04 Diesel Ram VS Ford diesel.
"So I’m in-between towns today riding along side this new body style (03-04) 4 door 1 ton diesel ram, The ram is pulling a old big thing that looked like it would gather up hay. Anyway I’m in the trooper just riding along going from light to light. After about the 3ed red light it dawns on me that in normal driving im not pulling away from this ram. I don’t think a lot about it and go on my way. We get almost into the next town where they have another row or street lights. Each one about mile apart. These two young guys (looked to be late teens) in a extra cab super duty diesel come out of god knows where, (hardies or long john silvers) anyway they have no muffler so you get that VRRRROOM sound the fords make. He pulls up behind me and starts revving the motor, Im like WTF? Im in a trooper, any way its a newer version of the SD, it has the clear head lights and 6. ? sticker on the door. light turns green I pull out normal and then get in other lane in front of the ram. The ford slows down and start gassing in it a low gear so the front end is going up and down. They do this for about 2 block then take off then slow down then take off again. We get to another red light and its Ford, Me, and the ram behind me. The guys is the ford start power-braking the truck at the red light. Im like ok…. Light goes green they drop the clutch and are out of there… I’m thinking to my self if I was in the Gelaendewagen I would see how bad that diesel is. Im sure I would have lost but G has to be stronger than the trooper. Anyway they do this again at another light. When we pull out the ram moves over in the fast lane and passes me. I look over at him like WTF? Are you doing. There where two older men looking to be in there late 40’s and dog I hope? ( not sure what moving around in the back seat, It was either a dog or goat) Anyway he nods at me when they pass. The pull up next to the ford and the kids start there hopping again. We are running about 30-35 mph The brake lights on the ram come one and a little black smoke starts coming out the exhaust, On the 3ed or 4th hop of the ford the Ram takes off. Pull about a half a truck on the ford, the ram shifts and the black smokes starts to roll out the back, Im like holey hell he’s pulling the ford. So I floor Todd (the trooper) and they keep pulling away, at 50 mph the ram had a full tuck and about 5 feet of the trailer in font of the the ford. 65 its about the same 70 the same 75 the ford starts to make up some ground, He is almost to tailgate of the dodge. 90 the ford is to the rear tires, 95mph the dodge just starts walking off. Im assuming the ford hit its limiter. I stayed in it to 110 mph at which I let out because, well if you have ever ridden in or driven a Isuzu trooper you know what I mean. Anyway I think I might have to pick up a new diesel ram. That would make a Hell of a supra puller
Not a exciting race between a lambo and a Shelby cobra but I thought you would get a kick out of it.
