Why Texas??

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...491387713&rd=1

you texas guys always have all the trucks for sale, i would say at least 50% of trucks on ebay are from texas, f-150's, rams, etc. I would buy that L if it was closer.

Thats kinda funny,

I was just thinking that all the good used parts for sale are in Jersey and NY (or Florida).

Nobody wants to ship to us down here in 'lil ole Texas.

remember, everything is bigger in texas! including the previous owner's hind quarters aparently.

on a semi related note, here's another interesting Texas truck on ebay.

a Twin Turbo Hennessey SRT-10 truck...

for the low low price of $88,000! (no bids)

Vehicle Description

2004 Dodge Ram SRT10 with Hennessey Venom 800 Twin Turbo Engine Upgrade

This is quite possibly the quickest and fastest street-legal pick-up truck in the world! It is also one of the quickest accelerating vehicles you can buy period. From a 60 mph roll to 120 mph it is quicker than a stock 2004 Viper SRT10, 2004 Porsche 911 Twin Turbo and a 2004 Lamborghini Murciellago. All from a 5300 lb. truck that can haul your stuff around town comfortably.

Hennessey Performance Engineering is producing a limited number of these vehicles. Here are the specs:

Power Output:

800 hp @ 5,200 rpm
900 lb-ft Torque @ 3800 rpm

Acceleration:

0-60: 3.8 sec.
1/4 mile: 11.5 sec. @ 125 mph
that's it? 11.5? my truck will bitch slap that truck.

later,
chris
