Has anyone seen this before.  I just stumbled upon it on IGN they had some cool looking pictures of it.  http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://carsmedia.ign.com/cars/image/article/675/675414/mitsubishi-street-raider-concept-20051213042725897.jpg&imgrefurl=http://cars.ign.com/articles/675/675414p1.html&h=305&w=460&sz=122&hl=en&start=5&tbnid=1hF47Hg8NrnheM:&tbnh=85&tbnw=128&prev=/images%3Fq%3DDakota%2Bconcept%26gbv%3D2%26hl%3Den

Why can't Dodge make something like this for our trucks. The Dakotas are completely neglected in favor of the Ram and it isn't right because the Dakota has been around since 87 and obviously has its group of devout supporters.  We need something cool like this available to us.  We also need the Hemi in our trucks even more now that the 2008s are fatter than ever weighing in over 4200lbs.  Upping the horsepower on the 4.7 and making the truck a bunch heavier doesn't seem to make a whole lot of sense to me. I think it would be in Chrysler/Dodges best interest right now to give their consumers what they want, they should be asking for feedback from owners.

I would seriously love to see an SRT-8 Dakota, or for Dodge to make the 5.7 an optional engine.

Wow I sure do wish that they would do the same for the Dakota.  This is the first truck that I have ever owned that aftermarket parts are hard to come by.  I like the truck just wish there were some more options for us.  Anyway back to the Mitsubishi Street DAMN thats a nice truck.

I wish they would make a body kit for our trucks I know the 2nd Gens have those Cervinis Sniper Kits that look pretty sweet.  Hopefully in the near future...

Shibby, make your IMG all lower case img so we can see the truck

The img code is all lower case, this picture is temporary I am going to go and take new ones at higher resolution.  I think my girlfriend might have her digital camera taking lower res pictures so she can fit more on one card.  Drive me nuts too. I'll probably ask Jimbo or Devil to make me a sig if they feel like it since I have no access to photoshop myself. Sucks because I took classes in Photoshop so I am pretty well versed in it.

I really like it because the white sticks out against the red paint.  I was going to get black stripes but in looking at Turbo-Tbird's stripes I don't like the fact that it is harder to make out what the logo is (no offense turbo-t, your truck is sick man!)
