Re: Dodge Ram SRT-10 1/4 Mile times

I just got an srt-10 ram after trading in my lightning...My honest opnion isnt goign to be very popular here but I will share with you what someone who has had both feels...the lightning seems to have been much better engineered, is quicker more agile and in general alot more fun to drive...the ram seems a bit sloppy the wheels are way too big and I can tell the dodge engineers werent paying much attention to the 78 pounds each wheel and tire weighs when they considered this truck will be used and hitting imperfections in the road...u get alot of kick back from these wheels hitting ruts or whatever..its also very big feeling and doesnt give you much confidence when you drive it. The stick shift reminds me of a big diesel tow truck...it just isnt very sporty...it sort of jiggles over bumps and doesnt handle nearly as sporty as its claimed...HOWEVER...I see it has tons of potential and I plan on seeing how far it will go...Im definitely getting much lighter wheels, either turbo or supercharer..I will lower it for sure...and...I plan on making it an automatic...
