Hey I totally agree a total fail on the author's part and his facts. The more intersting part is people have been wondering what a 392 would do in a Ram so here is a little data for it. :dontknow:To be fair, the fastest Ram SRT10 we've ever tested was a 2004 with a manual transmission and 4.56 rear end, which hit 60 mph in a blistering 4.9 seconds and ran the quarter in 13.2 seconds at 107.1 mph.
^^^^^^FAIL!

"The last Ram SRT10 we tested, an automatic transmission-equipped 2005 model with a 4.10:1 rear end, needed 5.3 seconds to hit 60 mph and 13.7 seconds to run the quarter, though it was traveling slightly faster at 102.9 mph."
FAIL AGAIN!!!!

What fools? Had to be a Quad cab or RC in crappy weather?:dontknow:
It needs it's own identity. My 2c
I think it's a cool concept and would like to see it being built. If they do proceed (which I doubt they will) they need to make it unique, give it it's own body kit, lower it, change a few things....don't just drop an engine in it with 3 new badges, anyone can do that.
For me, there will never be an SRT Ram like the first (and currently only) generation that we own. Those 392 Hemis are great engines but they are also great engines that are in many other vehicles in the MoPar range. It looses it's appeal and uniqueness. That's one thing I always get a kick out of and love about my truck, the 505ci Viper V10. If the looks of our trucks don't drop enough jaws, when they ask if it's a V8 and you explain that it's housing a Viper V10 it literally leaves them speechless.
I'm lucky enough to own a large cube Hemi of the original kind (Dodge Challenger R/T) and having a Viper powered truck is the total opposite, both great machines but both are totally unique, the Viper sound, feel and vibe are truly one of a kind. I hope they never make another V10 Viper truck.....some may say that's a bit greedy others might see it as I do, protecting the heritage, uniqueness and history of owning a limited production Viper powered truck.
