i hate those dodge hemi commercials...
ok, so today i'm on my way home from court in hackensack and i'm going through Teaneck. I pull up to a light next to a new style dodge ram 2500, i notice the hemi badge on the front fender and think of the commercials and i see the driver staring at me. When the light turned green i hear screeching tires and it wasnt me, i look over and the dodge ram is at full throttle trying to pull away...well now i couldnt have that.  I punched it and within seconds, i was 7-8 car lengths in front on the truck. the lanes merged so i had to get out in front. Two blocks later i slow down to make a left and the dodge passes me and the guy gives me a dirty look...wtf... i think he thought he was actually gonna beat me... some people are so pathetic. I just hope he liked the sounds of my flowmaster and off-road y-pipe at 5k rpms

well dodge had some decent cars for certain time periods i admit that, but for many years now, they have been lacking. lol. Hell, my first car was a 73 dodge coronet 4dr, with a 318, that was the shiznit, but after a month of having my license...i know i needed something better, thats why i got my first f-body...mmm....1988 Trans AM GTA...ttop, tpi, digital dash, 50k miles...i miss that car... but anyway, I also got into the 80's daytonas a little, i had a 84 turbo z daytona and a 87 shelby z daytona, both 5spd, both 2.2l 4cyl turbos and the shelby being ttops and intercooled.. they were cool for what they were and looked cool, but they werent an iroc or trans am. now i got my SS and what does dodge make that could even compare? a neon srt4...yea right...(supposedly same basic motor thats in the pt cruiser gt)  The only vehicle that i will take seriously from dodge are the srt10 rams(vipers themselves dont count in my book, they are more as an exotic), when i find an srt10 ram on a highway or at a track sometime, i'll see if it can hold its own. i went up against an 03 cobra mustang and 3 times put him in his place so i lost respect for those already
