  Hey, I think I adequately demonstrated my Dak loyalty at the end of
the post... ;-D The Lightning is definitely faster, but I agree with
ya, I don't think its a fair challenge. Not only from the aspiration
standpoint, but from a price standpoint as well. About the only thing
they have in common is that they're both trucks. :-) I guess its
sort've like comparing the McLaren F1 and a Z28. :-) For a million
bucks, I bet you could make that Chebby haul some serious butt. :-)
