    there isnt any new Boss f-150's, unless someone made a "package" for them, which i seen, its more an appearance package. Roush has made F-150, but I havent seen any newer ones, the only newer supercharged F-150 have been Saleen F-150's

    I thought it was an aftermarket built truck similar to ours, thought it ran a high 13-14 second 1/4 and it had upgrades like brakes, body panels and 22's. When I read about it I though it was a similar truck like the 10 except it was supercharged, if I recall it was 500 hp as well.

    they were supposed to be 450hp, i believe, and they are SC but my buddy's was a turd that barely put down 300hp to the tires... had it at the dealer and after tuning, a pulley swap, and 6 months of fannagling (sp?) with ford they got it back to "factory" spec... and it was still a turd lmao:D

    From what I read, they were nothing fast, I smoked a two door about a year ago, couple of kids with a temp tag and a shit load of gauges on the door pod. I stopped to put air in my kids bike, they were BSing with some friends, little did they know I always carry a warm bottle of spray, lol. I should start posting all my kills like everbody else, also have an M5 on a the highway on ramp.

    You would have no problem beating him, I didn't even floor it till I heard the supercharger squeel and I still blew by him. I make them slow down to at least 30 if its a rolling race, at least 60 if I'm in 2nd gear.

    Boss trucks are like the HIV, the world would be better of without such a thing.

    Saleen f150's were a nice concept. But due to the weight(newer f150 platform than the L and being an extended cab), it's slow.

    pool guy, with that tank trapping a beastly 119, there isnt much off the lot that will come close to you. Truck on !:rock:

    One of the sergeants in my now former ROTC department has a Roush Stage 3 F150 and he wants zero to do with my truck. I've tried to trick him into going to the track, just to hang out and "watch" other cars and such, with the hopes he'd take the bait and then I'd ride him until he agreed to go at it at the track, but he won't do it. Loser

    And speaking of the Roush F150's, they are ok looking, but like the Lightning, they have dinky little wheels, brakes that look like the size of a small car's brakes, and the hood scoop isn't even functional and the exhaust on them looks like just regular straight pipes out the back like any generic truck would have.
