Honest thoughts on the later ones?
Still sludge monsters like the early ones?
They claim 310 hp. Can it be believed?
Looking at newer trucks, 2010-12ish reg cab long bed. Currently everything I see available is either a 6 banger (not interested) or 4.7. (a regular cab in itself is dang near impossible to find these days) I miss badly the 318/360 as those are what I have always bought, both carbureted and magnum versions.
I'm a fleet mechanic but the chosen brand at work is Ford (yuck) I haven't had the chance to actually get my hands on a newer Mopar V8. Just go by what I have been hearing from dealer techs I have known for years about them
But have owned dodges all my life, don't see reason to get something else now. I do have 1 holdover from my favorite era of dodge trucks as my winter project and it's an old slant 6 powered beast. Will tell about later,
