Ok well I was on my way home form work this evening minding my own business and out of no where this dodge ram 3500 pulls up next to me now remember were doing 70mph and while hes right beside he guns it and im in 6th gear running at 1500 rpm so I gun it too and I hear him pushin on the throttle for more gas and the turbo spooling up but im still walking on him so then he backs off and I go back to driving normal then he decided he wants to try again so im like ok so were doing 60mph at this point so I decide hell ill down shift to 5th to get a little more speed so we takeoff and I walk all over his ***. Is it me or is that just weird that I beat that truck 2 times? Its a 2007 Dodge RAM 3500 with 5.9-liter Cummins Turbo Diesel

2007 Dodges with the diesel have the new 6.7 liter Cummins diesel.

whats so weird about that? thats about the outcome i would expect.

well the fact that im rolling at 70 at 1500rpm and hes at like 2000 or 2500 (im guessing) and the turbo is spooled up I just thought he would have a better dig then me

If it was stock I don't see a problem... But those turbo diesel trucks become raped apes quickly with a few mods and get more torque than anyone knows what to do with!

Do you have any mods?

1500rpm in 6th in a Lt1 and you walk away?

I mean yeah you should be quicker when racing, but are you sure they where?

I mean you car must be hella quiet if you can here a stock diesel truck and turbo well enough to claim they are at WOT?

1500 rpms in 6th gear is usually quiet isn it? When i gun it in 6th gear i go no where... im wondering how u walked him in 6th gear... seems odd.

My dodge runs around 2000 rpm at 70mph. I really dont think you would walk away if you left it in 6th. Also at 70mph my truck doesnt downshift into 3rd if I punch it. No comment on the 6.7-5.9 liter problem with the story?

dont sleep on thoes trucks. 3 of my friends drive dodge 3500's 2 of them are faster than my car lol of course this is after lots of modding.

I don't get how you can go anywhere when at 1500 in 6th. Even with my 4.10s that's useless to move

my g/f's dad has a black F250 w/ the PowerStroke, i think he told me it's a 7.3L, but i'm not for sure. It's an 02 i think, I keep tellin him he needs to bolt in a turbo... he keeps telling me to get away from his daughter.
hahah JK, it is a torque monster though, and it's not modded.

he probably told you that because you are an idiot, and he doesnt want his daughter contaminated by your stupidity. The engine is already turbocharged. Look at the side and the little badge will probably say "Powerstroke Turbo Diesel".
