Re: 152 MPH in a pickup behind a Porsche
That lightning does sound nice kinda odd to see MPH as a measure of speed in Germany... I guess it's odd to see a Ford f-150 in German too.

Re: 152 MPH in a pickup behind a Porsche
What you're hearing is the supercharger in the L. It 'screams' when it's compressing the air into the intake.
I don't think the Porsche was in "third gear" at 152 MPH !
There are portions of the Autobahn that are unrestricted as to MPH. Btw, that L is 'tricked' out with Brembo GT brakes, etc. There is at least one L that hit's 165 MPH as its owner competes in the Silver Dollar Road Race in Nevada. His L is modified severely with aero and suspension mods to to keep it on the road. He's won his class a few times

Dan, that is sweet! I go to Germany every March, and the Autobahn is crazy. I love the sound of the supercharger on that truck!

Thanks Zander. I love it too .
Here's mine.
Yes, that's me and my L running the 1/4.
The silver 'brick'!
