I have been waiting to drive one of the 1/2 ton four door Dodge trucks with Hemi power and the Lone Star package(20"wheels). Having driven just about every new truck out there with just about every engine/trans combo,I can tell you the Hemi Dodge will smoke a Chevy truck with the 6.0 engine. One truck I drove was a 3/4 ton longbed with Hemi power & auto and it was pretty impressive for something so heavy. One of the new 1/2 tons with that engine should be a fun ride,especially for less than $25K.

Sounds like a nice truck Jeff. Dodge never really had me sold on those power and torque numbers though. I would really like to compare it against Chevy's 6.0 motor. I have driven my boss's 3/4 ton with a 6.0 and it flat out flys! Enough to shoot down wanna be ricers in a single bound despite the weight :P
