Are they ever gonna put a hemi in the Dakota?

A Dodge salesman once told me they were considering it?



But hey it was a salesman.


That's not what I've heard, it's just a matter of time...

BDK

With todays fuel prices? Not very likely at all.

Do not bet the farm on it. Detriot is going to be scrambling to boost MPG to help SUV sales, not lower it with todays and tomorrows fuel prices and looming CO2 emission restriction on the horizon. This all equals smaller no bigger engines and reduced vehical weight when possible.

Unless it is the Hemi-C with MDS cylindar deactivation.

That hemi might find it's way into Dakota, but I'd bet on seeing a diesel first.
