Didn't go head to head from a stand still.

If that dodge was stock, there's something wrong with your truck or the combination of mods you have are seriously hurting performance. I have the same truck you do and I can easily eat up anything but SRT10s and hang with a trailblazer SS. I've done stop watch verified 0-60 runs of 5 seconds flat with my truck. There's no way that truck didn't have a power adder on it (i.e. laughing gas, etc). You have to think about this for a minute - the dodge you ran has just a wink more (advertised) power, but it's soooooo much heavier than your truck, probably by more than 1000 lbs not including the payload. It just doesn't add up.
