6.0ss Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 Ok guys, I have a friend that works at a dodge Dealer and I can hop on into a Red or Black SRT10 for 40k and change. I am looking at the black one, we all know black is the fastest . What are your opinions of this truck? Have anyone of you driven one or been able to drive in one? My problems with it are you can't tow with it and it is only 2wd, Things I like, Stick Shift, 500hp, racing seats, 22's, 6 speed, in a real truck! Let me know what you think, I kinda want one!!

I CORNER Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 The SRT-10 standard cab is impractical as you noted. Consider the new SRT-10 Quad Cab with automatic, 4 doors and standard aluminum tonneau cover (if you like the ride). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexaSS Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 for that price i would probably do it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
m396 #00-011 Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 I wouldn't be caught dead w/ a high-hp RWD truck in chicago winters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boeman Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 I wouldn't be caught dead w/ a high-hp RWD truck in chicago winters. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I beg to differ... you proably would be! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperSport Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 I just saw the first one of these trucks around my neighborhood and i suprised you don't see more of them. i like the silver the best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krambo Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 Just my opinion... I like the SRT-10. Very impractical however I like the looks, the power and really like your price. I still would choose the SS over it based on functionality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dylan06SS Posted October 19, 2004 Report Share Posted October 19, 2004 Great toy... but not something I'd want as a daily driver. Best guy to ask about this is Adams2003. His dad has (or had) a silver SRT10... as far as I know Adam thought it was cool, but still liked his SS better. He had mentioned that his dad might be trying to unload it b/c it was just too impractical... but I haven't heard anything else on it in a while. Where is Adam anyways? Never see him on the board anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6.0ss Posted October 20, 2004 Author Report Share Posted October 20, 2004 I agree with everything here, thanks for the opinions, I guess what I am running into is that, I had a Very Modified Mitsu Evolution, that was running 11's, (that was a sick car but very hard as a daily driver) Then I got my SS, Awesome as a daily driver, but not quite as fun, or fast As I would like a truck to be. Now I know I can modify the truck, get racing seats put in, which is what I am debating. Here is the Delema Drop 8k into this truck or drop it into a SRT10, wait untill the new lightning comes out?

Not only are there the noted feasibility issues, but I felt that I would be loosing options. Heated leather bucket seats, led turn signal/heated/electrochromatic/self fold mirrors, AWD (for the winter), tow package (I do a lot of towing), everything that I would really miss now that I am use to it (I guess what I am trying to say is that this truck has spoiled me).

You need AWD or 4WD here in the burbs. Look at all the salt they put on the road...... 6-Speed Daily driver= Not Fun.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lee Posted October 20, 2004 Report Share Posted October 20, 2004 Consider the new SRT-10 Quad Cab with automatic, 4 doors I agree. I would definately consider an SRT Quad Cab. Haven't driven one yet but love the way it looks and the 500hp engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiveWire Posted October 20, 2004 Report Share Posted October 20, 2004 6.0SS, drop a Radix in your truck and a few other mods, it makes a hell uva difference if you have the loot to spend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
