I won't down the HEMI engine because I know they can run good. I raced my Bro-n-laws stock QC 4WD on the highway and it hung with me(modded RCSB 2WD) pretty damn good although I did pull on it(not like I expected too though).

I like the regency trucks alot, pretty sweet, and kinda in the same class as the bees. I have come to face it with the SRT 10, its a sweet ride, but thats it, just a ride........no towing and nothing but transportation to point A and B, but does it quick. Now if you get the quad cab, its to bulky, heavy, and big and tows 7500 lbs., but its speed has dropped considerably compared to the rcsb. So as far as a sporty factory truck, hands down to the regency, the JGP truck, the bees, the GTXs are sweet as well. The daytonas are nice, just don't like the wing alot, but a nice color. With this line up atleast you can still tow and have a fast truck as well, and usually done under 35 grand at the high side on retail. I use mine to tow my boat, and a trailer I have for quads and the cars. Can't do that in a rcsb srt10 truck. One day I'll have to get a pic of the bee towing a john deere for you guys....LMAO.........color goes well!

I saw a RC stepside JG truck w/5.3 SC'd at a Chevy lot in OKC this weekend RC's aren't for me, have to haul the kids ya know, but if speed is the deciding factor then this truck should fit the bill. Did drive an EC Gibbs truck though, that supercharger sounds awesome! Wonder if JG will SC an LQ9 anytime soon? Hmmm.....

my point is the dodge guy thought i was a joke and so i showed him that i can scoot to. his truck had some kinda dumped exhaust and a rollpan, led tail lights and whatnot.
Sure that truck was great on motor but it couldnt hold me.

New member here!
My brother recently got a RCSB Dodge Ram HEMI w/ 3.90 gears and it had a great bottom end but it seemed to lag a little on top... haven't had a chance to line em' up but i figure with no spray it'd be close on bottom... i've ran several down the interstate and have yet to meet my match there. There is no doubt they are quick for a stock truck but I think they are a little over-hyped (no -disrespect to the Dodge boys).
