Pickup trucks

I have never been without a truck. Long ago I told myself "Self, when Dodge puts that Viper V-10 in a short bed pickup, we'll buy one." Well they did it, I did some research on those beasts. Seems Dodge in their infinite wisdom just took ALL the Viper engine transmission components and threw them in the truck without taking into account the ton of extra empty weight the transmission had to move. Replacing the clutch every 30K miles was not an option in my opinion, and that's what all the research indicated. Besides, the 5.7 Express will fry the drive tires with little effort :rolleyes:.
