Guys I'm kind of bored with my F150 EB. I really don't drive it too far (I work real close) I've had it 3 years now. I have always wanted a Lightning, and also the SRT10 Ram. The ram would look titties next to my Viper. Plus a it's manual. Any other ideas for a truck/SUV? Staying under $20k or less would be great.

I vote Lightning. Someone on here was just selling theirs and it was super clean?

I vote build a 2011+ Ram RCSB with 8 speed trans and 5.7L with forced induction and call it a day. I've been thinking of that after I finished getting the motor back in the cobra and get my 89 GTA back on the road.

I have a 2016 Ram Sport 4X4, rcsb. It's a pretty quick truck for being stock. Plus, I ordered it with the 3.92 gears, which I had in my last truck. This one's got almost 400HP and 410TQ.
I don't know how much boost you can throw at it safely without doing damage though.

Much like the rest of the hemi engines 8 psi is usually what most stop at some have lived fine at 10-12 psi. But 8 psi should be close to 550-575 hp any more and your talking trans, rear, transfer case, etc. work.

how so zem ?

They’re just not high quality vehicles imo, it’s from the time dodge almost went under. Noisy, very very basic interiors, maybe I’m just nitpicking.....why not put top mount turbos on the truck? Or swap for a Tremor and blower?

I am a little bias since I owned a 1995, 2000 and 2004 Lightnings so I would say the L. My good friend has a black SRT10 alongside his black 2004 Viper and its nice but I liked my 04 Lightning better. The SRT is quicker stock but the Lightning is built solid. I had some slight mods done on my 04 and it was faster than stock.
