So I have been driving an 06 rclb ram at work
#11
The chassis feel of the truck just feels better than my Z when I hit bumps it soaks them up better and feels firmer. Honestly if they do come out with HPT for HEMI dodge trucks then I may pick up an 04 I really like how it drives and cant imagine how a truck with 200 more hp than my work truck and better handling would be for a DD. They truely are nice trucks but I still am in love with my Z and always will be. Driving the dodge has just made me have a bit more respect for their company. I will say this their AC SUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCCCKKKKKKSSSSSSS!!!!!!!!!!! I was sweating my *** of today even with it on high. We have 4 06 trucks in the fleet and 2 have already been back for AC service one only had 1500 miles on it when everything except high went out. I didnt see the problem with that since mine stays on high anyway but whatever. Dodge needs to get their #### together on the AC thing but other than that I dont really have any complaints other than it being the basic work truck of course. The brakes saved me today too, I had a bed full of concrete test cylinders and a B***H cut me off bad and I had to slam on the brakes HARD and I dented the #### out of the front off the bed when the concrete went flying but I didnt hit her

Weird.
My dads crew cab dodge CTD is very uncomfortable...
I love the cummins engine and it goes pretty good, but the dodge is just horrible. Only other thing I like about the dodges is the ease of the column shifter, but besides that, GM anyday.

I had a 95 EC Silverado when I bought 00 EC Silverado, the 00 was much improved over the 95. My 04 QC Hemi Ram was much improved over my 00 EC Silverado. I made a post on LS1 TECH about a month after I bought it. I posted it handled better, rode better, by far braked better, turned tighter and stock for stock, the Hemi Ram was quicker the the 5.3L Silverado. That was two years ago now and I have no idea how my Ram compares to an 06 Silverado but I still like it very much. I've got the three basics for mods, tuner, CAI and exhaust, last time at the track I ran a 14.76.. My 00 Silverado with the same the mods, tuner, CAI and exhaust ran a 15.21 at the same track. I know, what about the weather and temp? Both were in March so it couldn't have been to warm but I really don't remember the weather for the Silverado. So far, I like the Ram better than I did either Silverado. No flame, just fact.
