[QUOTE="rtmozingo, post: 1372616, member: 24616"] Hah, I knew what kind of post to expect as soon as I saw your username. My grandfather and father-in-law both have the biggest V8 in their Silverado. I appreciate Chevy taking the alternate route with deactivation, but all three of us prefer my motor. Unlike their V8s, there is no delay when I step on the throttle, and I've more power and torque than they do. My mileage is not far off either. They both thought I had a big V8 initially. The rest of your post is senseless. Of course the new Ram interior is nicer - they are competing against a 4 year old interior. As far as offroading goes, weight is not your friend. An HD truck will never do as well as half ton for that reason. To OP: Each mode allows customization. Deep Snow/Sand is normal offroad, so try that or just Normal with the TC button held down if Baja is too much for the conditions. As for tires, I have trouble getting my rears to stick even at 33 psi, so if you disable TC you should have no problem smoking the tires. Don't forget there is a manual shifting mode, might help get the shift points where you like them. [/QUOTE]
