The sport model looks sexy, better interior too. I hope they make an SRT version of it, with the 8.4L V10 or the 6.1L hemi.

Equipped with the new HEMI, the all-new 2009 Dodge Ram R/T regular-cab 4x2 model with a short bed and 4:10 gears blasts to best-in-class performance of 0-60 mph in under 7 seconds.

I'm glad I have my 08 Dodge. The 2009's cab and bed kinda looks like a Chevy or Nissan. The interior is too fancy for my tastes. Fancy nav systems and multimedia infotainment systems? What's the life expectancy for stuff like that? The floor console's design with the shifter doesn't allow for custom floor units to be used. They claim that the payload and towing capacity won't be sacrificed which is good. I guess the storage boxes in the bed rails would be OK if the truck is used only as a commuter vehicle, but it seems like a risky place on a work truck. If the rails are dinged or dented just a little, the alignment of the doors would be a problem. I also believe that the luxuries of this type of truck would eventually move the price out of the practical range for most people.

im not digging the cutouts in the rear bumper for the dual exhaust out the back what if you want to have it out tie sides instead then you have to round arches in your rear bumper.. ( i never liked the look of duals coming straight out the back i like them to come out angled behind rear tires)

I'm don't like the design. The interior is TOO nice. I mean, yeah, it is nice to have an interior that looks classy, but dodge has to remember...IT'S STILL A TRUCK!! You have to make it tough and functional. The exterior design doesn't look as aggressive, looks as if they stance is lower and that makes it look worse. Definately don't like what Dodge is doing here. I think that '02-'05 model years look the best.

they will from what I heard it will take a year or two to get a mega cab for the new design. but my guess is the crew cab will be around teh size of the mega cab
the crew cab is smaller then the MC...in between the size of a QC and MC......no SRT package will be made as of now (think about the engine options they have, and no real reason to build one...they built one, it was the fastest production truck so why do it again...granted i'd like to see em do it lol) the center console is not available in the RC from the truck we've had in our garage over the last 5 months...official unveiling of it is tomorrow at 10:50AM eastern time

Simple solution, buy the 4.7. That exhaust exit is a Hemi option.
