Mark,
If it were me, I'd keep the current truck.  If you trade you will be still
be driving a stock truck.   Your going to take an easy $2-3K slap for the
trade.  You can purchase a lot of performance for that money.  Just my
thoughts.

Subject: DML: Might buy a 99 R/T?

Tell me if I,m crazy or not. I have really been thinking about replacing my
99' 5.2L 5-speed Sport with an R/T. Tell me what you think I should pay for
it. I want to order it like my 94', stripped to the bone, a go fast toy.
 
99 Dakota R/T
5.9L Auto
Radio Delete
No Air
3.92 SG
Replace the P255/55VR17's with P285/40ZR17's
Pull out the factory buckets, replace with lighter racing seats.
Bumper delete, roll pan instead.
 
Do you think it will go faster than the average "loaded" R/T? Do you think
that I should just try to lighten my Sport? How do I lighten it? I just want
to go faster, the shipping weight on my Sport was 3755 lbs. I'm still
wondering if I should buy it because I have only had my Sport for 4 mos. Any
comments, suggestions, or insults are welcome.
