A few weeks ago on 95 was travelling at night, and found myself behind a Dodge Ram pickup. It was one of those ones with the 'Dayona' spoiler on the back. I recall thinking "boy how stupid is that, a giant 4x4 with a deck spoiler", etc.
At any rate I end up in a typical CF of cars with open road ahead, so I wick it up to space myself between the mess and the next one a mile up the road. I rode out 5th gear hard and shift into 6th, only to see these giant headlights bearing down on me. As the truck comes tearing by I hear this giant 'WOOSH' as if it had either a turbo or a centrifigual blower on it. When I say the sound was like a jet it was, I was going fast with ear plugs and the thing was just nuts. He ends up pulling up next to me, and not sure what kind of person we are dealing with i.e. road rage, doesn't know how to drive, etc. I simply give him the thumbs up hoping that he leaves me be.
Now the SV is not exactly a rocket but the idea that a giant 4x4 could pull on me that hard, i.e. like a 1000, was amazing. The other uncomfortable thing was the idea that this guy could have been a crazy and literally chased me down. A weird experience!
