ahhh yes.. just think of this quote," So many SRT kills, No SVT kills..." the only thing i honestly like about the trucks are that they come with nice seats and they are a manual transmission..

Regardless of the rivalry, I think it's a good looking truck. Wouldn't buy one, but you have to admire the engineering that went into it.

That would be true if you want to race some stock Lightnings, well, if you could find a stock Lightning. If you want to pump up the SRT10 to beat a modded Lightning, be prepared to spend more than you ever spent on your Lightning .

Oh yeah, and stock up on clutches now.

Still have the clutch problem huh? You must admit that these days Chrysler is thinking outside the box....I could hardly believe that the SRT10 now comes with 4.56 cogs standard

I like it. I kinda want the new Go Mango Daytona Ram (wing removed) to match my Belvedere. But I really don't need another vehicle/can't afford anything right now anyway...

But also, trucks are just getting too big. I'm still thinking a new Frontier if I should get a new truck anytime soon. I need something that I can actually use the bed on, park in my garage, and find a public parking space. I'm not interested in carrying the whole office with me...

food for thought:

The Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT-8 is the second quickest vehicle that dodge produces.
That little 6.1L Hemi propels the GC quicker than that v-10 srt-10 ram.

That grand cherokee will take many lightnings also. awd, 425hp...
I'm waiting for discounts to be offered on them, my current grand cherokee is starting to get up there in miles.
