weren't u lookin for a 2500?? you're going the wrong way. a titan is 2000 lbs lighter??? I call MAJOR bull, not a chance.
and that motor is likely not exactly a truck motor. and if the titan is even 1000 lighter, where is that comin from? the frame? driveline? carbon fiber hood?

i guess the 5.7 hemi is a truck motor since it has .1 more right ????
and like i said the block is aluminum (lighter) unlike the cast of a ram (heaver)
and ist mostly aluminum threwout except the frame

well RH again like I said the last time with the 2500. how often do you race your truck???? how often do you go cruising on sat night trying to race people at traffic lights??? I just dont see that being the issue here, you were wanting a truck that hauled more road more like a truck......the 2500?? You were wanting to get away from ifs werent you?? well the way I see it, it is your truck and your decision, I just hope you pick the one that you will be happy with six months from now!!

ok test drove this also and i think i like it!!!!! we will see still waiting on the CTD to get on the lot. but this titan had ballz 9400 pounds towing capibality and 317 HP in a all aluminum block and the trans is awesome only loose 12% to the ground over the 28% of dodge. read allot about this truck today it is 2k pounds lighter than a QC hemi and from what i read on car and driver it is faster than the hemi ram , ford f 150 and cheby 1500. it felt like a sports car but halled a$$ like a truck . it has gibson exhaust and a cai. with only 13k miles and a 08 ...i was prety impressed hears some pics let the flamming began LMAO.....but havent bought anything yet still wanting to drive the CTD before i make a decesion...but this titan 4x4 is in the lead so far.
Curb Weights (lbs)
4x2 Standard Bed 4,987 5,023 N/A 5,206
4x4 Standard Bed 5,231 5,267 5,297 5,489
4x2 Long Bed 5,275 5,294 N/A 5,490
4x4 Long Bed]
So if that titan in the pics is a 4x4 then it's pretty close in weight to a quad cab....200-300 lbs less.
