The Durango Hemi 5-spd trans is not from Mercedes. It's their own. I don't like the gear ratios, but the engine power is great.

I highly recommend something with 6-spd trans. The Chrysler 5-spd is really a 4-spd with extra gear between a 4-spd 3-4. First gear is far taller than current 6-spds. 2007 Expy got the 6-spd 5.4L.
