I think it's great that they do this.
I also think you should be able to get the powertrains in lesser equiped
models.
I'm not so crazy about 20" wheels.

I would like to see a quad cab version like they did with the Ram.

That thing got a Hemi?
Umm yea 6.1 liters and 425 HP
Sweet!

Anyone else think Chrysler's going too far w/ the SRT stuff? Do we
really need an SRT edition of *every* vehicle?
