Default What do yall think?

ok long story short im a chevy man at heart but my 07 has blown 4 transmissions, makes random noises from underneath and just random **** that im tired of. Thhe other day i took a drive in an 09 hemi fully loaded and that thing is sick, the interior blows chevys out the water. Anyway everyone put your chevy pride aside for a sec and tell me wat you really think of these trucks. Anyone ran against one. Give me all opinions

Get a performaBuilt or FLT and stay happy.

I dont like the way Dodge ride too stiff for me, also not real crazy over the new front ends and the coil spring rear suspension would have to go upgrade to the leaf spring set up. IMO.

I looked at a Dodge rcsb with the Hemi then looked at support for it and heard crickets.

I could get more hp, more mpg, and generaly a longer running truck with my 4.8 then the hemi becouse of support.

But stock nothing beats a Hemi, but aftermarket nothing beats a GMC.

Another thing to keep in mind, as already said, the aftermarket support for the Dodges is not the same as the GM's, especially in the trans. dept. Which means you're going to fork out more $$$ for what there is. I'm sort of in the same boat, I need something newer & am back'n'forth as to what I want, but I every time I start looking at another brand I always keep coming back to GM. Easy to fix, parts are plentiful, & the parts are fairly inexpensive. Just my $.02.
