Neal40000 Posted August 19, 2008 Author Share Posted August 19, 2008 i suppose so, the F-650 is basically A TRUCK. but in a pickups body sort of, you can find vids of it off road but it struggles with the huge amount of weight. yet with that ram, it can go any where any way. in terms of looks, im on the Fords side, but yeah for use, the ram definitely !

Not just having a big truck for the sake of having a big truck (which is the category the F650's and CXT's fall into). Would want something I could take anywhere. The only job a truck like that would be doing off road would be some heavy hauling... and what fun is that? And how often would you do it? I know you're in Tennessee, but really do you just haul tons of heavy sh*t through the woods all the time? I'd personally rather just have a crawler type off road vehicle. I just don't see the joy in hauling a bunch of sh*t through the woods. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't see the joy in hauling a bunch of sh*t through the woods. It's all hypothetical. Would probably never have any use for it for anything but the ultimate tow rig or recovery vehicle. Maybe use it for truck pulls or as some kind of expedition vehicle. An expedition vehicle might fall into the "hauling sh*t through the woods" category. Really would just be something I could drive anywhere. I could roll over dunes, ford rivers, or cross artic tundra. Besides that, it's too big to really do any technical off roading.

I sat in one at my local car show, maybe he had his seat up or something, because I had to duck my head the full time, and I had a hell of a time getting out. I think he must have had his seat up then because I could not fit in that thing at all.

I've been in a few cars that were next to impossible to get into and things that I literally had to crawl out of (midgits and spitfires mostly). But I think I could drive most of them if I had too.

Picolini Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 Could have sworn there was a video where Clarkson sat in a Ford GT and it was knocking into his head... maybe it was some one else?

That's why I'd need some fatter tires like I said. For sure. I could only imagine the faces on people when a little Beretta spanks them... and I would have to imagine it because I would be kicking most peoples ass! Especially if I had the car stripped down a lot and it weighed less. Stock comes in at like 2,800lbs, I think, so I'm sure I could keep it around there with the bigger engine and turbo/super charger... oh my, what a time I would have Oh, and I want a 90's one, although it is essentially a late 80's vehicle. edit: Oh, and I fixed the picture of Ronny.

lurchseesu420 Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 (edited) You could put 345's and a locker on the front but it's still going to most likely torque steer like a bitch. Unless you had traction control and the odd, little, torque-limiting, launch control dealy that the Mazdaspeed 3 has.

Use a modified Camaro drivetrain to make it rear wheel drive. There's been attempts at RWD Beretta's, and I think there's been a few drag race only ones built. It takes a lot of fabrication, that's why no one has done it. It's not the EXACT same engine, as the one in the Beretta is laterally placed, while the Camaros is longitudinal, which of course allowed the set up of the intake manifold and exhaust headers to be different. Buuuut, Chevy did have a twin turbo V6 with AWD as a tester for their AWD car platform. I think the engine had something liek 345hp. @TLC, nice pics. Minus the GT90. Glad they did the Ford GT instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Picolini Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 As for the GT90... Of course, it was just a concept test car. I'm sure it would have had better performance numbers than the Ford GT with the 700+hp V12. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
