WOW I just test drove a RT 6 speed. Awesome car fast. I ask the salesman if he could get the key so I could hear the exhaust system. Because its different from the automatics, I let the engine warm up, then revved it up a few times. The salesman went back inside to get his jacket. He came back out and said he got permission from the GM to take it out. Went down the street made a right turn then another right. Its a long block behind the dealership 0-60 in a few seconds in 25 mph zone. I still have the Gotta get me 1 of these soon.

I would like to see some 1/4 mile times of the R/T six speed vs. the auto. I own an auto, and have driven the 6 speed also. It had 400 miles on it, turned off the ESP and drove it hard. Didn't think the manual was faster, just more fun in the street. BTW, this one had 20's and the 3.92 Heres' a pic of the two in question. The black one is mine.

Well, being that he says it's the silver one, wouldn't that be the transformer there on the pole? That is the closest thing I see to silver. I wonder what year that model is suppose to be? Maybe that's what it will look like when one of these other companies buy out Chysler.

I wish they would have saved their money, and mine, on that hill assist. That might be something for new drivers, or ones who have trouble either on hills or maybe a physical issue, but fo us old timers, I'm use to no hill assist and would be happy getting rid of that extra cost.

I agree, HSA is a waste. I was just hoping there was a way to disable it for when I do end up with a Chal R/T 6 spd. Too much reliance on the computer to "drive" the car for us. Maybe a handheld tuner can disable the feature if it can't be turned off as delivered from Dodge. I just don't trust that it will turn off soon enough at the 'strip.

Can anyone chime in as to if HSA can be disabled easily?

I believe it can be disabled in the EVIC.
