shreveportSS Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 You will have to define "truck" and "Fastest". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sierra ss Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 It used to be the GMC Syclone and Typhoone. Not shure if the lightning was faster or not, it should have been since it had a V8. But then again it is a Ford.lol. I think now it would be the Ram srt10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brobradh77 Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 Doesnt mean much but SRT-10 popped up in my head first Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then again it is a Ford.lol. I think now it would be the Ram srt10. The Syclone, when new, was capable of accelerating from 0-60 mph in 4.6 seconds and could do a quarter-mile run in 13.4 seconds at 98 mph (158 km/h).

Black2003SS Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 Never hurts to look at the record books... Guinness says the sRT10 set it in 2004...1yr after the lightning set it. The lightning set the record in 99 when first released and then broke its own top speed record in July of 2003. Then came the SRT10. I believe the syclone held the title until 99 when the lightning topped it. Now, as for acceleration? The SRT10 still probably reigns that one. Stock L's are high 13's at best depending on year, track locale, etc. SRT10's can muster low 13's high 12's. The syclones were low 13's and the typhoons high 13's for quarter mile runs. Acceleration is hard to declare a victor because of the so many variables that come into play and you always ahve the elusive lurking forum junkie swearing to god he saw a stock "factory freak" run XX.XX at such and such track, so the arguement will live on forever. http://trucks.about.com/cs/2004dodgetrucks...aughn_srt10.htm Guinness has a very clearly defined way to measure top speed.

sierra ss Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 If only GM would of had the balls to supercharged the ss or denali's from the factory. Also cant understand why it took them so long to put a v8 in a mid-size truck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F1SSS Posted January 31, 2009 Report Share Posted January 31, 2009 In 08 I test drove an 05 SRT10 Ram and the salesman's pitch was "its the fastest production truck ever made," and he clearly saw my SSS parked next to the SRT-10. He made it very clear the ram was the guiness world record holder, then again he's a car salesmen.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shreveportSS Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 Actually Guiness lists GM's Holden VZ Maloo R8 as the worlds fastest production "Pick UP" at 169mph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippy Posted February 1, 2009 Report Share Posted February 1, 2009 Fastest is the SRT-10 as posted. Quickest to 60 was the Syclone, but other than that it is all SRT-10. They were the higest top speed, quickest quarter mile time, and highest quarter mile trap speed. The Joe Gibbs Silverado had potential, but never delivered as it should have. If you count the El Camino they went well for their day. It will however be interesting if Toyota takes their accessories and just makes them a factory option.
