Here's some feedback. Don't waste ur money on the R/T package. All you get is some SKECKSY decals, and some embroidery, and the non-functional hood scoop.

You would be gettin the same truck for less if you went with a Laramie version with the 4.7L HO.

Just my .02.

Or, you can do like I am, and make your OWN R/T that no one will have a dupicate of. :-)

yeah do what i'm going to do. I bought a Laramie QC with the normal V8 in it, and I designed my own decals, went to a place that took the images (black and white) and they laser cut the images out in the color vinyl I wanted. ALSO what i'm going to do is take out that small V8 and drop in a 5.7 Hemi one of these days. well another year and 9 months to go before that money comes back to me so that I can do it, that will make it a REAL R/T. Getting a functional hood scoop helps, just having it there for looks is dumb, unless it was a $50 Lund hood scoop, but the extra money.

if you want an r/t look for a used 2003, these were the last of the real ones. you can do so much more to the engines than the new 4.7 ho.

I wont get a used truck for my daily driver, plus I love the 4.7. I wont be modding it much either.

Does anyone have 1/4 or 0-60 times for a RWD CC 4.7HO?? Just to get an idea of the performance

If I get one I will probably get a Laramie and throw a R/T decal on the bed
