I took a test drive in one (01)a couple a weeks ago and nearly got killed trying to get onto the frw because I under estimated the lack of throttle response.
55 in a world of posted speed limits 65-75 just will not cut it.
But thanks for the info.

Without even knowing it I got my truck up to 80mph without a problem.
As for merging onto a freeway I have never had a problem unless some ass decided to stop at the end of an on ramp only to try to merge on from a standstill. If someone on the freeway decided to speed up so you could not merge then your are going to get that no matter where you are or what you are driving. Throttle response is to be expected but my on ramps are looooooong so merging hasn't been much of an issue.
