I've always been a fan of SY/Ty's.  I bought Typhoon manifolds and a big turbo to fit on my 2002 5 Spd S-10 Blazer but never finished the project :(

 

I also like the Ram SRT-10 and the Silverado SS

Now the Typhoon.....

Now for looks you have to base that apon what was good  looking the time their were produced. Typhoons were sick looking when they came out compared to everything else (and still is sick in my eye) The lightning just matched the more aero dynamic designs of the time.

 

Ty and Sy Rule lol

I'd have to agree with the fact that they where sweet looking for their time. But at the same time Id still have to go with the lightning!

The syclones and typhoons where the QUICKEST production truck, not the fastest. The fastest is the SRT-10. :)

I like the SRT-10 pickups, but I wouldn't own one. For the amount of money you spend on the SRT-10 you could get a similar equiped Cummins into the 12's. Plus, you could still tow more, haul more, and not have to pay the insurance of a specialty vehicle like that.

The Raptor is going to be sick. Any details you guys want to know about it? For right now, it will have the same 5.4 V8 that the current F-150 has. Nothing terribly special about it.

The big news is the new 6.2 V8 that will be available in the Raptor late 09. This engine will replace the current V10 in the 3/4 and 1 ton pickups for either the 2010 or 2010.5 model year. Should make 400/400 at least. I think the only F-150 that will be offered with the 6.2 is the Raptor..

It is much more of an offroad truck than a replacement for the lightening.. But, if it has sucess... Why not build a street version? :D

Put some decent tires and a good driver behind an SRT-10.... it would waste a stock Typhoon.... but unfortunately good tires isn't considered "stock". But the Cyclone's and Typhoons are still pretty decent sleepers.... I like 'em

 

The New Raptor is sick. I seen one with all the bras all over it rolling around a town up here, they filmed their off-roading videos at their test facility just a few miles from here.... don't know if it'll actually be "Baja" capable, but it'll be sick for a stock truck

Lightnings are quick and ugly Sy/Ty's are fast, and SRT-10s are faster, second fastest dodge faster than a SRT-4 Neon slower than the Viper.  Sorry Fords trucks I find are ugly. The Sy/Ty's my two favorite truck and SUV need manuals. I seen a Syclone one day and man was I impressed. Thought I say a Sonoma GT once too.

I love performance trucks. I'm not a huge fan of the sy/ty other then the powerplant and drivetrain. I'm just not all that fond of the looks. I love the lightning/SRT10 and have considering trading up for both, but in the end they're heavy.

One day i'll just have to upgrade:

S-series trucks(1st gens) are just a shy over 3000lbs. They have Colorado SS I dont see why they wouldnt make one. hell they did all that fwd crap.

I have to say I am a Dodge fan and side with the SRT10 but did enjoy one helluva ride when i test drove the Typhoon when it first came out. I almost bought it with 5g down in hand but the salesman pissed me off when he didnt think i was serious and thought i was just out for a joy ride. I have to give it to the syclone to be quick as hell especially beating a vette of the same year inthe quarter mile, but the payload is about the same as well(500lbs).

Very true! The lil' red express had official 1/4 mile times of beating the same year corvettes/Mustangs. If we had a set of Lil Red Express cylinder heads on the Dart, I think 600hp on pump gas would have been more than capable.... very awesome cylinder heads

gonna have to agree with the comment on the srt's i love makin em feel bad in my 6.7 cummings and i could pull a house off its foundation. some guy was talkin smack at a vip show i went to about his srt he laughed when i asked him if he wanted to go hit up a side street and race for emblems... wiped that smile right off his face and took his srt emblem. I will admitt he was a !@#$ty driver would have been a lot closer if he knew how to drive but im a nut. best part was listening to the other guys give him crap for the rest of the day for getting beat  by a lifted 4x4. teach him to throw 24" rims on a car and try to race....lol
