Isn't the Quad Cab a special model??? nevermind who wants the R/T, I
would rather have a Dakota Quad Cab SRT-8 from the new PVO group.

No! NO R/T Quad Cab! It would be the same as calling a Chevy Camaro
Stationwagon "a sports car" no no... R/T badges should be reserved for
special
models. Otherwise the R/T badge loses its significance and prestige.
Better
braking is a good idea however.

As I have preached before, RESSURECT THE 8 FOOT BED! Plus I think a
standard
engine hour meter would be a good guage to have.

I would also like to see the maroon-red interior color selection
brought back!
