I expect we'll see more of this-- This is what they call "passenger
friendly". It's for all the people buying pickups and SUVs now and
wishing they had all the convenience and creature comforts their old
sedans used to have. It's not for real truck people.
After all, Dodge'd hate to tell them all "Go buy a car!"-- cars aren't
cool. And the profit margin on cars isn't near what it is on trucks. :)
I like to think that Dodge won't forget all of us people who want to drive
real trucks-- though, after the R/T towing debacle, perhaps I'm wrong on
that, too. :)
