Not sure about the Dak but motor trend says the Hemi Ram will do 0-60 in 6.8 seconds and covers the quarter in 15.1/89.1
The old 5.9 does not have the horses or the torque of the Hemi but without the Dak numbers or real line ups I'm not sure.

I got her on March 21, 2004. The day BEFORE the R/B was to go on sale. I did a 3/4 drop, Painted the mirrors, handles and some interior bits, removed the badges, tinted the windows and added KMC 22's to smooth it all out. |

the dak is lighter than the ram i think. but the 5.9 does not have as much power as the hemi.

I owned two Dakota R/T Club Cab's and Stock for Stock the Rumble Bee is quicker. Now there are a lot of R/T's out there that are far from stock.
