| The Conversation Pit This is where EVERYTHING else goes. No subject is too mundane. How's the weather in your area? Did your kid cut his first tooth? Really, what do you think about the President? And don't get me started on Cummins and Duramaxes. Have at it! |

I had an 05 F150 STX 4.6 I only had an exhuast on it and i still noticed the same thing about it. In Ga on 75 S you can open it up a little due to the Speed limit being higher and I always got great numbers going to and from Atlanta

Jack, you are so right; abuse will definitely reduce the life of your vehicle.
I used to harass a couple friends who beat the daylights out of their cars. One had gone through several engines, transmissions, and even the rear end all the while I still had all the original components in my Buick, which I regularly ran pretty hard. Sure, My Buick wouldn't get up to speed as quickly as his Chevy, but it could run at speed with it all day long. As my dad had pointed out, there's a difference between running them hard, and abuse. When I refer to beating my truck, I just run it harder than usual. Out of all the vehicles I had, I only broke parts in one vehicle -- and AMC; which should explain why it broke.
