SRT8 GC (4wd) 6.1L~ 420HP & Tq (runs a 13- in the 1/4 mile I believe)

You could always look at Roush if you want a sweet F150, but I don't know know if they offer Warranty's. You can't just order them, I believe you have to send/drive them your F150.

Right now, I'm considering a Silverado w/ a 6.0 (vmax). I was really wanting the SRT8, but it gets **** for mileage (15 at best I believe). Compared to a few more for the Denali (I think you may be able to get Quadrasteer(((Fun for tracks)))), unfortunately, the Denali weights a lot more than the SRT8. That's why I think I'm getting the Silverado w/ 6.0.

It looks like you have a need for speed & power, that's why I mentioned those ^
If you're not caring that much about it, & more about pulling, you're probably going to want something with 4wd, you can go with the 5.3 in the Silverado & still hit about 20mpg on the highway.
I like the GMC Sierra. I was actually looking at one. Nice looking trucks. I have also looked into the Silverado. I have seen a few that have been dropped a few inches to give it the more aggressive look, and then supercharged. I myself like the Titan. I like how the rear end is more jacked up than the front. I also thought about a roush f150.

If I were to get a Jeep Grand Cherokee SRT8, I'd wait till 2012 for the simple reason being, it's rumored to have 500hp.

The upside to pick up's is that I can haul my bikes. Put them right in the back of the bed and use tie downs for them. The downside to the SRT8 idea is that I would need a trailer. I'd probably end up going with a closed trailer, so I wouldn't have issues with thieves. However, love it, because the truck is quick, a 4x4 and can be used for whatever. The reason I mentioned the two sedans, is because I have usually had coupes. I figured, that it'd be nice to have a nice sedan for once that I could customize to my own liking. Like, new rims, better tires, interior...Thanks for your input man.
