I think that's about what my truck would weigh. Is yours a 4x4? My old Silverado weighed 4810 lbs in full street trim and a 1/4 tank of gas. Add my 220 lbs (ie: fat ***) and it's race weight wass 5,030. I checked KBB before I got my Ram, it's the exact same length as my old Silverado, 227.4". It's a little wider, definitly taller but being tall doesn't add weight (it does make it harder to fit in the garage though) and they had the Ram weighing about 300+ pounds more. It's funny how you guys don't llike some Ram owners atitudes because of their "Yeah, it's got a Hemi attitude". Hell, a lot of Ram owners (including myself) don't like those guys for the same reason.

AMEN, guys like that and the retarded commercials both irritate the hell outta me. I dont even like referring to it as a "Hemi" rather a 5.7 dodge motor, but usually you have to say hemi this or that to get people to know what your talking about.

How about a race of any and all makes near Tampa!!!! I would love to go. I'll finally be taking the vortech to a good shop for the install on Mon or Tues and have it back and ready to go by the weekend!!! Im sure I'll get walked all over, but Id love to see the other trucks and talk firsthand with some of you guys. It'll be a good time. The internet just creates so many aggresive personalities that wouldnt surface at a face to face meet and greet. It would be great fun!!! Well I hear they have some stuf in gainesville so......
Dont mind my rambling....sorry
