The (R) denotes no MDS.

Not the Mega Cab, it's too heavy. The MDS would never kick in.

FYI, 06REDRAM. The Mega Cabs are built on 2500 frames not the 1500. That's where alot of the extra weight comes from.

Freakin' huge interior in those things. To find a larger back seat you'd have to go with a fullsize custom van or a limo.

i11m10c2, If you have your window sticker, look at Engine: in top left hand corner. It should say... 5.7L HEMI Multi Displacement Engine, if you have MDS.
