Default Dodge dealers don't have Hemi Regular Cabs!

I've considered buying a Ram, but I want a reg cab HEMI. I started searching dealer inventory on their website.

Funny thing: Zero trucks on the lots like this.

They have some stripper reg cabs - looks like they're set up for contractors or something - almost all were V6s except one LWB with the 4.7L.

Anyone here have a regular cab HEMI? Where'd you buy it? (I'm in Illinois).

Seriously, I was amazed with Dodge dealers. They have three or four stripper reg cabs lying around, then they go straight to the $33G quad cab.

GMC and Chevy dealers were much better. Had some nice 'sporting' reg cabs withnon-stripperinteriors and V8s.

1st 3 dealers I checked online in my area all had one RC Hemi on the lot, all 3 were 4x2's, so it looks like if you're looking for a RC Hemi 4x4 you are out of luck...

I went through the same search. My Dealer was able to locate my 07 Reg. cab. in Pennsylvania.

You are better off ordering the truck. That way you get what you want and not settle for what they have.

If you intend on getting a duel exhaust, make sure the Hemi you order doesn't have the MDS. (Multible Displacement System). It won't sound the way you want it to.

Thanks for the tip Daves Hemi,

I didn't know you could specify no MDS.

I don't think I would get any good out of MDS anyway because I do all city driving.

Only way to get a Hemi p/u without MDS is to get a 2500...
