Saleen F150 feels underpowered

So i have a used 2020 F150 Saleen yellow label, came with an edelbrock supercharger on it, and according to saleens specs online, with the supercharged 5.0 and the tune it has, it pushes 720 hp.

I can’t find a lot of info on this truck online since it does seem to be somewhat rare or maybe just unpopular, so as far as my own knowledge and efforts to search i haven’t had much luck

I don’t personally have a lot of knowledge when it comes to making power, but i thought a supercharger is virtually supposed to have very ittle lag, and i notice that my truck feels really underpowered for what Saleen claims it’s capable of. It’s slow off the jump and just isn’t as fast as i expected it to be. Probably a full 3 seconds after putting the pedal to the floor before i feel any sort of power

So somebody please educate me, if this was your truck, what would your next step be? Am i asking the wrong questions? Would you take it to a performance shop? Or am i just being crazy and it’s probably fine? i just thought 720hp would be the kind of speed that would throw me back in my seat, but it doesn’t really do that.

Indentify this flatbed trailer truck?

FYI ... a local police department (Mashpee, MA on Cape Cod) published this photo, seeking the owner of the flatbed truck depicted (not the pickup it is transporting).

It seems apparent that this might only be achievable if someone familiar with the company were to see the image, but I thought one thing that other people might be able to achieve would be to identify the make/model of the truck. I felt sure this sub would be a great place to find such a practiced eye.

Caveat: I have no idea why the Mashpee police want to find the owner. You'd have to be comfortable with providing your best information with that aspect obscured. I am simply curious and trying to stay indoors away from the hot summer day.

What is the appeal of squatted trucks?

Like why do people like them? You can't tow with them, you can't see very well while driving, and modding them to be like that costs a LOT of money. It's just about as useful as a Ferrari in the middle of a city.

Opinion on West Coast Mirrors?

I found these west coast style (I think) mirrors on an older c3500 Cheyenne at my local junkyard for $30. I know id have to drill more holes to make Chevy mirrors fit on my f350 dually, and I wanted to see how it sounded as an idea. The only thing I worry about is them sticking out too far and looking silly. What do yall think?

Too good to be true?

$1200 for all 4 vossen hfx-1 and 35” tires seems very cheap?

Why did you get your first pickup truck?

This is the first one that I bought new. Working on our family’s nursery at the time. All we had for currently running vehicles were a few cars, couple medium duties and class 8 trucks. Made that work for a while, but then I went and ordered this. Got it exactly how I wanted it, 6.0, NV4500, shortbed, 4x4. It was something a lot smaller. I enjoyed that, no longer having to drive around a big topkick.

Treated me well ever since.

Should I go back to ford ?

I had a f150 2013 for 9 years only small issues. Purchased a gmc sierra 2021 elevation. Had 4 check engine lights with only 74k miles on it. O2 sensor, nox sensor, dpf, another o2 sensor. 02 sensor causes a crank no start. Thinking about an f250 2021 lariat. Are they reliable ?

Two Ford trucks at a light

I got behind these two yesterday and thought it was interesting how different they are. The Ford on the right is probably 40 years old and a Ranger (I think), but that F-150 on the left is not one of the larger ones you often see around here.
