Correct.
More torque and power then pure speed. Ability to pull and go over any terrain. It's fast, but not that fast, as it's designed more for power and ability to get thru rough terrain more then just 0-60 type speed.

25th Stingers were never on the store shelves.
They were online only. They may make it out to the Ross, Marshalls and TJ Maxx of the worlds but I doubt it. But then if the Joe and Cobra 7-packs made it out, anything is possible.

The last thing you would want is to be driving through tight terrain, accelerate and have the turbo kick in. That would be unused and more importantly unmanageable power. The driver would have to constantly be aware of the RPMs to avoid boost in driving areas where you didnt want it. |

That could be true, I'm sure it's gearing is ready to tow..but then what the hell is the point of twin turbos?

$50 is a rip off.
The true reason for the filecard info on the Stinger is that the writer thought it would sound cool and tough and didn't bother to do the full research to make sure it's actually fully functional and the right choices for the intended use of the vehicle.
