you dont buy a viper motor for practicality......... i dont care what its in.

 

didnt the silverado SS come with a weak V6?

 

Haha not quite...the SS had the 6.0L beast.

 

you got that right, theres a guy i used to go to school with that lives down the street who has an s-10. sometimes i see him go by with a 4 wheeler in the bed and its about an inch from dragging the ground.... pathetic. And the only truck chevy made that was worth anything was the 454 SS, just a flat out torque monster... still nothing compared to an R/T though.

 

Ya I agree about the colorado and ranger. I have a 00 ford ranger V6 3.0L and the thing gets MPG of a big V6 but has the power of a 4-banger. The other problem with the ranger is the cam syncro gear wears off and stops turning the oil pump therefore blows the motor and ford has not to date done anything about them. I seen one go out a 40k miles!

A friend mine had a colorado the thing had all kind if timing and electronic issues. If I had to get another truck id get a old yota truck.

 

Thats why I bought a Dakota, the S10 and ranger are like cars with a bed, useless. The new trucks now in days are monsters and the dakota is perfect. My dad has a 08 f-150 and while its a really nice truck. The bed comes to my chin and im 5-10. How on earth is that helpful.

The Silverado SS was a pretty sweet ride and i liked the Silverados of 99-02 i believe the newer the uglier they get.

 

Yea the chevy colorado ss would beat a r/t dakota....
I prefer Chevys to dodge..... I just prefer the dakota over the s10 or ranger or any jap scrap mid size pickups...

 

im pretty sure ide give them a run for there money

 

The 99-02 looks like a truck for pansies. The slanted headlights of the 03-07 looked a heck of a lot better

 

Well i guess its a matter or opinion because i thought the slanted ones look like $hit. The ones right before looked real nice. Silverados have gone down hill since then.
