The new R/T's need the 5.7 hemi in them. If the RC/SB 5000lb ram can run 15.1-14.7 with the hemi stock, the 4000lb Dak R/T would be a low 14 or high 13 second truck stock. Or just stuff a 6.1L in them and have a 12 second truck out of the box.

Too bad they never came with a stick 
Yea, I saw one of those new "r/t"s the other day, I thought the guy had some vinyls made... fugly trucks! I'd love to have an old one someday, maybe a stroked 360 with a single turbo with a T56 behind it... mmmm

No Hemi in the new R/T's? That sucks!!
I had a 97 reg cab Dakota w/ the 318 and a 5-speed. I'd wear out the R/T all day long with that truck. I just wished it had the looks of the R/T when i still owned it. Truck was alot of fun to drive.
To the Lightning killer comment.... That truck would kill alot more than just Lightnings....unless the L had a turbo also

There'll always be someone faster, it all depends on how much you're willing to kill your wallet 
either truck would be a blast to own. What 5 speed came behind the 318s?

i like the R/Ts, but they dont run very good. when they came out they were something to talk about.
i raced a guy with a R/T, had quite a bit done to it, in my stock TBSS. would have been a good race had he been able to get traction. but my SS had unconsensual sexual relations with it.
i liked the truck though, from about a 25 punch he could get it sideways.
