Just wondering cause I've been seeing alot around lately if they were pretty quick and how well they handel. If you guys with the R/T's could chime in it would be a great help. We are thinkin about gettin one cause we need something more than jsut L's.

In a nutshell, stock-to-stock, L1s and R/Ts are very close in acceleration and handling. Differences are more likey due to drivers.

Sorry to disagree, but stock for stock a Lightning will take a R/T every time. Lightning's come Supercharged and a R/T does not. However, you will pay about $10,000 more for a stock Lightning and you can do a lot of mods to a R/T with $10,000.

Johnny said a "GEN1 L" is comparable to an RT. And a GEN 2 is less than 10000 bucks more than an RT.

Tom,

A good used one can be had for around 10-15K right now. If you get a RC then you can get into the 13's with little fuss... maybe 2k worth of mods. the CC's are a bit heavier, so they take more Ive driven a Gen1 and of course an RT, and I feel that stock to stock they are pretty comprable. Tho youll feel like your in a lowrider when you get in the RT Anyway, if you want specifics, yell out, and Ill work on em for ya.

Nope, That is me running it.

shakerboy

depending on what model R/T you get, it CAN be $10,000 less. when i sold dodges, my friend gene bought a brand new R/T for about $18,000 after rebates. now, granted, he was a friend and got the truck for invoice minus rebates, but if a Gen2 L stickers for $32,000 and you get a sales dept that doesn't discount 'em, that's about $14,000 in my book...
