About LinkBacksGeez, seems like Dodge will slap an R/t badge on anything now, whether it deserves the moniker or not. First there was the Caliber R/T which in reality was slower than the SXT version, and now, Ta-da! A Journey R/T with a *gasp* 0-60 mph time of 8.3 secs! Geez my SXT Magnum will leave this lump looking at my tail lights in the distance.
Used to be R/T meant performance.....

My wife was looking at a Journey R/T for a while. Your right it doesnt have any performance at all, but it did have a good option package. Heck I just through an R/T badge on my Mag.

At least the Nitro R/T has a 4.0L (stroker I assume) instead of the 3.7L, on top of a nice options package.
