how do you guys pass anyone in your trucks. i love my truck but my 4th and 5th gears just have no get up and go. is there anything i can do to change this? and i don't want to change the gears either. i already have the throttle body and an airaid intake. i'm also thinking about getting a new exhaust. what is a good choice? i have a 2000 dakota 5 speed with the 3.9 liter v6 in it.

4th works if we're over 80mph, but just drop it to 3rd...and I used the shoulder a few times to pass, got caught once, good thing my sister is a lawyer 0 points, but if I added them up it was 14 and maryland only allows 12.

The 3.9L (auto) I had, had no problems passing! what kind of speeds are we talking about? is your truck a CC? mine was a RC with the 3:55 rear end, and it was great....
