My best friends dakota. Highly modified, swapped out to a V8…I can’t even list everything. The outside is busted but its _fast_

If this truck was in Grand Theft Auto I might beat up a hooker to drive it around and eventually do a cool flip off of a cliff.

Maybe.

LMAO

I think he ran a 13.9 in the 1/4th. He’s a student at Ohio Tech. The primer is faded, and someone backed into his truck with a trailer hitch. Why he hasnt fixed it…I do not know.

like i said in the SHO thread, you really think high 13’s is fast? truck looks like a pile in my opinion. and seriously, if its the engine that is so great in this truck, wheres the engine bay shots? thats apparently the only thing important on this truck.

Not to continue the thread of hate, but the truck is kind of sad. Never been a fan of the tailpipes in the bumper like that either.

There’s no way that truck can touch 13’s being all motor, lol. Surprised no one called that out yet.

Did I mention it looks like shit?

What do you expect? You posted pictures of a primered busted truck with R/T written by hand on the side with no engine bay shots and claimed it runs 13’s…

Who said all motor? Not trying to start shit or anything - and I havn’t seen the timeslip - thats what he told me and idk why he would lie? I mean I drive an escort, anything above 17 seconds generally impresses me 😛

I will text him to get a list of complete mods.

Its not my truck - I’m simply poisting up the pics of it…but we are both college students and all work was done by us, in a shitty old barn - for the most part. I know now that he’s @ Ohio tech he’s had the chance to tune on the dyno, rebuild the motor, ect.

Find better cars to take pics of. Or, find some broads. Either would be better than a shitty dakota, and an escort.
