Lingster, if you want something different than the norm, go with the AQ, of the 900+ members of the DOC, only two of us have the AQ! I love it, but others do not, personal choice. The PB is also very nice. Mine is a 2K 4.7L SLT+ with all of the factory goodies except block heater and running boards (the boards I will be adding soon). The two tone paint sounds interesting, again personal choice. My understanding of the internet buying services is that they negotiate and then delivery is at a local dealer. Mopar has many of the aftermarket goodies (cat back etc) and as you probably have figured out, Arnold (MOPAR) is the man if you plan on installing yourself. The hood looks cool, not for me, but cool. From what others have said, you may want to take off the tires and wheels when you get it and go with other things for the total custom look, you can then sell the factory takeoffs in the DOC classifieds. Check out the Durango web ring for pics of custom paint and mods. Hope this has helped in some small way. Enjoy your search and ultimately your new D. GO AQUA, the few, the proud, the unique!
