You have a 79 4X4 luv right? You drive it daily right? I am sure you have a watch, right? Why ask us, you have all the stuff in front of you to answer your own question, right?

I think it's about the same as my old VW was. Just under 15 minutes. :lol: I even had a sticker that said that.

I think your best 0-60 time would be to get into 4 lo, dump the clutch from a dead stop, shift into second quickley, and ride it out till you hit the 60 MPH mark.

Luverv8, dude i don't think that will work with a 4x4, not 60, you'd blow your tranny faster than Rick James can say "I'm Rick f***ing James b*tch" you mgiht be able to make it in 3rd, but i don't know, I'd try it out for every one but my truck is still down :roll:

The Luv is the perfect Sleeper for our friends with the V8's. I'd like to have one to see the face of the drivers of the Mustangs or Cameros as you pass them. :lol:
