yea looks like it rides good, and has a lot of storage but its a weak dodge and has cheep parts, the 08 ram my brother has as a rental car looks really nice until you get up close. the 20 inch rims are plastic, the inside is like plastic and the seats are hard as wood. but the ride was smooth. the truck has no guts its slow as heck

Hmmm...I like it! No, I am not a trader, nor will I buy one--so don't even try saying that! Dodge has always been my #2 truck and this new body style looks great, IMHO. Effin Hemi now makes 380 hp and 404 torque...damnit. That RCSB Sport model with 4.10 gears might be our new truck to play with! I am really interested to see how that new 5-link coil rear suspension will do. Only time will tell...

Yeah they actually did their homework and FINALLY added VVT (variable valve timing) and upped the displacement and dropped that crappy MDS stuff which in turn gave it an addt's 40HP and better throttle response which should put it close to 300 RWHP on the dyno (380 is crank HP) so drivetrain loss is getting better but it does look a little like the ford. I think the boys at Dodge took a clue from Nissan and how the Titan was built to get the most out of the engine but Toyota still has the advantage on crank HP on the 5.7 engine do to their larger LSA cam (which is snapping on many a Tundra-HAHA) and better flowing heads/exhaust. LET THE TRUCK WARS CONTINUE.
SO WHATS NEXT FOR CHEVY, JEEP ANNOUNCED THE NEXT SRT WILL BE A 6.4 I SMELL TRADE IN NEXT YEAR

I dont think it will cost a fortune to get 310hp. stock 4.8 in the 08 is 295hp. with a tune youll easily have that. now 310whp is different. but still we have all seen the 100 horsepower on a budget. And 310whp on a 4600 lb Chevy is a lot different than 310whp on a 6000lb dodge. The r/t does 0-60 in 7 seconds. thats only about .2-.6 faster than my 4.8. I still dont like dodge. But I did like the side tool boxes. perfect for placing a bottle of spray. The rear end might be what takes the cake though. ford did that thing with the shocks outside the springs, but who wants to run a road corse backwards?

discusting i hate it looks like a cross between a ford and a tundra... UGLY...
09 CREWCAB LTZ SILVERADO, 6.2, SIX SPEED, CAI,
0-60 is 6.1 not 7, I would not buy it I dont like how it looks. What Dodge SHOULD do is bring back the SRT10 Body and put the 6.1 Hemi in it and make it AWD now that would be a badass truck
