Yes,all ZR-1's were equipped with the ZF 6spd. There are
some auto ZR-1's running around there but they weren't built that way from the
factory.

When I got my 99 Ram, I test drove all of the
trucks from the big three. (I was looking for 4x4 extended cabs) I didn't
like Chevy's low ground clearance, and what I thought was a wimpy stance and
NEVER cared for their interiors. I then drove the F250 heavy duty. It rode
like a brick! I know it was a 250 but c'mon! I did like the ride height
though! The price however was outrageous and the dealership didn't want to
bargain. I didn't like the new (back then) F150 styling so I didn't
consider it and still wouldn't. Lastly I drove the Dodge. The value for the
money was excellent, and the 4x4 height was nice. The seats were comfy and
it rode fine. It handled pretty well too. When the lease on that was up last
year, there was not even a moment's hesitation over which new truck I would
buy. I went with the newly designed Ram 4x4 Quad cab sport. I ended up with
$3500in incentives! Pricing was $500 over invoice. The incentives took care
of my down payment and I got 7 year 100,000 mile warranty. IT was a no
brainer! Everyone I talk to that has a new Dodge has nothing but great
things to say about it. If you are in the market for a new truck, I urge you
to go drive a new Dodge. You'll be very surprised. I'm not a die hard fan of
ANY brand. I love my Chevelle but believe me, GM seems to have no loyalty to
me as a classic GM owner, so why should I care if I support them. Plus with
bonehead moves like discontinuing the Caprice and giving all the fleet
business to Ford's Crown Vic (cop cars, cabs etc...) and dropping the
Firechicken and Camaro... well, they're just plain out of the loop! Sorry
for the rant, I'm still drinking my morning coffee! Later
gang...

Man, even I, a die-hard GM fan, am compelled to consider a
Dodge truck. They outperform the GM trucks with price, performance,
a far better warranty, and possibly even quality. I've had very few
problems with my GM trucks (89, 94, 97, 2000), but I'm still considering a
Dodge.
WAKE UP GM!

of 1/2 ton Hemi trucks,as I'm typing this. My local dealer had twelve of

out on my desk for a 1/2 ton four door Dodge with Hemi engine,Lone Star
package with polished 20" wheels,top of the line Infinity sound
system,etc,definitely no stripper. Price will be $24,700. I've always
been a GM man but they do not currently build a true four door 1/2 ton
truck with full 6' bed. Neither does Ford. On top of that,both GM and
Ford are priced substantially higher.Clint Hooper

I believe
last I heard the Hemi is only available in 3/4 ton and up trucks. No
1/2 tons. Also I really question you finding a hemi truck at under
25G's. Even a stripped out 2wd, no option anything... probably would
need to specially ordered if ya did... But I could be wrong as I no
real drive to buy anything with a Dodge logo on it and haven't looked
at them much. But yes cool none the less though. Mikey

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.Clint Hooper
