120 for an instant in one of these isnt stupid if the tires and suspension are up to it. I wouldnt want to do it in a 1/2 ton though. Too much suspension play for me. Sometimes I'm happy my truck rides like a train.

Stupid is what I used to do when I was 16 . I had a SD 455 Trans Am with 2.73 gears that would , could and did top out at 165 miles an hour according to the mile markers and a passenger with a stopwatch . That was on the nice straight interstates of Ohio and it did it on pretty much a daily basis on my morning trip from home to the trade school I went to 20 miles away. Changing lanes felt like floating. Never wrecked. never got a scratch . Luckier than hell!
