    2,300 hp will still be at a slow crawl of 65mph in mega spec.

    Yah, that’s quite fast..

    “During the runs, The Iron Knight hurtled from 0-to-60 in about 4.6 seconds and averaged 105 mph. It topped out at 171.5 mph.”

    Putting it into perspective with a fast high end car I owned.

    SLK 350 roadster..0-62 in 5.3 seconds (62 is the German way, lol) Top speed limited to 155 mph..rumored to be closer to 200 unlimited.

    That's wrong, it's not the fastest truck.
    The fastest truck is a black man driving a white mans pulp wood truck . If you're from the south east you know.
    I didn't mean this in a racist way ,just a joke.

    haha I looked at a Deepway E truck, 0-100 in 6.9 seconds which is marginally slower than my BMW e93 330d. Might sound cool but when you have 45T getting to 100 in 30 seconds, everyone forgets about stopping it. Or if you drive it like a car, and my 2013 DAF has headed that way, you are on the gas on the brakes, on the gas on the brakes. My feeling is trucks are slow for good reason.
