yeah but if they did you could always mod the scoop and make it functional :-P

True, but if you didn't want to pay for all the mods, you're still stuck paying $700 for a dumb hood scoop. Eric's got a point.

Honestly, that truck all around looks dumb, why not put the stripes, oh, I dunno, OVER THE WHOLE truck,instead of just, hood/bumper/tailgate...

Why not, bumper/grille/hood/ROOF/tailgate/rear bumper.

I think the matte black looks really good on that truck!

Man I don't know about that front grill...maybe if they made it matte black like the stripes (or the Ram work trucks).

I agree that the V6 is much better suited to the 6 speed. Package it with 3.92's and that baby would pull just fine in 2nd and 3rd. When I look at the ratios of the 42RLE compared to the Getrag I can see why people carp about the lack of power. Granted the automatics come with at least 3.55 rears, butthe 42RLE's 1st gearis just slightly lower than2nd in the6 speed.My 3.7 does just fine if I'm in the right gear.

hahaha doesnt look bad but sucks they decided to throw that money into a 6!
Once again, that just proves that the dealership has no one that knows the Dodge tradition...[:@]

When I was looking at the Charger, the salesmen didn't seem to know much about their product. Maybe I should become a salesman. I seem to know more than they do.

That's true, but when they do things like those pics of the so called "Super Bee", it's insulting to the true enthusiasts. That's my point. I used to work at a dealership, but at least they used some common sense for the vehicles they would dress up.

That Dakota looks good, but it's like calling it a SRT6
