Pick-up is NOT for speed-demons.
They're designed primarily as a workhorse to carry goods & services & used mainly at construction sites, rough terrain, & unforgiving environment. You can carry people inside, but with leaf spring configuration, they are not as comfortable as normal sedan.
That's why pick-ups've good low-end tork; which is essential to enable them to crawl, & to carry@moving around with heavy goods at low speeds.
but i have seen few times pickup truck with very high speed at the highway. occupying the right lane. at least they drove 150kmh

yup, encounter a few doing at least 140 to 160. with S and T tyre speed rating.

Then use V rating, just change 1 set @730/pc (Toyo Proxies STII) makan cepat 38-40k kms habis 1 set!

Tested with a Hilux 3.0 on the way towards Melaka, tailing me at 180kmh but I rather to let him go instead of proving how powerful Rexton is. Dangerous to maintain at that speed for long.

what speed are you talking about ?
Of course with a ladder frame it wont be as comfortable as unibody design.

Yes, pick-up can speed-up to +/- 160 kmH, but they're too dangerous due to high center of gravity.
Chances are high that they might roll-over.
If you wanna drive fast, get a sedan. (VW Golf GTi shall be good IMHO)

big tyres more drag, not stable and aquaplan faster!!!
- not speed faster, cos the truck's back is too light
Anyway pickup with high body are not good at high speed, at 120-140kph are consider fast, and anything faster is not safe to drive.
