I pulled out of my driveway at 5:10 this morning and hit the 4 lane. A few minutes later a new red dodge 1500 short bed, regular cab blasts by me. He is stopped at the next light when i pull up. I didn't even look at him. When the light hit green I jerked out in the usual snappy titan launch. He came out kinda slow and behind me and didn't punch it till he got rolling a little. musta not wanted to spin his wheels. anyway, that'd where I wanted to go too. as soon as I heard him open up I pushed down on the pedal just enough to pull steadily away even though he was flogging for all he was worth. he quit at 70 mph, realizing he was just never gonna catch up.
It always seems to be the Dodges. I've never received any crap from any other truck drivers. I hate to generalize, but it never fails to be a Dodge who has to be the jack@ss of the day...

About a month ago I beat a camaro SS needless to say he was surprised! And just last week I puled up to a camaro z28 and he wanted to go so I told him "you know a couple of weeks ago I smoked an SS" and he laughed. He was not laughing at the next light!

I had a guy in a jacked up/piped avalanche (yes, you read that right) eggin me on. Sad thing was I couldn't get next to him at any lights because of this stupid car that seems to think you should stay next to cars in the next lane.
So, at the last light before leaving town, He gunned it again and I just stayed right on his ***. The whole time (while egging and this last light) he kept looking in his mirror over and over... lets just say his eyes got pretty big when I stayed on his butt and he saw me yawning and giving the "not a chance" finger to him...
I wish I could have gotten next to him to tell him there's no FIN way he was THAT tough... LOL!
But, seeing as how the lanche's are so ugly, this one did look pretty nice.. So I'll give him that.
the pacers that I hate are the ones that decide that when you change lanes to get around their slow a$$ it's time for them to change into the other lane as well. You drive up on them and its someone who decided in the middle of rush hour traffice they want to go on a sightseeing trip.....only sightseeing they'll do is of my tailgate as I fly by them.....

I'm kinda new to this deal so be easy on me!!!! Rite now, I am one of those Dodge Guys.(not much longer I HOPE) My 4.7 Dakota is a really nice truck,BUT ,NOWHERE near as nice as the TITAN KC LE that I test drove!!! The Dodge does not have as much power as the TITAN,BUT I also dont have Brake problems,Radio problems or Drive train troubles And best of all NO PAYMENT BOOK!!!!!!!!
I'm pretty sure that when you beat the SS/Z28 they just underestimated the Titans speed. Either that or they suck at driving.
When I drive my Z28 I get Rams pulling up and trying to race all the time. It's not worth my gas or the ticket I would receive to put them in their place. I'm sure they roll by and say they beat me anyway.
I hate for this to be my first post, but at least it forced me to sign up instead of just looking around.
i agree w/ flavor. ss cams are running low to mid 5 sec 0-60 un-modded. the best modded TITAN ive heard running is mid to upper 6 sec (read on some forum somewhere). he musta been sleeping. or wishing he had a new COBRA. lol.

There is both a Titan and a Z28 in my household, love my Titan a whole lot but no way will it out drag the Z28, sorry Titanmaster, you know I love ya!
Be careful with your beautiful truck.

Never argue with idiots. They'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

I had a guy in a F250 power stroke with the banks turbo kit pull up to me at a red light leading to a freeway on ramp. He starts looking at me and reving it up to spin his turbo up and gives me this grin like don't even try it, well at the green we both take off but I get about half a truck length ahead and he can't get in front and "his" lane is about to end. The guy get's a dose of reality and brakes hard then proceedes to follow me for about 5 miles where I get off the freeway and this is where it get's good as he can't see the pair of local PD on motor bike on the left and just tries to get me going again, at the green he hammers down thru the light and the PD's then light up and I see him pulling over as I wave to him as I go by, too funny.
Those F250's with the banks turbo kit do have gut's, damm.
