The fucking Dodge Ram SRT-10.

Damn its gona cost like 50,000 bucks......so i'll have to stick with the Lightning when i turn 16 unless for some damn reason the price drops....or maybe I'll get a SRT-4 (Neon).



I saw those trucks at Daytona500 in front of the track, they had Vipers and SRT-4's also circling around a small track fishtailing and shit. I almost got in one cause it was a free ride (around the lil track almost hitting these foam barriers), but the race was gona start soon and you cant miss the first lap, its disloyal to miss it.


And while I'm at it, lets see your cars, if ya dont got one, show one that you would reasonably get (cause we all want the big pricy ones).

Yea the SRT is assrape money wise. If you wnat affordable power the lightning is your whip at only 32,500 or so. This is just a cheesy attempt to take the worlds fastest truck title by tossing a viper engine in a pickup.

The next lightning is supposed to be 600hp however, hoping they dont go down that stupid road and end up making it expensive.

Besides, you can aftermarket a Lightning. People actually do that and race them. $50,000 is a bit too much to aftermarket.

Get a used lightning for 24 grand. :brow:


But yeah, the Ram does have the Viper engine. Really, someone could just buy a Viper without an engine and you could buy a Ram SRT for 30 grand (if the price was low like the lightning). Save ya 50 thousand right there.


I wana see them both street race, it be sweet.

Ford is killing the lightning performance-wise by keeping everything in it the same. As soon as they see they have to upgrade to keep up with everything else, that nice low price will be history. Dodge is taking over the fast pickup end of trucks. The lightning never had any competition before, so there was no need to keep adding things to it to make it any much better.

Meh, my dream car is a Prius: not because it handles great or is huge, but because I wouldn't feel like an asshat when I drove it :rolleyes: .

Forgot to mention, thats the 2003 model anyway. They say the 2005 will level the lightning. I read that in motortrend somewhere while I was waiting in line for a haircut :rofl:

That's not HIS car, I found this picture on the web, but it's the same thing except it has those 2 racing stripe things going down the middle. I got to ride it in, it owned. They have no fucking shocks at all.
