The Titan out performs the F-150 in the real world case closed, nothing you can say will change that till ford learns how to build a truck.

Where the hell did I quote what Ford says on paper? Only sources I've used are Ford's and Nissan's advertised ratings and I QUOTED Popular Hot Rodding. Have I disputed that a Titan is quicker than a F-150? No. How about you
not put words in other peoples' mouths. Ford knows how to build a truck they just haven't suited it with engough engine. That will very soon change though and you'll see what a large bore, over-square Modular can do. As for power to the ground issue, the damn trucks are turning the most over-built rear axle available in a 1/2-ton truck. If Ford had put 8.8's behind the 5.4's then it would be a different story (probably very similar to the Titan's story at that). I personally don't mind as I like the fact my stock rear end can take the abuse of launching a 5,000+ lb truck making 476 lb-ft of torque at the wheels on drag radials...
