- That is a pretty cool pickup. I don't think I have ever said that in terms of any Dodge/Ram, but it fits here for me. Looks good, takes balls to put a SC in a 4X4 pickup, and see who wants one. I commend them for that.
- I'm sure it's an awesome truck as is the Raptor. I'm not nearly cool enough to ever own either one, though.

$92,010 standard pricing w/o accessories (Launch Control included in that price)
To really get full benefit of trucks capability one would need to do ALOT of Off-Road Baja Racing, Rock Crawling and Sand Duning.
Otherwise running around on the streets is going to end in LOTS of Speeding/Reckless Driving Tickets, Worn out tires (specially made by Goodyear) and 'street queen'
(reminiscent of Lifted 4x4, big tire, triple shocks and chrome running tbes that NEVER saw a dirt road in their life)
Why you always got act like a Debbie Downer? And the starting price is $71k.
Price and Build Site...went to $92K w/o adding ANY goodies
And someone needs to bring a little reality into these 'woo-woo' posts
The $92k price tag is for the limited edition Luanch Edition package which is an additional $12k more. Without adding any upgrades, the price is $71,790 per the build site.
Just because you can't afford something or don't think it is worth the price tag does not mean it is "woo-woo" or that someone else can. It just means the person saying it probably has sour grapes syndrome when they scorn things they cannot have.
- Wonder if I can use it as a toad to help
Push the MH up a hill?! - What category does that Ram fit into? It's not a truck where you would fill the bed with stones or dirt, you're not buying that to tow anything...Not with the Hellcat Power plant. It's not going to be a snow plow truck either. Probably not the wife's grocery store ride or the typical teenagers first vehicle either. I suppose it could be used as a race truck. Awesome looking and very fast though. Remember back when you had a cool or expensive ride, always waxed and sparkling. You would drive real slow down the street and all the heads would turn and the hot chic wanted to go for a ride? Those were the days.

The category doesn't really matter, lots of people drop that kind of coin on luxury or high performance vehicles and this is no different. The fact that it can't haul or tow much doesn't make any difference just like it doesn't with the Raptor. I have other financial goals and priorities that make something like this a poor fit for me, but if I were in a different situation I'd probably rather drive this or a Raptor around than a nice BMW or whatever.- 2021 Tesla Cybertruck crew cab 6 1/2 ft bed with 14,000 lb tow rating does 0-60 in 2.9 seconds for $69,900 and has a 500 mile range.

Good thing rvnet doesn't drug test...you'd get banned! lol
Only way that thing is towing 14klb 500 miles is if half the load is a 125kvA gen set!8.1 Van wrote:

Yeah, see how fast those suspension parts will break under the heavy weight of the Cybertruck going over the whoops on the trails. I would love to see the Cybertruck in a race like the Baja 1000. Althouth they would have to make a new class for it because there is not way it will complete it in the 20-25 hours other vehicles do. maybe in 40-50 hours if you can get a generator out in the desert to recharge it.ShinerBock wrote:

Very true. And, we are on a forum dedicated to "camping" with items that far exceed the price of a sleeping bag. A pretty first world problem juggling living in one house and going on vacation in another mobile abode with all the comforts some cultures can only dream of having.
