Power seats. 12 pack CD Changer with 8 speakers.

I am currently waiting for the price right now from Tom Hellerman (the
Internet guru from the dealership-Jack Powell Chrysler). I contacted him
again today to find out if he could do it. The stripes and headers are part
of the package deal I had setup. As soon I get the word I let you know.

Not sure about the tires.

But here is the low down on the Durango R/T. You get the following with the
R/T package: everything that's in the SLT+ package plus these: 250 HP 5.9L
V8 (the added 5 HP over the stock engine comes from a sport tuned exhaust
and a performance PCM...but it's not the Mopar Performance PCM), 3.92 full
time 4x4, color matched running boards, 17"x9" R/T wheels, two tone leather
seats and suede door trim. I think that is about it...I may be missing a
few little things but I don't have my brochure with me right now.

And yes they do have the Mopar Performance PCM out for the 2000's. Mine is
currently on back order and I hope to have it by early July. It's good for
28 HP. I've got a pretty good connection that sold me one for just under
$300. I think they are around $450 at a dealer.

As far as room for headers there is plenty. I'm looking into putting them
on after I do a suspension upgrade. I think I may go with the JBA's. A
friend has them on his Dak R/T and got a 25 RWHP increase in his dyno
numbers.

If you want to see what a R/T Durango in flame red will look like check out
my website listed below. I still need to develop my engine pics showing my
Quick-D intake, etc... Also there is a link to the DOC (Durango Owners
Club) on my website that has a forum where you can talk to Durango
owners...great place to gather information...similar to the DML!

How much is the dealer charging you to do the skunk stripes?

Chuck, why did Roush change the tires to Toyo versus BF Goodrich?
