This is a car, not an ark. Scholars aren't even sure what a cubic
was. A 442 cubic car would be way too big for most roads.

moparman are you serious? i mean if you are a true moparhead you know
440-6, 426 hemi, etc. a-, b-, and e-bodies. old school muscle. these new
"hemi's" are just hype and marketing, i see an srt-8 that looks like it will
have some muscle, but please.

i put a hurting on all these guys with new hemi trucks who think they got
the ****. completely obliterated one the other day - at the next light the
guy goes "uh, that's a little better than what i'm used to." (i drive an 04
cobra vert, stock pulley, intake and exhaust mods) i guess i shoulda said,
"hey that thing got a hemi?"

but you are coming into this group disrespecting ford trucks and mustangs.
("****ant ford owners", "chicken-**** mustangs") i have no disrespect to
dodge because i used to live eat & breathe mopar (60's and 70's musclecars)

i actually cant wait to run a srt-10 truck, that'll might be a little closer
(if he can drive it), but i NEVER see any.

Sorry Erik.... I have to agree... a good Chevy truck with the right pipes
sounds better than my Mustang ever will.

But sound isn't everything...

Here ya go..... you regulars might have seen this from KB, but
Moparman should take a look at a 2v GT vs a badass Viper.

http://www.kennebell.net/FORUM_PICS/brent10335.wmv

The Viper guy probably kept going and left the track after
this run.
