Default New Dodge Viper Powered RAM Truck (look out Lightning)
FWIW - Seen this one folks?

From the Detriot auto show via Edmunds.com:

I've always loved the Ford Lightning, but given the problems Ford is having with these (leaking intercoolers, door cracks, cracking foglights) and their other cars I'm glad to see some possible competition for their "Battle Elephant". I guess for moving 2.5 ton truck there really is no replacement for displacement.

I'm sorry but I really don't believe that thing will come anywhere close to the price of a Lightning. If it does, Dodge has my deposit tomarrow

Looks ok other than the wheels. They are kinda big. Look better with no more than 20"s, and lowered about 1 more inch
