What is a tornado... I need some better gas mileage, I only get 13 MPG. I don't know how the rest of you get such good MPG.

I also heard that RED takes .5 sec off 0-60 times

And the bed shake takes another .5 sec off 0-60, less drag on the asphalt as the bed pulls the truck upwards during shake.

PS: For those of you who do not want the bed shake... Super glue some felt pads to the frame, really cuts down on the shake. But be careful, it might void your warranty!

Will the soundproofing material that has been removed for the XL, STX, and XLT in the 05 model affect this time in any way?
And you forgot the " WOW the FX4 is WAY better than the Lairiet, dont you all agree?"

That's damn funny... a creative blend of the bed shake 'issue' and the ashtray rattle thread...
