I did the same thing when I had my 6.0L powerstroke, went to pass a suburban while it was raining out and almost sent the truck in the ditch. Once the turbo spooled it was a ride of a lifetime..........had me some fudge in my shorts after that one

Well we were riding in a buddies 01 with injectors box ect. it had a dual disk clutch and i wanted to ride in it to have a feel of it. he got on it out of the drive way. we go around a turn get sideways. slide down an enbankment. we hit a tree and it flips the truck. I was in the back. my buddie in the front went out the window on the first flip. it went over twice. we were all fine but the truck was totaled. it was crushed and it ripped off both passenger side rims. It uprooted a tree and broke off a fire hydrant. Luckily he had full coverage insurance. Hes got a dually now (harder to tip over with training wheels )

I'm coming to realize very quickly that you've got to be incredibly careful with these trucks. With light rear ends and crazy torque, these things can get away from you very fast.
