Since I purchased my Marauder new in the spring of 2003, and have all the pre-decontented bits, including the traction control switch, I thought I had a 300A. I just found my window sticker which reads- 300B. I am now confused as to the differance. The bad boy has just under 15,000 miles on it.

Deck spoiler and CD Changer were both add-ons. Neither was included in the base price.

Mine didn't come with heated seats, but if needed, I'll just eat some spicy food :food: before driving & let nature takes its course.:hide: Also, its not bad of a leather conditioner, if the "product" output is lighter than an aerosol spray. :eek: :flamer: :rolleyes:

I ordered right away an extra Marauder wheel and tire -to be my spare, so I do not remember which one it came with. It takes alot of room in the trunk, but it sure does look nice! I also have the map pockets, fuel door release, full overhead consol, and dash clock.

The 300b I'm parting has heated seats, no clock, no map pockets, traction control and a manual fuel door, but has a long overhead console, and a hood light. It's a April 2003 build so it seems it was the start of the decontenting.

There really a difference in mid year production?

Thanks guys for the info. I am considering selling it, which is the main reason I wanted to know.

I'm just wondering, if there is decontenting of other options, maybe there was a move to better heads during mid-year.
Would be cool to find out.

The mid year changes had more to do with cost cutting. I don't believe there were any engine changes.

All 2003's should have the long roof console. They were cut down for sunroofs and then shortened in 2004 to accommodate the sunroof.
