Default Test drove 2500

Test drove a Dodge Ram 2500 quad cab w/5.7.........seriously under-powered vehicle, ride is very stiff compared to the 1500 but I was saddened when I put it to the floor and nothing really impressive happened, even from a stand still I couldnt break the tires loose. All in all though the ride is quite amazing, and possibly some mods could do this truck some good. My only real stopping point was the 4000.00 they offered me for my truck. IMO

CTD = sh*t ars grin all the way... the feel of a turbo spooling up unleashing 800 ft lbs of torque (on a mild ugraded motor) gives you the Oh Sh*t feeling... "damn, I hope I just didnt break anything" kinda feeling. open up the intake and exhaust and your at the 400+ hp level pretty quick.

I have found the ulitmate toy... i just got back from a 1000 mile trip and averaged 16.6 mpg round trip... 17.3 down and 16.0 back (had some fun)... oh yeah... giggity giggity gooo
