The only time I've ever used my tach was when I had a
stick shift. With the auto-trans, it wouldn't bother
me a bit to not have one. The lack of temp gauges does
worry me though. I don't even see a gauge for the
battery! The interior looks "clean", but sparse.
Everything is blocky too. (ick)
I was driving in to work this morning, and came up on
a new Ram. I really like the look of the back end. But
I still like the front of my Dak better than the Rams.
What is up with the new durangos getting a Hemi, but
the Daks won't even get that option!? That just seems
stoopid to me.
