Gotta love the LS power
I've taken the truck out a couple of times since I've gotten it running good. I've even managed to scare the poo out of myself (not literally) once, just "to see" what it'll do. So today I got my first chance to do what I got the truck for. That is pick up something large. A mattress and box spring. And!! the little woman was coming with me. So, being at my best behavior, I easily drove the truck to where we had to go. The beast idled softly without shake, it cruised at a nice easy speed. Very Harvey Milktoast'ish. After loading the bed, my wife said "this doesn't seem to have much power. It just sort of loafs along." Well, the inner me just about popped a gut, but I kept a straight face and said okay. Knowing this is a Jeckel and Hyde type of machine, I just eased out of the parking lot onto the main drag. Once there, I slowly but assertively applied the throttle planting her into the seat back (smiling devilishly, of course) watching her face quickly turn ashen. Oh what fun it is, heeheehee
Later...
