If you do decide to switch over to a car, think about what you do use or could use your truck for when it is needed.
I use my truck for just driving to and from work. Nothing gets put into the bed there. I just won't allow it.
My inside of my bed has maybe 2 surface scatches. Very clean.
I do haul a trailer a few times a year. Having the ability to own a truck has a lot of advantages over a car. The car may be faster, but you cant do anything else with it but drive in it.
There will always be a truck in my family.
If I were to buy a car, it would be the new Camaro. I would even say Corvette, but I'm thinking reality here. Not in my budget.
I'm very bias to Dodge, but the new Chalenger coming looks pretty awesome too. They would definately have to take away the look of an Intrepid *** end like the Charger has for me to even begin to consider.
I say keep the truck! If you do decide to sell it, I want to swap you Corsa systems. You know why.
Why wont you mod the truck to make it faster? Hell, slap a 100 shot on there and some slicks, you'll be in the mid to low 12's. I've already seen it done when we were at the track together a year ago.
I would like to see how it would take to a 125-150 shot.
I may even add some NO2 to the S/C set-up after a FLT trans gets put in.
Your truck has the potential, you just haven't given time to explore it.
Good luck on the decision!

Jim I dont use my truck though I feel like i'm wasting its advantages. I'm not sure if I want to throw gas on my truck, i'm too much of a pansy for that. But I would consider some drag radials. I could wait for the Camaro or Challenger and maybe by that time be able to have both my truck and one of those.

Yeah man I want both but just don't think I could do it.

I hope this makes you change your mind and keep that truck...
