I agree anything over over 350 to 400 is really a waste on the street, unless your street racing and do major suspension upgrades. I have 15 Challenger with the 5.7 Hemi (380 HP) and even with the traction control, if I'm not careful I can blow the tires away. I will admit though it's a lot of fun. Good luck with your truck.
