It was so long ago, I have no idea........Sounds about right though. The F150 even lower.

I grew up driving little 80-90 hp 4-cylinder shitboxes.......So revving it up to 6K or more was just par for the course. Hopping into a car that petered out a lot sooner than that was a disappointment. Didn't matter if it was blazing fast on paper.
