Arizona's tax money at work
 
4 Attachment(s)
A guy I know drove this by the shop today. He is a mechanic and for some gov't agency he installed some speed parts. It has a supercharger, 16 inch rotors and 4 or 6 piston calipers, that mega front bumper and winch and other little things. It came back to him because they complained of a "flat spot" while accelerating. It turns out the tires spin upon boost and the traction control kicks in! This big hunk of steel will roast the tires at 20 mph!

Could use a bigger bumper IMHO... :unibrow:
How does someone justify spending so much on a gov vehicle? Would get a lot of ppl fired in this country...

Yeah, there was a write up on MOTOR TREND awhile back on a single cab TRD equipped Toyota Tundra that had the supercharger and all the goodies and had 505 horsepower.:wow:
It was pretty bad ass. According to MOTOR TREND, it goes 0-60 in 4.4 seconds!!:thumbsup:
