The Official 2nd Gen RAM Forum OT thread
funny how folks discount vehicles based on how they look, huh, vdub?
there was an old javelin back home with fellers mighty interested in 'racing for pinks'.. only a fool or an out of towner would do it.. that jav was a hunk of crap- looked, sounded, even smelled like a turd.. but great googleemooglee was that thing f a s t .. rumor was the rear end was set stupid low- like in the neighborhood our trucks are set in.. and that AMC 301 was a torque monster.. according to the owner, he could barely top 110, but he got to 110 in about 10 seconds.. I only saw him race maybe three times, and have no means to judge the speed- but I'm sure he was telling at least near the truth.. talk about a sleeper..

Some people should not drive... A, (ehem) Pacific Islander appearing lady, pulled out in front of me on a split-median style road, heading straight towards me. I didn't know their eyes could open so big as when she realized what she did! She then drove off into the median and drove in the grass to the next turnaround.
