Yes, the LBZ does have 365 hp and at 70 mph the rpm's are at 1800. So for I have put 265 miles on it and have had a blast! On the freeway I really have to watch my speed, in no time I am going over 80 mph and it doesn't feel like. The truck runs and rides so smooth, even the family has been impressed. I tried the 4x4 out and got stuck , I was doing great until in drove into an area holding water. But the boys loved it and thought it was great. Someone saw me and called a wrecker truck to pull me out. He stated that I needed better tires, I agree the standard on/off road tire from the deal just don't cut it. But it was still a blast!!! Today I am having a sprayed in bedliner put in by Line-X, then more test driving.
