Re: New truck
The suckin gas, haulin *** sticker doesn't fully relate to a dodge. I owned a 99 4x4 w/ a 318 for a year and a half. I put a 360 in it after 6 months and still wouldn't get out of its own way. It did get a whopping 10-11 mpg. It was a nice truck though and I liked the solid front axle compared to my current yukon's ifs...blehhhh.

Re: New truck
Here is my 04 Hemi quad cab on the stock twinkies...I had an 04 silverado before this..and i will say this the chevy was the smoothest riding truck i was ever in, and drove smaller than it was...however...the dodge is way tougher, has more power, and steers really nice..its a little bit rough on the bumps but the suspension is way more ready for some heavy duty off roading...i paid about 3g's more for the dodge, and the new 5 speed auto tranny is really slick..i've had a ford, chevy, and dodge and the chevy just doesn't have it from the factory..might run forever but it looks like **** compared to the others and even the z71's sit so much lower, and just can't hang..sorry but i've had em all and thats my opinion and i'm stickin to it

Your truck doesn't look like a 4wd, sits low and i didn't think they'd put 20s on a 4x4. But again, dodge went the IFS route with the new truck and I think it was a bad idea. If I had the money, I'd buy a power wagon. Those are badass from what I've read. Basically a Jeep Wrangler Rubicon on serious steroids as far as the similar off road options go. I guess I'll just have to buy a cummins 3500 quad cab dually before those are independent in the front.
you think my truck sits low?????? maybe that picture doesn't do it justice but i literally have to jump to get in it...have you not seen the new dodge's? they are about three inches taller than any other truck out there
