Default New DD: Project DurRTay-D

Picked up a new DD last night. Missed out on a used 14 w/ 40k miles on Tuesday by 15 minutes which I was bummed about, but I think it worked out for the better. Ended up finding this one yesterday for just a little more money, but its a 2015 w/ 4800 miles. So basically brand new, just some other poor bastard took the new car initial depreciation hit. Here's a basic run down of it.

2015 Durango RT
- 5.7 Hemi V8
- 8spd Auto
- 4800 miles
- Black exterior with 20" polished\black rims
- Black leather interior w/ rear captain seats
- Tow package (7500lbs rating)
- Pretty much decked out, but a couple things I know it doesn't have are sunroof or rear DVD system
- Lifetime Power train warranty
- 5yr 75000 Bumper to Bumper warranty
- 5yr body warranty (unlimited PDR, damaged wheel replacement, things like that)


They also tried to sell me on a full front 3M clear bra ($800) and some Auto Armor interior\exterior protection package ($900) but I said I'd think about it. Any good input on those from people that might have experience with it?

Plan is for it just be my sweet dad mobile, and have towing duty for taking the SC to the track. I do have a few mods in mind, but in no rush to do them.
- Add black running boards/bars
- Add sunroof
- Intake
- Exhaust
- Possibly a PnP Diablo tune if I can find a way to have it not screw up my warranty

Love it so far. The racetrack tails and LED front DRL's are pretty sweet. The rumble of the V8 sounds ****ing boss. I was going to get the V6 previously but once I test drove an RT I was hooked. It feels quick and torquey for its size, but not really all that fast in the grand scheme of things.

On to some pics!
