8mpg city and maybe 17-18hwy (eewwwww)....make sure you check if the crank
balancer has been checked (they're prone to coming off - updated kit fixes
this).
But yes...definitely a fun ride - especially with just a few basic mods
(Cold Air, TB, and Headers/Exhaust)...those really make the power go up. :)
Aside from that - all of the Viper engine products fit the truck (obviously)
with the exception of Superchargers...truck kits available. Really easy to
custom tune as well.

I understand. I'd buy something like that because it's a bad-ass piece
of machinery. The collectibility would be simply a bonus. The price
listed for it makes me wonder how much lower it could go. If its toward
the bottom of its depreciation, maybe it's a good value. Heh. I'm trying
to make a rational business decision about a truck that has little
redeeming social value. Sheesh. At least it can still haul stuff.
