I swear GM fired all the engineers that lived by the rule of KISS and the people that actually knew automobiles, and hired brainless idiots instead. Look at some of the crap they are putting out now. Its like they come so close to greatness, and then they ask a 2yr old for its opinion on something that is crucial to the car or truck.

I agree. But the thing is GM is out to make a shit load of money. And they do. The are one of a small group of car companies that actually return a profit. I dont think Dodge has made money in like 10 years. Diamler is carrying their ass along but I dont think it will last. You cant make money by spending millions on R&D for a truck that only a few thousand people will buy. To make a special high performance vehicle it costs way too much. But if they do like you say and keep it simple, like a Big Block 1500 series, they can do just that.

Really a syty is still as much of a monster as a srt 10 because it has awd and you can turn up the boost. Try to get great traction with a srt 10 at the strip and make sure you manually hit all gears when you shift. Also anyone wanting a syty back in the day didnt have to fork over nearly the cost an srt 10 owner will. On a side note Chrysler really has things going on with that beautiful 300c.

The 90 v6 always has been a great workhorse because of the big bore. Just imagine if the 60 v6 had a 4" bore engine design.

Yea I agree I really like the new 300. Finally a RWD car that looks good and goes fast for a good price.

It would be really sweet if all the W bodies were RWD

kinda jumping in the fray here....but it just seems with all this truck talk that somone should atleast mention the F150 Lightnings....not only fast as hell....but they have been going on through about 10 years now....not just a few years like the other trucks.

the syclone was considered the fastest production truck until recently now the srt-10 is the fastest production truck and that is why the lighting was not mentioned, but I could be wrong.

dude the dodge has a 505ci engine. that thing will rock. I love GM as much as the next guy but give me a 500 hp anything.....shieet that mofo gonna move

if you want the power that truck had...buy a viper.

The viper engine powered truck also has a 6 speed viper RACE tranny thats rated at 0 towing capacity

the 1500 srt-10 is worthless towing the only up side is its 30k cheaper than the viper and you can fit more cargo in the bed.
