Chevy vs. Ford

[Chuck_Norris]

They all suck I have a brand new F350 diesel. Before that a Dodge Diesel, before that a few Chevys. When I am in the mood for a new ride I buy from the company that comes closest to building what I want. You can get a lemon from any of them. Screw brand loyalty its silly.
 I ride a YFZ because its the baddest beotch out, if Susuki's new 450 due out this fall kicks aZZ guess what I'll be riding?

I am glad I am sitting on the side lines with this one, Holly Cow you guys can talk stuff crazy stuff,  Just like Chillin said If the suzuki is as bad as it says it is, I know what my next ride will be. FORD pays my bills so I am supporting my bread and butter

Well said Chuck. I am glad you are not one of those people that works for a company and talks about how much you hate it even though they give you benifits and such.

There you are................

As for bread and butter, Me to..........

They all have their good and bad and as long as they are man made, things will break eventually. I just hate the media when they let people know only parts of the whole story. If people are gonna put something down then they need to do a lot of research. Chuck, me and you usually know more then the media because we are in the business. The japs do make good 4 cylinder engines but they have not been making any V8's to know how long they will last and they have no track record. If you service them and take care of them they all will last a good long time and yes you may get a bad one every now and then but it is pretty rare. Just remember that all car lots you go to has service departments. Ask the salesman to show you it.

I remember the old days the wrost thing that can have to you in traffic was being in rush hour traffic  and looking back and seen in your rear view mirror Audi 5000 and in front of you is a ford pinto. And there you sit with your life in god hands.. who Know wants going to happen here.

Nice video Old School...  And nice (and I hate to say this) Mustang. 

Old School was showing you how fast that S10 would run. Blowed that Mustang away but we talk stock. I do have to say that the Ford 9 inch is the best rear but the 350 chevy is always in front of it when you want performance. HEHE


They don't call them Fordolets for nothing.

Yunt lets compare..  a strip only S10 = what, 2500lbs? AND with a built 408. Vs. a 3200lb streetcar with a little 281 c.i. motor with stock heads, cams, intake and bottom end. He's probably doubled my hp but I was with him for 330 feet. It wasn't showing how "fast" an s10 can be. It' just his pockets are deeper than mine.  You can do the same thing to a ranger with a nice 351 in it. I'm sure that that s10 didn't have OEM heads, cam and intake.

It drag racing it boils down to power vs weight ratio. But deep pockets do help.   

FWIW, I don't have a 9" I have an 8.8 in my mustang. Works just as good.  -Mark

there you go chevy in front again. like i said earlier, i spent all day pulling out that bronco.

[BCConviber]

Old I'll give you props where they're due.. That's quick time to run all stock. I can tell you all what I've got, but I can't tell you what it'll run, so I will hold back on talking smack about my Chevy.... Until it's done, and then it's ON! 

[jbbj220]

High 12 on stock tire and 100,000 mile eng...  Dude I was born at night...  but, not last night!

I did not say stock tires, I said street tires, I also did not say the engine was stock. But 100,000 yes. This one was bult on Wednesday because it was real strong. And it did have 220,000 on it when I sold it. Will be happy to show you time slip if you like but like they say after your comment it will cost ya. There are many daily driver Mustangs out there that will run high 12's that is why Chevy stopped building the Camoro.

CHILLIN, well put bud, as for jbbj220 mustang he not kidding ive seen the car and when he sold it at 220,000 I still seen the car on the road for a couple more years. I as chuck work at ford and know its all nuts and bolts in the end, and they all have there problems or there wouldnt be service departments so lets RIDE!

Thanks. I'm sure with your setup and 600hp in a sub 2500lb truck it will only take 3 numbers to write you ET on a piece of paper.  What tracks will you be taking it to? Good luck with it.  -Mark

Braggin rights, Johnny Gults mustang ran something like 6.30's and well over 200mph Gentlemen that is 1/4 mile times. and he drives it on the street as well, you'll see him in Orlando at the World Street Finals where only street cars show up. If you are not running 8 seconds you will need to leave it at home or on the trailer. Very Good racing. it will be coming up in October again this year, anyone up for a group ride to Orlando Raceway?

He's awesome. I got him on film on the first ever Pro 5.0 racer to hit 200 mph. This was about 4 yrs ago at FFW in Brandenton.  I think that class is almost getting too fast. 2000hp on a small black. Unreal.  -Mark

[BCConviber]

Hell, I'll road trip with you Ford guys to Orlando..  And Old School, as for tracks, Moroso is home sweet home... Although I haven't made a pass down the track in the S-10 yet, that was were I last ran my old race car in 1991.

500 HP from a 7.0 L and yet the Mustang will have the same HP with a 5.4 L

Imagine the HP Ford could get with a 7.0 L

[Gamer]

Main reason I went with Ford is because the Chevy's are a couple thousand dollars more for the same models.  Trucks, Suv's everything.  Why is that?  Plus the Chevy interiors are ugly as hell.  When are they going to get away from all the small seperate indicators in the dash?  I've owned a Ranger and now F150 Super Crew and have had no problems with either vehicle.

Exactly. This is my 2000 GT which was my daily driver for 4.5 years. I raced it on slicks but drove it to and from races, changed tires then raced. Stock motor, aftermarket cams and all the basic bolt ons (no power adders, nitrous, blower, turbo, etc...), weight reduction (3150lbs race weight) and a great suspension. Car went a best of 11.97@113 before I stopped driving it every day. Oh and it had 112K miles on it when it went the best time.

Yea but can anyone really afford one. Not unless they are independently wealthy. Corvettes and mustangs are at least in reach.
