Welcome Lance,
Skid plates? Are you opting for a 4X4? Covers are available now. Snug Top
makes a locking cover called a SnugLid, ~$850 for all the options. Line-X
for the bedliner, ~$350. Extender is available through Dodge. You may want
to try to bargain that in. After the rest of the haggling, tell them to
throw in an Extender and you'll close the deal. Price of the Extender is
~$200. One thing about the Dodge Extender, the attachment of the brackets
is done using the rear tie-down bolts so no drilling is necessary. Before
you go to just any old dealer, first try http://www.autobytel.com Most of
these dealers work on invoice price. I wouldn't pay much more than ~$100
over invoice, even with a special order. You live in Hotsville so make sure
you get the Heavy Duty Cooling Package. This is a must for your type of
weather. Good luck in the buying process.
HTH,
Ron

Subject: DML: Hello
Hi, I just found this Mailing list and as I'm in the market for a new
Dakota, I thought it best that I sign up.
My name is Lance Robertson and my target vehicle is a 2001 Dakota Quad
Cab. The options list is 4.7L V8, Auto transmission, Anti-Spin Diff, Skid
plates, Sports Plus, Trailer Tow, Both convenience groups, 4 wheel ABS,
3.92 Axle ratio, 6"X9" Power Fold mirrors, High back bucket seats, power
driver seat, and Leather wrapped steering wheel.
I'm going to be adding some other items such as a locking cover for the
bed when it becomes available (anyone know when or where I can find out?)
sprayed bed liner, and cargo extender. Color will be Bright Silver with
Dark Slate interior.
I live in Mesa, AZ and hope to be ordering my Dak in a week or so as soon
as I can find out about some pricing from my local dealers.
Thanks
