Slow Lightning Driver
Slow Lightning Driver
Hey, I was wondering if you guys ever drive your trucks real slow, say under the speed limit. I was going to work today, and there was a truck holding on of the lanes of traffic up. It was a 6 lane road. I knew it was a Ford because of the Flaresides. When I got closer, with me not even doing the speed limit, I saw something that was funny, a SVT emblem. And then I saw the Lightning Emblem. Here was someone with one the fastest trucks around and he was driving almost 10 mile per hour UNDER the speed limit. It was strange that I even saw an L, because they are very uncommon here, like maybe 10 or 15 in the whole city that I have ever seen.
Do any of you guys ever drive like that or was this just someone who does not know how to handle the L?

I drive slow around town. Usually one 3-5 above the speed limit. It's usually because when I'm driving in my L, it's just to cruise. Of course whenever I go on trips I usually cruise between 90-100 so....
he was only doing about 35 in a 45 mph. He finally got into a turning lane. He may have been lost or something.
It looked like a new one to me, but I really don't know much about the L's since I am stuck with a little ol V6.

I'd say my normal driving habbits are aggressive but not crazy.
I like to feel the power, I like to know it's there, but I also try and just blend in and save the REAL DEAL for the track.
OR A GOOD STREET RACE of course.
I got to say that this is the first ride I ever had that I enjoy hitting red lights with. THEN I GET TO TAKE OFF AGAIN

Nothing like being the first one at the light too
My guess is, he just got a ticket for doing 105 in a 65. I know I always drive a little slower after a ticket, at least for 10 to 15 minutes.

I thought I was the only one who enjoys getting caught at red lights. As a matter of fact, I brake hard on yellow lights
