Default Just ordered... 2013 Citadel, Deep Cherry Red

Yep, new color for 2013. Can't wait. Unfortunately there is extra wait time. Rather than 4-6 weeks, they say it will be 8-12 weeks. Low inventory in my area for the right Citadel, not to mention, no Deep Cherry Red Crystal Pearl Coat option on a 2012, so 2013 it is!

I'm surprised that I am the first to ask this, did the dealer confirm the 8 speed tranny in the 2013 you ordered?

I really liked that color myself, but the wife wanted a bright red and since it was for her I had to give in a bit.

Scottina11heat is correct. No 8 speed tranny for 2013. I considered waiting for the 2014 updates, but not sure there really is enough to warrant waiting an extra year. That, and I saw a review of Q7 when they went from 6 speed to 8 speed tranny, there was no mpg improvement. Maybe Dodge can make slight improvement with 8 speed tranny, but it's not going to be the silver bullet that cures fuel mileage. ...Maybe when they finally get a diesel version or a turbo, but that is not in the near future. ...2016 for a diesel maybe? We can only hope.
