I will say that it feels similar to my 4.7 Dak at
lower rpms,and it might not even be as fast,I don't
know. Haven't driven it hard yet. All I can say about
that is,there are other factors. It's a little more
truck,with more room. Actually,I haven't gotten used
to driving such a big vehicle yet. The main reasons I
got this Ram instead of an 08 (or even 07) Dak is for
the room,and I got a better deal on it than I would
have gotten on this one new 07 Dak QC I looked at (the
only one I liked). Gas mileage between my old Dak and
the Ram is going to end up being about the same,too.
Thanks!
