Because only the bravest will admit it on a GM board and then you see what happens.

I guess because most on here have chevys. Not too much first hand experience.

Not all Hemi owners are brainwashed, a few of us are in this realm of reality. The Hemi Ram is a good, strong running truck but it is a truck. Some Ram owners get a Hemi engine and instantly think they are as fast as a Z06 Vette or a Viper, they are the ones that need to be slapped back into reality!
