checked out some trucks
well i have a fully loaded 08 FX4 that i will never part ways with. i went the the auto show here in boston and checked out all the new trucks. the 09 150 is nice but i wont be trading my 08 for one. the new chevy is ok, nothing special. i was actually really impressed with the (cough cough) dodge. actually felt pretty good inside and i am a big fan of the new looks. i must say the biggest dissapointment was the tundra. i had very high expectations after hearing people talk about it, and former ford guys saying its the best truck out there. well the thing felt cheap. i thought the handle was going to come off just opening and closing the door. i am sure that 400hp feels good but the rest of the truck feels awful. i never thought i would say this but the dodge without driving the trucks felt and looks the best after the ford.

the power of the Hemi is awesome. pure and simple fun. I've been debating putting the 6.1 Hemi Cam into my 5.7 Hemi...supposedly you gain about 60 HP with the cam upgrade and tuning. That might be fun...and make driving it comparible to driving my F-150
these new Dodges look pretty, and the price is pretty good, but the shell around the motor is crap.
I also like it how Dodge has that new commercial about how "tuff" the new Ram is. They fail to mention they are running 1-tons pretending to be 1/2 tons.
