Rear window that slides down, like the toyota's, I think that's pretty cool

I would like that!

a top console to store mor things
and maybe if they could angle the rear in the quad cab so that the seats would be a little more comfortable and angled instead of the straight up seating position.
and my personal preference side markers on the fender or mirror for turning/switching lanes. Sometimes cars don't see you switching lanes.

Live Axle in the 1500 RC and QC 4x4s (partial to live axles)

30MPG with the Hemi!!!!! (yea, Im smoking crack apparently)

More leg room in the back seat of the QC, not as big as the MC. I like the interior room of the MC, just not the look of the elongated cab. Put a little bit longer door on the QC, add about 6 inches to the cab length, allow the rear seat to recline a little and allow for more leg room. I dont care about behind the seat storage, the underseat storage is enough for me. I do like the little flip out shelf, nice for putting the cooler on when you go to the game and have been tailgating all day.

I drive a 2wd but I like the idea of dodge retaining the straight front axle for the 1500 4x4's. I hate ifs being that I have a back ground in four wheeling so I think ifs is junk. I hope dodge never phases it out of their 2500's and 3500's.

Wheel well liners should come be standard on a $40k + truck.

I'd add the 6.1L HEMI, Change my color from silver to the GOMANGO which I've only seen on the daytonas, a FUNCTIONAL Hood scoop should come as an option on all models not just the sport/daytona/srt-10, wouldn't mind if they came turbo charged as well ( ooo think a turbo charged 6.1L HEMI in a Reg Cab 1500....a guy can only dream ).....Other than that though I love my truck

Oh and I second the motion for free gas and beer for life, thats a great idea!

1. Rear sway bar
2. lower gears
3. do something about the turn signal/wiper lever.... everytime i have my wipers on and i go to put on the signals... the **** moves and either turns my wipers off or on full blast
4. Put in LSD
5. when i go from a stop and punch it, or just doing a burn out... i would like it to keep spinning insted of doing that little hesitation it does to gain traction

2003 Ram 1500 5.7 2wd

You think that is bad, my '05 has AWD and you can't break the rear tires loose. What the hell did I buy HEMI for if you cn't spin the tires once in awhile?

I can one up you there, I have a lightly modded Reg Cab 1500 with the hemi and the only way I can peal out is by throwing the original tires on. Otherwise the tires I have on it now will not do a burnout at all even if I hold the brake and lay on the gas they wont, hell they'll barely chirp on a wet road.

Wheel spacers, I wish they came with a more agressize wheel spacing where they stick out a little bit more, not extreme, but a lil more. And the sport 4x4 package actually made it look like it goes thru trails. A light bar, brush gaurd, heavy duty lights...and a locking diff would be nice
