Default RE: R/T or SRT?

Okay now I know what your getting at. Back in the 70s the SE package was a luxury package. Now the SE package is the base level badge. Ironically the R/T has become the luxury trim on some models but still retains its performance heritage except they are making the SRT line take the place of the top of performance. I'm used to the current assoication that the SE has as the base model on current Dodge cars such as the Charger, Magnum, Caliber, ect.

The SE package was the special edition back then by offering special options. I wouldn't hold my breathe over it. The SE currently has an association with being the base model and people will think it is the base model because they have forgotten that the SE package used to be a special package.
