how about the 08 4.7, they have a big power increase over previous models, all the way up to over 300 hp with much better fuel economy. would a reg cab manual 4.7 suit your needs?
how is 1-2 that much better mpgs? just get the hemi you will regret if if you dont...
ahhh hemi's are over rated...i got a 4.7 and i pull do everything a hemi can pull
What exactly have you pulled?
If the 4.7 is capable of doing everything a 5.7 can do, then why have the 5.7?
Dont get me wrong, Ive worked the **** out of 4.7, to the point that I was sweating in the process, literally. But its not meant for it.
Dont just assume that since youve done something, its the written way. The HEMI has proved time and time again to be a hell'eva workhorse beyond the 4.7.
PS... food for thought....
If the 4.7 is so great, why isnt it an option in the heavy duty trucks?
Yea you definitely want one of the 09's. Dodge claims the aerodynamics are improved and more power, plus you can get them for the price of a used truck with low miles on it.
