2drTahoe Posted June 5, 2004 Report Share Posted June 5, 2004 Interesting short bit on the JGP RCSB with the 4.8L SC and 5 spd. They dog the SS a little, but then they come back and say that the JGP doesn't handle as well - whoa! That's cool that the stock SS handles better. They show a red SS when they talk about it being slower than the lightning and a black SS when they are talking about the handling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dylan06SS Posted June 5, 2004 Report Share Posted June 5, 2004 Red is . . . . ah forget it! Im still not crazy about the Joe Gibbs truck for the money . . . nice, but I still like my SS better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2drTahoe Posted June 5, 2004 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2004 ...Im still not crazy about the Joe Gibbs truck for the money . . . nice, but I still like my SS better. Yeah, I like seeing the reg cab, but after hearing the pros and cons I'd go with an SS. Better handling and looks, too much cab is the only downside I see Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maximus Posted June 8, 2004 Report Share Posted June 8, 2004 The SS just has that "WOW" factor that everyone else wants and can't have! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdss Posted June 8, 2004 Report Share Posted June 8, 2004 I think there is the perfect amount of cab, the extended cab was one of the selling points for me, even though the SS badges on the side was the main reason! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WisconsinSS Posted June 8, 2004 Report Share Posted June 8, 2004 The SS just has that "WOW" factor that everyone else wants and can't have! A guy a block over from me bought one and I was excited for him but I do admit it was fun having the only one in town. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctrow Posted June 8, 2004 Report Share Posted June 8, 2004 Try having someone at the same place you work getting one. Even the same color. Mines a little different with the Centerlines but at least mines faster... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdss Posted June 8, 2004 Report Share Posted June 8, 2004 I thought I would have the same problem here in Jacksonville, FL, but havent seen but 3 SSS's around. Hopefully the Turkey Run Meet in Daytona works out. C.K. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ledfootss Posted June 9, 2004 Report Share Posted June 9, 2004 i also have one at work a black one and the only other i have seen in my town is a blue one and i kinda like it because i get to see how good they do look. you know it looks good in the drive way and on pictures but you dont get to see one driving thats were you say damn that is one sweet truck. and i would never own another single cab in my life even though my last truck was faster i would not hold my daughters seat!

Nightshift Posted June 9, 2004 Report Share Posted June 9, 2004 The Gibbs truck got me hooked on the blower... Best of both worlds now. WW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dark Knight Posted June 9, 2004 Report Share Posted June 9, 2004 On the same show they tested the Magnum Hemi R/T. It ran a 5.5 second 0 to 60, thats a high 13 1/4 mile isn't it? Not bad times for over 4000 pounds, an automatic and 2.82 rear gears. I am thinking about buying a mineral grey one. Check out this link and click to enlarge the picture of the mineral grey fender in the R/T section. http://www.dodge.com/magnum/photos.html?co...heels&type=left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
