Nice ride. A lot of time and money invested. Never really understood supercharged pickups.

Unfortunately neither he nor the white BMW next to him understand proper parking etiquette....LOL

IMO, I don't really like the look of it.

I donno... to me the truck just screams


It's red, which is a terrible color for this truck IMO and the windshield looks like it's off a WWII Half Track.

The taillights are clip ons, and they're dirty and block light at that... I donno about you guys, but playing with my tails and reducing the brightness isn't my cup of tea.

Exclamation Move over, dude

Well, unless this hemi Ram is REALLY supercharged, even IT will move aside when the Ram SRT-10 pickup with the 500 HP / Torque Viper engine gets on its tail. The Ram SRT-10 is to date the most powerful production pickup in the world. The Ford Lightning and Chevy Silverado SS are wimps in comparison.
