1997 SSEi downed

2000 Ford F150 Harley Edition (SC V8 ) downed when that crappy Ford tranny shifted from 2-3 otherwise he had a 1/2 length.

Salute all you want.

I do believe the TL-* has a one-up on you

60mph in 6.2, and the above mentioned 14.8 by Car and Driver. It'* got 232lb-ft from 3500 to 5500, so it'* no VTEC torqueless wonder (that'* DOHC VTEC as opposed to this SOHC VTEC).

A normal TL should be easily downed
