I was at a friends house the other day and we had jet ski's in his pond. When we loaded them in the trailor my friends 1999 ford f-150 could not pull the jet ski's out of the water in 4 wheel drive.... hmmm, probably because of a lack of horse power. My 2002 dodge 1500 pulled the jet ski's out with ease.... I think it could have done it in 2 wheel drive. the f-150's wheels didn't even have enough power to spin after it dug a rut in the sand. Not to bash on ford or anything because i like the way they look it's just that i don't think they have as much pulling power as a dodge or a chevy truck.[

My Regal has a 3.4 pulley on the Supercharger, MSP cold air intake, and a custom 2 1/2 inch exhaust system along with a 160 thermostat. I've just installed a DHP PCM but the weather has been too hot to race for me. I stick to riding my horses early in the morning or late in the evening but no drag racing until fall. Oh and Dodge won the DHRA diesel drag races this past weekend. The quickest truck in street diesel was a 12.21 in the 1/4. That would have been in the 11s at a normal track with regular altitude. Not bad for a heavy truck on number 2 diesel.

i have been looking at trucks for a while and when i drove the new ram 5.7, it was much nicer than any of the ford's or chevys i've driven. plus i mean it's a Hemi, what more could you ask for? well besides a v10 viper powered dodge ram.
