I ordered a 22 Ram from Koons for a fantastic price, it came in with eTorque. I passed.

I'll pass on all eTorque crap.

I've heard many stories about eTorque and most, not good. That's one of the reasons I ordered a 2024 Ram Classic. I was able to order the Hemi, without eTorque and my Ram Classic fit in my garage, as it's 4" shorter. I don't understand eTorque and what was the problem. I played it safe, bought the Ram Classic and the truck has been great.

My friend got a hurricane. Way faster than the 5.7. Hard to believe but them turbos spool and that truck plants you back in the seat. I was really impressed, but it's still a 6 cylinder

Yup.

Before getting my DSRT 392 I had the 400 hp/415 lb ft 3.0L Ecoboost V6 Explorer ST.
I had the dealer install the factory backed Ford Performance Tune (430 hp/465 lb ft.).
With that it was as fast as my 392 (13.1 sec for the ST vs. 13.0 for the DSRT).
But it wasn't a V8, which is why I made the switch.
The 392's only downside was the price.
ST sticker was 54k, 392 was 86k.

That right there is their problem. We all 110% agree. Not going to give them $90k for a pick’em up truck. If I ever want one an old used one will work just fine.

The 89k Hurricane F-150 cost almost exactly what my 392 was. All vehicles today seem overpriced.

Any vehicle with an "E" or an "I" is a pass for me as well.

On a perfect day, with good gas a DDSRT 392 can pull off a 12.7 at 107;)

My Explorer ST with the factory tune caused it to have occasional wheel hop, never an issue with the DSRT 392.
And the ST did not have Adaptive Damping Suspension, Launch Control or Performance Pages.
All in all, it's pretty clear the 392 is much more performance orientated.
But the '22 ST Base Price was $50k, the '22 DSRT 392 was $70k.
Not sure all of the 392's extras amounts to an additional $20k.
But I guess that's the price you pay for being different!

That's the problem, no one knows what it does except raise the price and add more shit to go wrong!
