Once you get used to a certain level, it loses it's thrill and you have to up the dose. I actually made a hard decision to sell off all my fast stuff and limit myself to 200 hp about 10 years back. That managed to reset my expectations and I now find my recently built 300 hp 3200 lb turbo Ranger (old style obviously) to be a thrilling power/weight ratio again. I find I'm much more responsible with it now that I'm older so I may venture out further into the power level spectrum yet. I'm trying to take it slow this time. But anyways, 600 hp in a 6000 lb vehicle is still perfectly streetable and even mannered. The same amount in a 4000 lb vehicle is starting to hit the limit of streetability. These days, people drive SUVs like sports cars and expect good acceleration as standard, mind boggling how much HP Nav and Escalade have.
