Johnny Hernandez LOL

@alexgriffin2732 5 лет назад

Yeah you're right. My stock 4.7 can wipe the floor with anything in the lot. At least 500 hp. The duct tape over my rust drops the drag coefficient to zero

@@jrzr1river489 That truck uses a different front bezel and has the sealed beam headlights. The regular dealer ones have the what you normally see that are the plastic lens which look a lot better than these ones. These ones are ugly in all the wrong ways. But these you can change out for anything that uses a 6024 sealed beam light. If they made it like the 3500 then it'd look better and keep it's locost fleetyness lol.
