That is one darn cool ad.
Pity they have to lie about it being the fastest production pickup.

No guys,I wasn't looking for dodge,It was an ad on MSN while I was looking my truck up. I thought it was cool. I don't understand why a truck can't be fast aslong as its used like a truck and has the pulling power? Some people want the speed of a car but need a truck and can't or won't have 2 vehicles.

Hope ya'll enjoyed it.

In stock form, I don't think there has ever been a truck available in the US that is as fast as the SRT 10, and that includes a 1970 LS6 454 El Camino. (Although, I'd really like an LS6 454 El Camino).

That it is (in the Guiness book of records), but that doesn't mean it isn't the "fastest production truck anywhere"...
The Holden Special Vehicles Maloo takes that title.

The thing will sit on 170+mph day in day out

Even my Pursuit Ute would be quicker (with regard to top speed)...

Then why doesn't Holden (GM) take a shot at the record? Although, it looks more like a car (El Camino) than a truck.

A guy at my local rc track has the srt10. A couple of us bet that we could be his truck. He failed to mention it was an srt10 (minus the decals)

we got stomped....
