punkt71 Posted September 10, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2006 All I know is I am sure glad Chevy didnt throw some stickers of an insect on the side of the SS... because I wouldnt have bought one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the SS is a $30k truck then the SRT is a $40k truck. With employee discounts people are getting SRT's cheaper than that! And, I think he put more than "a couple $k" into his truck. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SSLink Posted September 11, 2006 Report Share Posted September 11, 2006 Again, nice kill Punkt71. I also like both trucks. Obviously, I own an SS. What I really respect about the Dodge is that they had the cojones to to take the no-holds-barred approach and put their biggest, baddest engine in a sport truck, knowing it wouldn't compete with the Viper because of weight and because it's intended for a completely different buyer. And, you get 500+ HP with a factory warranty. If only the General would do the same. An LS7 in a new SSS or better yet a Colorado SS would be awesome. I wish GM would take some Daimler/Chrysler pills and be a little more uncompromising. All the Gen III/IV engines have great potential and our trucks are good starting points for mods, but it would be nice to be able to buy a pickemup with 500 horses right off the Chevy showroom floor. Then again, I'm sure I would just mod it anyway. Maybe some day... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krambo Posted September 13, 2006 Report Share Posted September 13, 2006 100% agree. I have always liked the SRT10's,...just needed the features that the SSS offered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misterp Posted September 13, 2006 Report Share Posted September 13, 2006 Those are nice trucks; I almost bought a SRT-10 myself, just couldn't get away from the fact I needed a back seat - the AWD is nice too. Mr. P. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However i just dont think that chevrolet is ready to put a hand built 505 hp monster in.....a truck. Sorry just dont see it happinin man. its bad enought that they are considering putting the LS7 in the new camaro. Now i know chevy is kinda guilty of it with the TBSS with the LS2. Chevy does not need to look a dodge, lets see here, dodge threw the HEMI at every car and truck they make basically, and now they are selling out with putting their infamous viper engine in a truck. I know its fast but still. I mean you would think that dodge would make their HEMI more potent than it is. cuz after all most of us here have killed many of them. they should have ditched the 345 hp model and introduced it in the 425 hp model. and i bet they would get more respect from competitors. and now that i think about it, FORD is doing the same thing. they have the ford gt engine which they use the same blower and block in their lightnings. N E ways, dont get me wrong i think its a great marketing tool but i just dont think Chevrolet is gonna sell out like that. Sorry i wasnt tring to start a flame war here just stating my .02 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
