Nate - I don't think he meant to double post...

Guys get your panties out a wad! Do you really believe that DMX would spend the amount of money it takes to research and develop a new motor like the 6.1 just to offer it in a limited amount? That makes absolutely no sense...think about it. It will be offered eventually in a toned down version. Why else did they get rid of the V10 in the H.D.s?
I own boxers...

The way you were wording things had a smart @$$ tone to it.

It's DCX (DaimlerChrysler), not DMX (Dark Man Xavier aka Earl Xavier Simmons).

I did not mean to double post..I teach inner-city high school so forgive me if I come across a little abrasive (its unintentional).
Does anybody have any vibes on 06 employee pricing? Why does Truck Trend and some other publications keep mentioning the 6.1 in H.D.s if its not happening...just asking...don't throw bombs!

I would really like to see the 6.1L in the Ram. SRT-8 would be cool. Rumor I heard was that cost would be too close to the SRT-10. Seems kinda senseless, I guess, to pay near $50K for a 425hp V8 when you could get a 505hp V10. But it ain't a HEMI. LOL. I don't know. That's what I heard.

I wish you dudes would read my first thread on this topic...I am not talking about putting the 425 horse 6.1 in a 1500...I'm talking about the 2500/3500 series trucks with say a 385 horse or something similar...a 6.1 (that has been toned down a little). Something with a little more power than the 5.7 but not wanting the diesel. NEVER WAS IT MENTIONED AS A SRT!!!!

6.1 in a ram=good idea...
SRT8 ram= Bad Idea

RAM has an SRT 10
however the 6.1 would be a good Idea if they mass produce it like the Hemi...

I don't like this SRT Idea..

SRT should be dodge not chrysler and Jeep

Dodge what "should be" SRT's

SRT-4 = Neon/Caliber Model
SRT-6 = Stratus Model
SRT-8 = Charger/Challenger
SRT-10 = Ram/Viper

THATS WHAT IT SHOULD BE...
