Almost the same setup you wont win. There trucks make more horsepower stock and have less hp loss through drivetrain. Maybe with all bolts ons and programmer.

One of my best friends has a stock '08 5.7L Quadcab. He's left me to catch up quite a few times. I wouldn't waste the fuel just to tell others that I got beat by a Hemi when it's almost a given. Just my $.02

haha, yea 8 out of 10 hemi owners (regardless of what its in) brag about it.. its hilarious because they are not all that special. Literally theres way more aftermarket for a Silverado and an F150 for better gains for crushing a Ram.

-If you have a 4.2L Ram I feel for you.

Why does someone brag when its a quad cab ram with 20s? Is it 4x4 b/c that makes it even worse to brag on.. just so big.

Id say Hey buddy my truck made for pulling towing truck type stuff.. you think your Rams so great and quick then maybe it will smoke my trans? Then bring out the trans and dust his **** and brag on that.. and also brag that your truck looks better and tows better to while your at it.


WS6 FTW.. I love WS6 my dream car.. hell I woulda pulled that out long ago and dusted him to shut his mouth.

If your Gryphon is canned and not custom tuned, dont trash back. If so, you may have a chance. These Fords aren't the greatest racers, but the torque they pack is incredible, even if its lower than the Ram's, you will have him by the start, but if your not on stock wheels and a 93 performance tune, you'll get whooped.

I cant even stand to be around some dodge owners haha i have alittle saying "not everyone that drives a Dodge truck is an a-hole, but most a-holes drive Dodge trucks" i think theres some sort of natural connection between Dodge trucks and people with ego disorders but thats just my take on it

They can get up and go....

Chevrolet still have the most potential for speed though.

Too bad they're build for speed and not towing and hauling. Glorified El Camino's.
