I was looking at Dodge trucks the other day… almost all those packages look beat. The Daytona, Super Bee etc. suck. The Hemi Express was “okay” at best. I do however like the regular cab short bed w/ the Sport Apperance Group (just body colored everything, no wings/stickers/wheat).
I’m looking at one w/ the Hemi, SLT package, tow package, twankies etc. for $21k (about 11k off from the employee discount and model year close-out rebates). IBTHATTHINGGOTAHEMI

HAHAHA
this ram is useless without diesel.
I’d like a dizzy but you’re lookin’ at $10k more (have to move up to a 3/4 or 1 ton, then the Cummins option is bank). The Hemi will tow my car on an open trailer no problem. W/ the cylinder deactivation and all it gets Diesel like mileage, at least when not towing. And even primium is cheaper than Diesel out here. Plus no RCSB Dizzy. I like the RCSB the best.

never in a million years will the “hemi” get diesel like mileage. The sticker may say so, but in the real world, you’re looking at 10-14mpg MAX for a hemi.
a diesel will last longer, get much better mileage, and add tons to resale. If you can swing the extra $$$ up front, a diesel is the only way to go
i just want a truck i can run on soybean oil.
After racing my buddy’s 05 STI one night in June we stopped to bullshit in a parking lot…one of those trucks drove by revving like mad and giving us the evil eye. At the time it really pissed me off.
good story
:spank: :bash: :ugh:
the wing is what makes it gay, everything else is alright… ive seen better tho.
the new dakota RT’s now, im not sure about those yet
u want that wing on ur neon!
no … it really isn’t
the wheels look cheap as fuck… the ‘daytona’ sticker was totally laughable… the exhaust sounded really bad… the wing just made me go :ugh: and take a picture so i could post it on the internet and talk shit.
Next random story: Saw a Dakota R/T at Raceway Park one night with MTs on the back. He had loud exhaust, and I figured if he’s running ET streets he must be quick. I was looking forward to seeing him run.
When he staged, he did a LONG smoky brake stand burnout. At this point I was expecting a 12 second truck…I watched the dude make a couple of mid-high 15 passes. I was pretty disappointed.
thats gotta be a bad driver… i’ve seen them do low low 15’s and high 14’s with a perfect driver
like ur 17 second poen real/turd
thats gotta be a bad driver… i’ve seen them do low low 15’s and high 14’s with a perfect driver
I think it was an automatic. Did they come as a manual?
how about it’s because it’s a stupid fucking slow ass truck? hummmmmm?
Sorry, I guess the people I spoke to who actually OWN HEMI TRUCKS are wrong. :doh:

The Cummins Turbo Diesel is superior …
no “hemi” will ever be able to touch it
