Default Dakota News

This are the new things for the new dakota:

Dakota R/T for Late September.
Full Swing Doors on ClubCabs
And 6 Speed MANUAL Transmission

I don't know if they are gonna use that tranny for the R/T yet, but I hope they do.

The full swing doors should be good.

Have you seen the Great Clips tv commercial featuring their giveaway 06 Dakota RT? The grille is body colored and there is some sort of forward intake scoop in the hood.

Those doors will be out later in the model year, we are still building the 90 degree suicide doors. As will be the R/T. I don't believe a manual will be offered with the 4.7 H.O.[:@] Stupid stupid stupid!

I thought they were going to put the Hemi in the R/Ts. Can you imagine 345hp with a six-speed trans under the hood of a truck that weighs close to 3200lbs. OH YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!![sm=icon_rock.gif]
