Someone should check the Mopar after market parts to see if the 16" rims are
optional for purchase.

To my knowledge the 16" rims only come on the 2001's.

Thanks to everyone who responded - helping w/ my decisions on what options
to get. I'll be switching to the digest version after today; plan to do
some test driving this aft. or tomorrow, so any last words? I may go w/ a
leftover '00 to get the rebate, since there seem to be only minor
differences in the '01. It has extras I could do w/o, but I figure for the
same $$ or even less, I get more truck, only 1 model year older. It has the
T&H group - ever heard of this coming w/ 16" rims? I thought they were
15x8, but the dealer says 16x8 alum w/ P265 65 R16 tires? What differences
does this have over the 15x7, like driving in snow (2wd), mileage, handling,
etc? Also, am I going to notice the stabilizer bars if I'm usually not
hauling a lot of weight, or taking corners fast? Just wondering if the T&H
option is something I don't really need.
Hey, thanks in advance, and one last thing - seeing how the incentives
program ends in a week, anyone guess what Dodge or a dealer will do to move
the last remaining leftovers after that?
Mike
