Basically, it looks like to have a truck that can compete with the other factory sport trucks out there now, we'll still have to build our own, instead of walking into a dealer.

BTW...the new Dodge didn't impress me very much at the auto show, or in person as I see them driving around all the time. I live directly behind a Dodge dealer...

Isn't building them more fun anyway?

I love the SRT-10 Rams. I would drive one in a heartbeat, unless they came out with a LQ9/MN8 reg cab, awd SS. :drool

Any idea on the pricing for that truck? I'm glad they offer the 6.0L in the 1/2-ton 2wd truck, should be a high 14 truck stock.

the reason they call it the Texas truck is because, dodge has the lonestar edition ram, ford had the king rancher. and now gm has the texas truck. it has the same motor and tranny as the ss. but not awd. it should weigh less than 6000lb though. i weighed my ss with me in it and it was 5700lbs
