Yep, they are a big mid size SUV . I think the dodge site (build and price tab) is down now for maintenance.






Thanks again.

 

I have a fairly recently built V6 Citadel and overall it drives like a dream. I notice the transmission with the 8 speed more than I did in previous vehicles. I never even thought or paid attention to it when driving except maybe when accelerating hard. With the 8 speed it likes to jump right into 7 quickly around 35-40 then pushing it up to 55-60 there can be a little acceleration delay. The ecco mode makes acceleration much more of a chore but whenever I am in a hurry I just turn it off and it moves pretty good.

I know what you mean by wanting the RT looks in the Citadel model, that is really what I wanted. If I could have dropped a V6 in an RT it would have been perfect. Overall I probably slightly regret not getting the V8, but the chrome is nice and I can live with it and loving the mileage. Just over 1k miles and getting little over 19 mpg with almost exclusive in town city driving in the traffic hell that is the Atlanta burbs. Hoping after a few k more miles it goes up a little more.

 

A vehicle this big deserves the V8, especially if you ever plan to tow/haul anything.

There is no replacement for displacement. lol

 

I've got a cpl Jetski's I might tow once in a while which the V6 can still handle easily. I also have a 2012 Tundra with 5.7L V8 that doesn't have much trouble pulling things like space shuttles heh.

 

Thanks everyone. I'm thinking to go test drive one next week.

 

If you drive the loaded R/T you will want nothing else......

 

I'm thinking about the R/T too and price is pretty much around $44K to $46K with all options.

 

If you can haggle a little bit, you can get it down from there. Even better if you got a CDI or employee pricing. I got mine with EP pricing and the $2000 incentives out the door with tax, title and license for $42,600. Have everything on it as far as options except the captains chairs and sunroof.

While the MPGs aren't excellent in the R/T (hoping that summer gas is a little better), I really prefer the V8. Very fun when you want it to be. The thing about the R/T is that it can be very civilized, calm, composed, and quiet when you want it to be or it can be loud, brash, and intimidating if you want to put the foot down.

It all just depends on how much you feel like flexing your right ankle.

 

Some of us on this site have trucks that would have no trouble pulling things like a Tundra pulling a space shuttle, and it's not made by Toyota heh

 

This might be a dumb question. What is CDI? Right now they only have $1000 in rebates/incentives so maybe have to wait for better offers. Sunroof is not a must for me but other options will be great and prefer 2nd row bench seat.

Again, I prefer the R/T and in Silver or Gray. Another question what's the difference between NAPPA leather and the standard leather? If I consider getting this vehicle should I go with NAPPA leather?


Thanks.
