Ha ha! I think I need to pull up in the 2001 SVT Ford Lightning and blows
his truck to the moon. His truck couldn't keep up with the F-150 Lightning
version let alone the R/T with the same modification.
A 98-99 Dodge R/T with the added SC unit and properly tuned and tweaked, the
truck lighter weight/HP ratio would out run the NASCAR version of the F-150.
So would the Lightning from SVT.

kick your dodge's butt beond belief, so its your own fault you did'nt stop
to look at a real performance truck and even if you wanted to look at one
now you could'nt convince the very proud 3000 owners to part with them,
anyways you would have to catch up to one first and that aint happenen in
your dodge, your lookin at a 14 second quarter mile to keep up with me, and
thats with a 4800 pound truck that handles like a sports car and gets 18mpg
on average, and just plain looks better than a DODGE
