Hmmm.. I looked at a SRT/10 today in Greenville, Mississippi. Sticker price was $47,017.90 (this was after the $507.95 paint sealant option & the $89.95 accent stripe option tacked on by the dealership)

Looked at a Lightning a little while back In Shreveport... $32,xxx.xx sticker price.


Do they really mark up the Dodges & mark down the Fords in your area that much?

 

So tell me exactly who the underdog is when comparing a modified Lightning to a stock SRT/10?


I think the underdog would be the Dodge, right?

 

LMAO while coffee is shooting out my nose

HankFan
Now thats what Iam talking about.
Iam sure the turd would have given ya a better run after it's broken in, or maybe from a 148mph roll.............LOL

 

Way to represent HANKFAN
You get a lap dance, from my little friend

 

Modified Lightning or not, the SRT still has 500 horse power right? Why is it that the L can get the job done with only 380?

 

I think this thread has to do with one truck beating another truck. In one race. Not which truck is faster stock. Its a great feeling when my truck beats a vette or even a 'stang. Whether or not my truck is modded or not, I won. So, I think this thread is only about one race, not lightnings vs SRT-10's in general. Of course it wasn't 'fair' because the lightning was modded. Its just like if you sleep at the light and I beat you with a slower time. You lost. I won. The race is over. I'm happy, your not, in fact you have the excuse you got off late, or missed a gear, whatever. You lost. I'm happy, you're pissed. So i'm sure HANKFAN had fun winning, especially since it was our direct competition.

 

I would take the POS back too ... but whats he going to tell the dodge dealership?

"I was just driving home, and had a race with a Ford Lightning..." ...Im thinking the option to return the truck goes out the window. He would have to make up some other excuse..... thing is, I bet he would have hung in there better if he had some experience driving it.

 

moded lightning sure, but I dont think he had 500 hp with the mods he had mentioned. so sounds like a fair race to me ! I know Im brand loyle but a race is a race and the dodge boy asked for it.

i joined this site to read about what everybody got from UPS that day.

i also joined this site to read about everybody installing a FTVB and what a difference it made, daily.

i also joined this site to read about grudge matches between members brought up in every thread.

 

but honestly I'm jealous. I have not even seen an srt-10 (new viper or truck) in my area, there are a few 1gt generation vipers, but nothing newer than that.

I saw a prototype srt-10 truck months and months ago, but I was in the Grand Cherokee.

 

Well. nice kill. The way I see it, I'd rather spend 40k-45k on a L w/mods than 55k-65k on a SRT that would keep up with the L for 10K or so more. That's just me. Good run, I'm still waiting to see one around. My Kenne Bell is getting put on right now as I type, so I really can't wait for an SRT now.

 

Nice kill Hankfan, Question though where can you buy an SRT-10 on Mother's Day, let alone take one back? I thought dealers were closed on Sunday.

 

hmmm.. lol

 

BLK02, I come thru there about every weekend.......Maybe just maybe

 

Red01- The dealership he purchased the SRT-10 from is so big that they are open on Sunday's. It's like 6 dealerships in a row that are owned by the same man. They are huge.
