BTW: My truck weighs 5700lbs with a 1/4 tank of gas and me in it.

Let's just say I wouldn't hang my hat on a Gtech time. Just don't go racing a Dodge or Nissan for pink slips based on your results!

If you have a link to a test showing the Gtech to be over 1 sec off, please post the link. Until then, I'll trust the testing I've read and the guys that have used one at the track.
BTW, I know how I stack up against the Hemis and Titans. I've raced them.

Nice so... how did you stack up?

Both of those are assuming they aren't modded much. The Titans don't have any tuning available to help them out, and from what I've heard, the Hemi tuners don't do much for them either. Just keep in mind, there's always someone faster out there.
