How much weight will a srt 10 haul

Apr 18, 2006 7 Replies

Hi



What difference is there between a quad cab 1500 5.7 hemi



and the same truck with the V10 in it.



Will the srt only cope with a lighter load ?.



Thanks


A year or so ago I looked into buying a srt or a lightning. the deal at the timewas you couldn't put more than 500lbs in the bed and you couldn't tow anything. So I went for the lightning, a real fun truck. This may have changed with the newer srt's.

Payload on the SVT has typically been less than the SRT. Neither have much capacity. These trucks are made for speed, not hauling. Here's some specs on the '04's:

This compared to the '06 1500:

Take a look a Dodge's page:

and go to the SRT10. They say the payload is 900lbs. in the rc and the qc but towing capacity in the rc is n/a and 7500pounds in the qc. Go figure.

Do you want fast? Or do you want Viper fast? Ram SRT10 Quad Cab® is the four-door counterpart to the world's fastest production pickup with a top speed of over 150 mph. The secret? Five hundred cubic inches of Viper V10 power. Delivering a staggering 500 horsepower and 525 lb-ft of torque, this race-bred powerhouse not only hauls through the quarter mile, it also hauls up to 8,150 pounds in tow.

Only 525 lb-ft of torque? My little ol 6 banger has a little over 600 ;-)

My 6 cylinder Ranger splash hauled a 2 ton boat over several big hills and launched/recovered it on a regular basis.......course I had to drop out of

5th gear to get over the hills
