the new LMM also beats the older Duramax's..

not trying to discredit your race but thats like a 6.4 against a 6.0,a no brainer in my mind.

I think stock truck vs. stock truck its going to be really close. I'll vote for the Dmax, just because of the HP/weight ratio is better.

not sure why the poll is the way it is but i will warn you don't believe it..i have seen stock LMM run low low 15's and with a little diet 14's isn't out of the picture.

If chevy would build a real truck with a complete "WORK" suspension system, and not an "old mans" suspension system, it would be a close race. When you can fold up the front end of a Duramax with just a tuner, there's something wrong. Then again GM is leading the way for the bailout.

stock vrs. stock Dmax

ok Pat that hurt that was a sucker punch belowe the belt linebut its ever so true but then again since the market demands a car like ride even in a truck thats what they offered for those older gentlemen that haul campers all over the country but it can easily be fixed just like the Dodge tranny's..now if us young guys wanna play we have to pay.

The Dmax probably weighs more than 1k pounds less.
