the 5.7 hemi that was in my rumblebee was a thirsty son-of-a-gun! But as someone said it may be to do with the low gearing!
I would love to be able to afford the SRT but if i could i would maybe like to replace the front grill with an all black item and have a set of vintage red R/T badges on there for a bit of nostalgia
I think for everyday purposes including a bit of fun up at the local strip the R/T is quite a hard package to beat. Sure the 6.1 has more poke and is "the top line model" but the performance of the 5.7 is more than enough for me to cruise around and enjoy whilst still being a little bit more economical
