Yeah one of my old bosses built race cars and his wife's mustang does that when its 90 degrees. lol
Hmm, you might have improved air density if you suck in some snowflakes! :hehe:
I had a bad encounter with the day we had ice day a long time ago. I was messing around on my mountain bike and trying to slide so I hit the brake and insteak of breaking loose the back kept rolling and the front dug in. And I still dont think I slid. :disbelief:
Later found my back brake line was refrozen and my tires were in good shape. :hehe:
...somebody lied about the frozen stuff. lol

1. The bigger your cab the heavier your truck. Even standard cabs with a long box are lighter than a super cab with a short box.
2. The 4X4 drive train components add additional weight and rolling resistance
3. Gearing and torque control can make a big difference also.

FYI

Your right. Mines 4wd and I have Mud Tires.. Supercab short bed.. DOH!

I just wanted to point out that we needed to come back and do a reality check and post up our equipment.
Apples to apples is a whole lot better to compare than grapes to melons.

I realize it will add some time. But I thought the others had 4wd also. :shrug:
