I'm a bit frustrated with Chevy seeing as though I own a 2018 Silverado and it's overpowered by 6 cylinder Ford or the same size engine for its way overpowered by it even the Chryslers out power the Chevy Silverado how come Chevy has not done anything about this very seriously contemplating turn it back in and buying a Ford

I literally spanked a 15 f-150 with the turbo'd v6 last night with my 14 5.3...

They might have higher HP numbers, but I'll stick with the devil I know.

I have a hemi in my 06 300, and while I'm not unhappy with it, by the numbers it's 330 or 340 is still less than 355, but it'll spank my truck all day long, gearing and whatnot. (yes I know the newer trucks are posting like 390HP)

I'm content with mine. I'll be dragging a pontoon soon, so I'll get the chance to compare the 14 to my 00 with 3.73's and see if I still like it.
