Howdy all,
First time poster here.

I've been saving my pennies in hopes of getting a used 2003 HO 6 speed this year, even pre-owned they're big bucks.

A friend of mine just orered a 2004 and cancelled his order after he heard something about paint problems on the new body style, anyone heard much on this?

He's in the autobody business so he may have some inside info from one of the local dealers.

Thanks, great site!

So I guess no one else has heard of any paint problems then¿

Lots of us with 03s have experienced soft paint which scratches and chips very easily. I believe Dodge even put holds on many trucks that had already left the factory because the paint was bad. Supposedly that has been fixed. I love the color of my truck but the paint absolutely sucks!!!!!
I was washing it the other day and the hose rubbed on the side of the bed a little while I was standing in the bed washing the top, and now that side of my truck is scratched really, really badly!
