One time, at band camp; no wait, that’s a different story.
Back when we were shopping for our last truck in 2006, I was seriously considering a Ford V-10 gasser. I drove two, one with a manual / 4.30 and one with an auto / 3.73 (IIRC). The 4.30 was a rocket and the 3.73 was dog. I actually got out pulled by a 4-cyl Camry on the interstate in Birmingham in that 3.73. I couldn’t imagine driving that 3.73 with 4,000 lbs in the bed and the wind drag of a TC.
