Fun hand against an ultra maniac, play it for me

Are you saying that you would even cold call this guy with T5o? I thought the correct approach was to attack these guys with showdown cards which T5o is not one of.

Nope, I would 3-bet if I thought it would knock out the blinds behind me. I call with any 2 in the BB when it's just me and him. If you're going to play against this guy, make sure to do it HU. With OP's read (assuming it's reliable), your implied odds are phenominal when you hit a hand. You simply can't give up that edge by worrying about showdown value here.
