I have read several of this particular threads posts and have the impression 
that a few people are not truly familiar with what term RICE means.  It has 
NOTHING to do with manufacture of the vehicle.  Just because a car is an 
import does not make it RICE.  Yes, that means that even Dakotas could be 
considered RICE.
Rice in general is someone who takes a car/truck and "dresses" it up to look 
like something that it is not, mainly fast.  For example in Dakota terms: If 
I put R/T stickers on my V6 that would be considered rice.
Check out these sites.  They give a much more in depth definition of RICE.
