Default Re: 5.7 vs 5.7

Direct from Car & Driver Mag's test and reviews of the 5 4WD 1/2 tons:
0 to 60 AND Mph @ 1/4 mile
Chev 7.4 89
Dodge 7.9 86
Ford 8.8 83
Tundra 6.1 94
Titan 7.0 89
Sorry to confuse, I had 0 to 60 seconds and Mph in the 1/4 mile in two distinct columns but they merged in my post.

The 0-60 for the Toyota DC is 6 seconds flat. The Dodge Ram is somewhere over 7.

The way I figure it is, if you buy a Dodge you'll be using that Lifetime Powertrain warranty quite often. I doubt you'd use the Toyota's warranty.

It's a pretty well known fact that the Dodge transmissions suck.

Ive had two newer dodges, an 04 and an 05. One 2wd, one 4wd. Both with the "Hemi" motors. I have nothing bad to say about Dodge, both were solid trucks and I had no problems with either (unless you consider 8mpg a problem).

I will say this, the Tundra is 10x more fun to drive, you dont see one on every street corner and stock vs. stock, stock vs. slightly modded they will put a hurtin on any "Hemi" Ram out there. A Ram will need a cam and other work to be in the running.

The warranty will be worthless if Chrysler is out of business. Chrysler is having serious cash flow problems. Their sales have really dropped off.

In my opinion, the only reason to buy a Dodge is if you need a diesel. I thought the Dodge's interior seemed cheap.

Reliability wise and resale value, I would chose the Tundra hands down. 2wd 5.7L tundra is around 6 seconds 0 - 60. My Toyota dealership offers a lifetime powertrain warranty if you have all your scheduled maintenance done there. Tundra has quite a bit more HP than the Hemi Dodge.
