The new body grows on you after a while.. Just give it a chance. My
concern is more that every time the redo the Dak it gets bigger. The
current Dak is about as large as full size trucks from 20 years ago.

And, Yes, I too would wish they'd do a 6.1L Dakota; but I expect at LEAST
the 5.7L to be called an R/T. R/T should be more unique than graphic. If
they came with a 5.7L as standard with a 6.1L optional.... Then I think I
could be moving some Dakotas. I'd also end up dealing with people wanting
a 6.1L with tow pacakages, and other odd combinations.

Like the guys that have called things like the towing for the SRT-10, or
fuel mileage for the Dodge POWER WAGON.
