Hmm - we have not had a good flame war in ages.
GEN I's are awesome with their 4.7L powered semi hemis and all you 5.2 L Gen II
dak owners who drive trucks that look like for rangers cant beat the R/Ts with
their lightening killer 360 CI magnums and quad cabs are the best since bread
was sliced with fastman TBs driving on Yokohama Geolanders which are
billiontytimes better than your stupid BFGs! on cragar wheels which suck
because my truck has R/T wheels but its really a Gen I base truck with a 4
popper that has a gargantuan hood scoop that you all dont have and my Gibson
sounds infinity times cooler than your Blowmaster exhaust!!!
BWAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!
