- Thread starter GT Premi

I’d say get what you want and whatever will make you happy. As long as the vehicle has a warranty more power to you, but once that warranty expires get rid of it ASAP.
On a side note:
Hopefully they’ve improved their spark plug life more than what it was on the Panamera I worked on earlier this year.
Pick your poison.

I own a 2017... They weigh 7500+
Compared to whats listed they arent performance. Not even close. They dont handle. They dont stop. They arent fast.
Thats awesome. Love those things. I dont own one but do have seat time in one and I will have to disagree. Stock they are plenty peppy and brakes are great. Very easy to make these things quick. They arent a sports car but they offer plenty of performance.
When I say they offer plenty of performance, I dont mean at the road course, that should be obvious. Look at what they are designed to do and look at what they can do.
Look what he's shopping it against. In that realm they offer no performance.
I've been playing the diesel game since 2002 when we were struggling to make 400hp on an obs 7.3.
For a big truck, these move. For a big truck, the brakes work But if you have to caveat the vehicle, its likely not performance.
These trucks are mid 7s 0-60 at best
Out of the two I just feel the Porsche is still a step above the Benz
Agree I just rode in a 19 SD and it felt like a lifeless dog, performance my ass lol. Im sure it would tow nice though
It ****ing tows awesome. Zero effort.
Definitely.
If I had to pick between the two,.......PORSCHE all day long.
“Lifeless dog”.... lmao
That goes right along with what I said in the OP about people's perception of "fast". Everybody has different experiences that shape their opinions. What feels fast to one person might feel dog slow to the next person. And I think my making my comment about the Trackhawk is what originally sent folks reeling. For me, my perception of fast is a modded, lightened and tightened GT500. Obviously, an SUV that weighs +/-1900 lbs more with less HP is going to feel and be slower. But because of the Hellcat folklore, I was "tricked" into expecting it to feel faster.
Im aware of how they react to tuning but if you think that truck in stock form is anything but slow... I dunno what you are smoking. Not even relatively speaking... Its just slow
How much of the towing experience is directly related to the trailer? Would the experience have been different if a cheaper/less expensive trailer were used?
I can comprehend the issue around the weight, but is there something to be said about how that weight is managed?
BTW....if not already obvious, I know nothing about towing. The article is an interesting read and directly relates to the OP, minus the "S".
I am sorry bro. Not slow. You need to learn to push the throttle ALL the way in.
Go to the gym, do some squats and calf raises, eat some steak and give it another try. Report back findings.
Let’s be real the F250 is an amazing work horse that can come with some nice trim in upper levels but it is no nimble vehicle like the Porsche. You’re comparing a sledgehammer to a scalpel lol.
HA HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Probably another one of your typical troll opinions, dont care.
Plus with the extra size, minivans are not only faster they feel way faster haha. Whatever
So let me get this right... you want the " Fun" road trip vehicle to be the vehicle with the same horsepower as a mustang gt but 1000 pounds more.
damn those other "slow" 700 horsepower vehicles
damn those other "slow" 700 horsepower vehicles
