bdennis Brendan Dennis Member 750 Member For: 22y 6m 9d Gender: Male Location: Melbourne, Vic Posted 21/07/03 12:17 AM Share Posted 21/07/03 12:17 AM Just could not help myself..I don't know how many of you have actualy pulled anything with your XR6T...I put the 1300kg van on the back of the T over the weekend. (Test drive before the big lap) I had previously towed the same van with the old AUII XR6 VCT and was happy with the performance of it.... Well... This puppy is just a dream. It will happly sit on 100k/h at 2100rpm on the free way siping the fuel at around 16l/100km. (avge)Then if you need / want.. put the foot down and away she goes. (per usual if not loaded with a large mobile brick.)Who needs a Turbo Deisel Landcruser (apart from the obvious 4wd bit) The T has more power, more Torque is lighter and mush nicer to drive.. (flame suit on and ready! B) )Bring on the Terry with the Turbo I say..

ktford FORD FORD FORD Donating Members 9,390 Member For: 22y 1m 7d Gender: Male Location: Victoria Point In Brissy's eastern side Posted 22/07/03 01:15 AM Share Posted 22/07/03 01:15 AM I've only had the fun of towing an 8x5 box trailer for the 1st time on the weekend. Quite ammuzing, cars pulling up beside you at the lights to blow off the car towing the trailer only to be left in a turbo spin when the lights go green. I just don't have the will power to resist beating everyone I come across.Scotty Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/4752-oh-the-power-of-the-turbo/#findComment-37930 Share on other sites More sharing options...
