Ram 5.7, Seconds?

October 14th, 2008 · No Comments

Dodge has a new pickup for 2009.  Well it’s the same Ram, but the new body-style.  

The 5.7 liter Hemi has been tweaked for more power.  390hp and 400lb-ft of torque.  The regular cab short bed version can get to 60mph in 5.7 seconds and pass the quarter mile mark in 14.4 seconds.  That is serious speed for a truck.  This isn’t a sport truck.  There isn’t any real pretenses of sport.  It is just a powerful V8.  This truck is going to win a lot of stop light drag races.
