Default 5.7 Hemi in Dakota's! Who knew??? NOT!

WTF? Are these people ignorant, or just plain don't know any better? Apparantly we didn't realize that 5.7 was a choice in our trucks. After seeing this, I can say that I personally would never do business with a company that thinks this way. If the link doesn't show up, thne EBAY item number is 350194241273

Ok, my bad. Although I didn't think there was a non hemi 5.7 produced for sale in the US, I was making a general comment on the fact that a part is being sold for a truck/engine combo that does NOT exist in the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA. I will fully research every topic before I post from now on.

Since when does Dodge (Chrysler/Plymouth/Jeep/Daimler/Cerberus...) build a 5.7 that ISN'T a Hemi? :/

+1
But I suppose political correctness is now the ONLY way to live in OBAMA-LAND. Personally, I don't give a chit about what is being made or driven in Mexico, Ethiopia, Darfur, France or any place else. I was JUST POINTING OUT how can this guy sell an air cleaner kit for a truck & motor that does not exist. Anything else he may have becomes suspect at that point???
