I'm right there with you. The thing is an absolute boat. Honestly, it's a pain to drive. It's more than 2x the weight of my other car. Unfortunately a vehicle this size is necessary with a wife, baby, and 210 lbs worth of dogs.

At 4823lbs, the 5.7L V8 (335 hp, 375 lb/ft torque) feels like it struggles to get it moving. I'm testing the waters with the wife, to see if she'll OK this purchase:

8-10 PSI supercharger kit for 500 rear wheel hp and 450 lb/ft torque.

After that, perhaps something to help cut down on the waddling this vehicle does when cornering.
