Hopefully the Lightning will still be a "mash and hook" truck like it is now. Sure the SRT Ram has more power and everything, but it has a HELL of a time putting that down at the strip. The Lightning on the other hand is a lead-foot, tire-hooking machine. With that power increase...I really hope it doesn't suffer from the traction problems the Ram has. Throw some fat meat on her...=)

I think they need to offer the manual. I mean...just for those who love it. How can it have "sport" on it if it doesn't have a manual option. That said...with that much power I'd much rather have an automatic, if it can stand up to that power for 75,000 miles. The first sign of rain you'd have to run the lightning home or else you're just gonna spin out across intersections.
