No way I’d get a Dodge. Yeah 700hp is cool and all but it’s a Dodge. For me it’d be Ford or nothin’

 

looks like they just copied the raptor, even put those stupid amber lights in the scoop. Do automakers even have original ideas anymore?

 

No

 

Of course they copied the Raptor. Gave it bulky fenders, reservoir shocks, and did the Dodgiest thing they could think of... shoving the Hellcat engine into it. As far as the lights, I think that’s a legal requirement. It doesn’t look stupid on the TRX and Raptor, but looks really stupid on Tacoma, 4Runner, and Tundra’s. Shit a few days ago I saw a Tacoma with amber lights on the roof (the type you see on duallies)... just why bro

 

The amber lights are not required beyond the corner markers, only trucks above 1 ton (optional on 3/4 and 1 ton) have legal req for additional marker lights. As for the rest of the statement I can agree.

 

We are.

 

Look I have a 100 post
Guess I blew that one

 

I see 101 my guy

 

Hey! I resemble that remark!

Ditto

 

What can ya say? Short beds are classy

 

And long beds are useful

 

Well you’re an access cab so this doesn’t really apply to you, but the short bed is technically better off road... shorter wheel base than a DCLB. As far as capacity goes, a long bed couldn’t possibly help me in this situation anyway.







plus LB’s are ugly af

 

The KW was my favorite truck to drive. Hated when I had to get in an International or Freightshaker. Uugh

 

Does that OE style roof rack work pretty well? I looked at the aftermarket Prinsu & others but I don't really want the bulk & WIND NOISE I keep reading about.

 

I’d take my Cummins over the powerstroke any day. Been driving one at work for almost 2 years. Thing just doesn’t impress me at all. They just don’t have that shove you back in the seat when you floor it feeling anymore. It’s just meh.

 

I’ve driven Freightliners, Volvos, Kenworths, and Internationals. At the top is Kenworth and Freightliner while Volvo sits at the very bottom. That truck sucked ass

 

The first time I used it for anything was the same time I took that picture. I got it for looks since the bald roof looks ugly to me

 

I actually liked driving one of the older Volvo’s. Every Peterbilt I’ve driven had a shitty clutch.

 

I like the way it looks for sure, I just don't need anything else that does not work

Hey why don't you come down here to Gods Country & do a group buy on ceramic coating to kick off your new business?
I figure several of us have storage buildings we could put you up in so it would feel just like home
We could even help you install your suspension kit if er a when it gets here

 

I’d want strength in my ideal diesel truck. Quick 5 minute search yielded these results:

6.7L Powerstroke has 475 HP and a whopping 1,050 lb-ft of torque. That’s insane. I believe the 6.7L Cummins does about 400 HP and 990 lb-ft of torque
