Last thing I would do with a brand new $40K to $60K Cummins with 146 miles on it is run a drag race! I might think about it at about 5K to 10K miles.
The old saying, "More money than brains", would be the perfect caption for some of these "racing from light to light" and "racing to the top of the mountain with a load" videos. I didn't gloat when I owned the Chevy's that won some of those shoot outs....never know when you could lose or something happens to your truck while doing these kind of things...As stated, you sink the kind of money one puts in these trucks, no matter the brand, last thing I want to "go out of my way" and do, is abuse it...don't get me wrong...I have in the past, but finally "got a clue" and "grew up", (my wife told me to do that:))...
I'm one of those guys, though right or wrong, that belives about the time I start gloating about something of mine, or cut on something someone else owns, the next thing that will happen will be something go wrong with whatever it was I was gloating or bragging on and it'll just come back to "bite me"...so I try to stay neutral, though it is hard with some on these forums who go "above and beyond" to take digs at the lowly Ram truck and their owners, as THEY see or depict it...BUT, if it keeps them busy and out of trouble....more power to them, glad we Dodge owners can help make your day...Happy July 4th.:B
I had a happy July 1 but happy July 4th to you NC. You take things too personally .... I would have enjoyed the video just as much if the Ram had wasted the Chevy or if a Ford had got humbled. Until Pickuptrucks.com comes out with something better the you tube videos will have to do. All three of these trucks are fast enough for me so first up the hill isn't going to come into play on deciding my next truck. Fuel economy could though.
Story of my life...take things too seriously:)..oh well, we're all different, guess I look at things a little differently than I did years ago...just ignore me and I'll eventually go away:) Not much into Utube, unless it's watching some sports replays :)....Anyhoo, if I offended you by my reaction, I apologize...I need to get off this forum, it appears I make too many people mad, or offend them and I really don't go out of my way to do that....sorry...........
