If you want some comparison performance on a 2013 Ram 8 speed with a 3.55 rear go to the link.

The 2013 Ford was a 3.5 EcoBoost with a 3.73 rear

Again it is not a comparison to the new 5.0 but maybe it will help.

Just make sure you take a video of your reaction when you get beat. $50 says you say something along the lines of 'haters gonna hate' or 'at least my truck looks better'.

Lifted = slower, big tires = slower. Cmon man. You have a gorgeous truck but know it's place.

Maybe he's supercharged or something and that's why he's so confident or at least got a tune and stuff

This thread is ridiculous!! The Hemi Ram has no chance against any 5.0, 2.7 or 3.5. 6 or 8speed transmission.Jan 2015 Car and driver posted a 0-60mph time of 7.4 seconds and a quarter mile time of 15.7@88mph.This was a crew cab 4x4 Laramie longhorn with a 3.21 rear gear 8speed. Sure the 3.92 would be quicker but still not enough to beat our trucks. The 3.5 platinum in the test did 5.6 and 14.4 quarter with 3.55's. We know the new 5.0 is pretty close to that with the right gear. I say no contest.

The Hemi has more hp and tq than the 5.0 or 2.7. A no contest win doesn't seem plausible.

Against a stock Ram 8 speed with a Hemi? No chance. Again, I beat one by 3-4 lengths 0-90 in my 14 that was leveled and had 33's. So if the guy at least has a tune I'm sure he'd beat a Ram as well
