Having driven both quite a bit, I'd take the SRT-10. IMHO, it is just more fun.

omg, why would you want a viper engine in a full size ram, if you ask me... thats GAY, super GAY.
I mean seriously, theres enough big ass vehicles on this road, now there going to make a huge truck with a viper engine? for what purpose to be big? if your going to make a big truck, or buy one at that, use the diesel... nothing will match the tourqe on a diesel... I mean seriously ohhh lala I have a big ass truck it has a viper engine! i payed what? 60K? what a waist of money, but typical of north americans to buy gigantic gas eating vehicles... to bad it only runs a 14.3, my little mx-3 with a swapped engine that cost me less then 2 grand can out run one pretty damn easily.
and to me, buying a friggon full size work truck with a viper engine is plain idiotic, espiecally when mated to a auto, reminds me of the big chevy ss truck lines.
if you want a performace truck keep it small, and simple. like the lightning, [censored], I wish ford made that concept ranger lightning, that was neat.
I'm starting to think dodge is going way overboard now, to bad ford didn't continue the lightning.

um, they put it in there to go fast 
and also to have a car to match/better the Lightning and take out any competition...looks like they were pretty sucessful to me.
I'd take the SRT-10...looks better & faster...the price tag is killer though.
:edit:
also you are kind of kickin yourself in the a$$, the Lightning is a moving brick on wheels. No different than the SRT-10 and has WAY more potential then your little mx-3 could ever dream of...

I must make a "few" corrections here:
NUMBER ONE...there is NO way in hell that truck only runs a 14.3, unless the driver can't drive 
#2. Who cares about the gas it uses, seriously, this is a car enthusist site, not some "green room" 
#3. Check your stats, the SRT-10 is a SIX SPEED, a HURST SIX SPEED for that matter
#4. "Keep it small like the Lightning", are you kidding me
The SRT-10 is a truck for the guy who owns a couple muscle cars and is used to the power of his Hemi or 440 six pack (more gas guzzler cars so you probably don't like those either )
