Gotta love Hennessey :)

520 lb-ft torque at 3200rpm!!!!! To the wheels. 0-60 in 5.6sec and 1/4 mile in 14.1 @ 97mph, pretty good for a truck ;)

I myself think it is over priced by at least double

Hennessey is absolutely amazing. I'm not into the truck upgrades as much, but the Dodge Viper Venom 1000 is one of the greatest things ever made by man (faster acceleration than a Bugatti Veyron) :drool2::drool2: .

When I read raptor for some reason I was thinking...

Some of these (http://www.pirate4x4.com/gallery/main.php/v/king-of-the-hammers-2010/Thursday/?g2_page=1)probably have close to that in HP!;eeky;

Exactly! This is a Baja Truck meant for going fast over unstable terrain, very cool. If you want something fast on the streets, why in the world would you buy a truck? Then you are playing catch up from the get go. It is like trying to make a car good for offroad use, basically in the end you end up with a truck that has a car body on it, if you start with something that was made with the purpose you are intending for it, then you are much better in the end. It really bugs me when people try to make something do what it was not meant to do by investing so much money in it. Like trying to drift a front wheel drive car, I mean come on just get a rear wheel drive car.
