Subject: RE: DML: R/T difference
Just my 2 cents worth. I traded my 4.7 CC Dak for an R/T CC Dak a couple of
weeks ago. It was a dealer demo with 1000 miles on it. Both were stock
except for a drop-in K&N air filter. It feels to me the R/T is much
quicker. Maybe my 4.7 was a lemon. Don't get me wrong the 4.7 was QUICK.
But my R/T is quicker feeling. I did not take either to a track so it is
just my "feeling". Just talking about it makes me want to go out for
another drive. I think I'm going to do that in just a few minutes.

Seeing that I am new to all of this, is it true to what I hear? I
understand that if you buy a 4.7 sport with a 5 spd, it is as fast as an R/T
both being stock of course. Is this true?! Im going to need a new truck to
pull my race dakota when Its done, I guess the R/T isnt the one to buy is
it!? Considering towing being an issue an all not to mention the fun in
beating an R/T with a truck that cost a lot less!
