Well I drove the Dakota today. Very nice. Nobody has a V8
5-Speed. Sands Brothers in Quakertown PA was the only dealer that
had a 5-speed period. I took a 2WD regular cab out with the V6
and the 5-speed. I did not beat on it, but the 6 had adequate
power. The ride was nice and I liked the quiet cab.
The salesman then talked me into taking a 4WD V8 5-Speed ram out.
I did want to feel the clutch on the V8 so I could be sure my wife
would have no problem. The Dodge clutch is as light or lighter
than my Chevy S-10. My wife will have no problem with the clutch
:-) I will love the 318 V8 :-)
I spent most of the ride explaining that I did want to order the
truck since I wanted just what said I wanted and that was not
sitting on the lot. He consented to work up a price, so I left
him with my list of options and accessories. We will see what
happens.
Does anyone know a dealer in south east Pennsylvania that will
order a truck for a reasonable price?
Ride Safe,
