I have a 2004 4.2 Single cab with an auto trans and i decided to count how fast i got 0-60 in. When I reached 50mph, i was already at 9 seconds(keep in mind i was counting in my head). Are our trucks really this slow??? Whats up with that?

 

i wouldnt be surprised if they were, ill try timing mine with the cd player today maybe

oddly enough, i drove my granpas 4 door 5.4 and it was just as slow as mine

 

I have an 2002 extended cab v6 and ive timed it at about 13 and a 1/4. Thats using a stop watch and my good friend who is a highschool offensive linemen riding shot gun

 

Counting in your head does not work.

First, the driver cannot do the counting and
second, the counting has to be done out loud.

My brother rode with me and did the counting.

The bad news is he is a stutterer.
The good news is I have a three second truck.

 

Yes the 4.2 engine is slow, but has potential with a lil help. If you want acceleration, put some different gear ration on it, and you'll notice the difference.

 

i would but my gas milage is bad enough. i wish i could just swap it with like a mustang 5 speed auto...hmmm

 

IM NOT VERY SURE ABOUT MY 0-60, BUT ITS AROUND the 7's i guess.

My 1/4 time...
