top speed

[toms89]

Completely agree with Gary on the stability! It's just a bit unnerving once there is a massive crosswind that throws you over half a lane... I checked my zero to sixty the other day and got 13.8, anyone with a 4.6 do better?

If its windy or in traffic for that matter hopefully most would exercise some restraint.

4.2 ish for me but with lightly modded 5.4.

Lightly modified my ass! That is one awesome Expedition, mine shoves me against the seat, right until I get to 40, then it's a complete drag even though I'm still not out of first.

I was driving on I 25 in New Mexico on a flat stretch and put my pedal to the floor, didn't top it out because the wind threw me over half a lane (no one was around for miles) and I had a luggage rack on my receiver hitch, a bike on a typical clip on rack, and a large bag up on top and I managed 105. I'll try a top speed run without a load and see what she can do some other time. I have an 04 XLT 4.6 bone stock. I was running on a half and half tank of 89 and 86 octane.

If you're unloading for aerodynamics that's fine, but removing weight from inside the car will not affect top speed in any amount anyone but a scientist can measure...

I had mine to 116 yesterday. Easily could have done more but was afraid one of the light wind guts might get stronger. Still pulled 19.5 mpg out of that tank.

105 several times and governor kicks in. 04

Interstate with a slight down slope, feels like it has a lot left when limiter kicks in.

Had a 14 tahoe rental last week and it stopped at 97

Chevy has always stoped at 97 - 99

Ran smooth and got to 105 last week. . . Too bad traffic slowed me down.
