Yep...you are right. There is no 4.7 HO for the next Dakota. It will
remain as the upper Ram models and crossed over to the Jeep line.

where did you get 4.7HO from? i haven't heard a single thing about them
putting the HO on the daks. it doesn't seem likely.
i would imagine the HO would go in the Ram to move that big thing, but not a
smaller, lighter dak.

There should be a 5.7 to replace the 5.9. The engine lineup is 3.7 Hemi, 4.7 HO, and the 5.7 Hemi. The weight should be 250-350lbs lighter than the current RC model.
If you go to the RAM or DAKOTA ordering page, they are trying to give the last incentive to get rid of the remaining supply of engines.

from what we've been hearing its coming out in Jan. 2004 as a 2005 model. it will be smaller than the current Gen III, and will weigh less.
there may be a hemi, there may not... we shall wait and see...

Does anyone have reliable knowledge of if 2004 will be Gen IV dakotas?
I'm starting to get the new dak itch again. And this time I'm going to do it right, 4.7L 5-speed RC, ordered to my spec. I'd prefer to wait one more year, but I don't want to get stuck with a Gen IV which I guarantee will weigh more and have less "options" than the current model.
