What is the best truck out there?
Now that I have your attention, instead of replying to the countless compairson threads that never end I will say what I gotta say here.
Svt lightning vs Dodge SRT10
Dodge = faster
Dodge = More expensive
Ford = Cheaper
Ford = More practical
As for upgrading the Dodge.
8.3 V10 with the capability of producing 900+rwhp (STREETABLE)
The dodge has the transmission, (excluding the clutch), rear dana axle, and driveshaft to handle this power load. No questioning this!
(I have seen first hand what these motors can do reliably, I have driven and rode in blown, turbocharged, nitrous injected, methonal injected vipers, these engines are tough..)
As for the svt lightning.
5.4 V8 I have seen 650rwhp maximum...
yes you can get more then 650, but there are major issues, and costs involved...
You can't deny that the doge viper engine is way more capeable with less or no internal mods then the lightning.
As for looks, personally I like the looks of both trucks.
And if you think I am a dodge guy and my knowledge / opinion is biased think again, I am pro ford.
But simply said dodge hit the nail on the head with this truck!:whipped: :whipped: :whipped: :whipped: :whipped: :whipped: :whipped: :whipped:
