C240 vs Tacoma

Last night im on the main street that leads to my house. This street is a 2 lane, with 1 lane in each direction. Im driving along and i see this tacoma, probably some idiot who just got it, come storming up behind me then attempts to pass me. I said hell no and pushed the loud pedal all the way down and procedded to gain speeds as quickly as a C240 can. 1st gear since he had the jump he was almost at my door, 2nd gear he gets put back alittle further, then 3rd becomes death for him. In 3rd gear i pulled 3-4 cars on him, and then shut it down since its a 45 and i was going 80, and my neighbor crashed his benz on this street three years ago and i didnt wanna continue the streak. THe tacoma was probably some drunk high school kids trying to show off, thinking im some older person who doesnt know what the loud pedal is. I hope he feels like a the moron he is right now. Cant even beat the slowest benz. Lucky i wasnt driving the E320 or the Z3. Z3 would be worse because he would not only loose but get the bellow from the I6 music bouncing off the walls.

C240 1
New Tacoma 0 Stay down *****.

Slowest Benz? I get to reach 60 in 12 seconds

And I leave a trail of smoke too!

That will teach them. I've had my fair share of those P/U runs, always on the freeway and never at a light lol

Good job....I didn't think there was a vehicle on the road a 240 could beat. You proved me wrong. The 240 could take a school bus or a cement mixer if they miss a gear.
