A 5.7 hemi is good and very fast but it's more like a toy. My opinion. I love the 5.9 magnum what's nice is when u hook a big trailer to the 5.9 magnum it doesn't even bother it at all. I had the same trailer hooked to my buddy's 5.7 hemi and it was screaming. It took all it had to drag it up over the mountain. This is only from personal experience

Orrrr, you could be a die hard dodge fan and love every body style and engine from a '78 to a '15? The guy wants what he wants, and no one can tell him different. Dont get me wrong, I love the second gens, but i really want a 3rd gen. Will I ever get rid of my '98? Probably not. But dont rag on him cuz of wanting something different. In my family, we have owned every generation except for the fourth gen. So widen your perspectives people. Y'all are pathetic

Yes, we are. We like the second gen body style, and find trying to graft third gen body panels onto one somewhat..... strange... If you want third gen looks, might just as well have third gen motor and trans too. I know I would LOVE to have a Hemi..... I drove a friends 2011 2500 with the hemi to Indianapolis and back, (about 500 miles round trip) and LOVED it. Smooth, comfy, and an adequate amount of power. (as compared to my old 96.)

Folks like what they like, it doesn't make them any less than anyone else.
