be broke and drive old piles of garbage to read enforce your statement.

Your blanketed statements speak volumes, I simply asked what you feel is a better truck/motor combo.You have yet to answer. I believe you also first cursed were condescending to me for asking a simple question that once again, you won't answer. Why are you on a GM Trucks website running your mouth and obviously trying to get a rise out of people? I've backed my statements with facts, you've yet to offer anything of the such.

To add a different take, I have had 3 different 5.3, 3.42 trucks in 3 years, and I think they are plenty fast. Mainly I want my truck to jump off the line, like crossing a busy road, and my 5.3 really does that well. Any more pick-up and the TCS will negate it anyway.

Pretty simple bud. I own GM trucks too.. just not brand loyal and think they are some rocket sled. Anyone else could ask me and I would answer but you in particular would just have a mental meltdown about it and tell me i am wrong.... which you have demonstrated... so consider it a favour. Have a good day.

Sorry... this thread is closed for asking. Not to mention you will probably just follow me around now hoping I slip up. Oh well lol.
