If you're looking for an R/T I believe you're limited in your choices. They
come with 5.9 liter engine and 3.92 differential. You have your choice of
CC or RC and colors. Automatic only with the 5.9. If you want to have more
choices perhaps SLT or Sport packages might be the way to go. Invoice + 2%
is rather hefty to me. I paid invoice +100. Others have paid less. Before
you buy check the dealers that use http://www.autobytel.com in your area.
You can do that by going to the URL and registering.

Thanks! I have tried that site before but with limited success; the
connection keeps getting severed... must be because I am in Hawaii!
Anyway, are there optional gear ratios for the R/T? Looking for best all
around street/ mild strip. Or even manual trannies offered...
Finally, are there any bed length/ HP/ Tq/ or performance differences in the
RC R/T and CC R/T? Sorry for all the questions... I plan on heading to the
dealer on the weekend and ordering one, for dealer invoice + 2%
thanks again,
phil giusto
