    Production Tonale!!!

    Alfa most certainly does not sell as intended and they are most certainly made to compete against BMW, this has been stated countless times and the Giula is a direct competitor to the 3 series in all forms, as is the Stelvio to the X5 in all forms and neither has sold as well as anticipated...

    Production Tonale!!!

    No idea how to get picked but would be cool to go to one. A guy posted about going to a charger one years ago for what ended up being the 2011 car and he said they had 4-5 designs there and one was a straight up 4 door 69 charger looking one that he said didnt look good. As for the tonale, a...

    Rebel TRX..

    My guess is the full 707 or 717. Ford knows about this truck and is building a super raptor to compete against it, so there will be a HP war between them.

    FCA reports Q3 2019 U.S. Sales

    I've noticed all the 300S airport rentals have been replaced by Chargers. GT AWD's, GT's and whatever the V6 one is called that looks exactly like a scat pack. Lots of durangos too including R/T's and they're hitting the dealer lots en mass

    Dodge’s engineer kinda confirms an 8-second car is in the work

    Timing is right but I don't know why the head of Dodge (at the time) would be involved in an aftermarket deal like that.

    Fiat can't wait forever for Renault

    I dont know why they'd have to invest "billions upon billions" into what most likely will end up being electric motors attached to the wheels and a skateboard chassis filled with batteries. The autonomous tech will probably come from suppliers and it'll be like that across the board. I don't...

    Fiat can't wait forever for Renault

    If FCA truly can't make it on their own, and they can't find a partner then I wonder what their plan is?

    Fiat 500 axed in North America

    Nobody said they needed cheap volume vehicles but two old muscle cars (already had them, not buying the same car again and others share the same thoughts) and one SUV with a shady future makes for a brand in trouble whether you want to admit that or not. As a self proclaimed performance brand...

    Fiat 500 axed in North America

    Cutting AWD and the V6 from the journey is a head scratcher. My WAG is that they can offer deep discounts on the 4cyl FWD while not affecting profit as much as they would on the V6 AWD ones. Or its a CAFE thing, who knows. Either way Dodge is in pretty dire straights as a brand right now.

    FCA beats Ford in August?

    Yes but up 27% while just about everyone else was down (and those numbers are wrong) https://www.desrosiers.ca/sales

    FCA beats Ford in August?

    Wouldn't surprise me, for the past few years Ford treated their bread and butter vehicles like red headed step children compared to their electric stuff that nobody wanted or their whole "we want to be a mobility company" jargon. Serves them right

    Popular Color Ends Production This Month On Challenger, Charger, and 300:

    Audi had been using it for years, possibly a decade or more before Dodge came out with it. Toyota I believe only used it for one year on their TRD Pro models (tundra, tacoma, 4runner). Each year they offer one "crazy" color and for 17 or 18 it was that grey. They've used orange, a smurf blue...

    Fiat 500 axed in North America

    True, would make far better sense to offer an electric CUV or pickup instead. There is some white space available for an electric small truck about the size of an 80's dakota

    Fiat 500 axed in North America

    They made no mention of its replacement in the press release and could you imagine FCA asking NA dealers to invest more money in a Fiat electric car support program? Tech training, tools, chargers etc. How many 500e's did they sell here?

    Fiat 500 axed in North America

    Putting here for the discussion on what people think will take its assembly spot. Right now Toluca makes the Compass, Journey and 500. With the 500 gone and the journey not far behind what do you think they'll put in there? Back to Fiat, I read a pretty compelling theory that FCA wanted to...

    What is SRT working on...?

    You do have a point, (but how big is the exhaust on the 2.0T in comparison) I am still extremely skeptical. It has missed the ram and the new wrangler (naturally assuming an NA version will replace the 3.6L in RWD applications and what a way to re-intro an I6 than in the new wrangler!), so an...

    What is SRT working on...?

    Probably just the 2.0L turbo. If they put it in the 4300lb wrangler unlimited, its going in the new GC.

    What is SRT working on...?

    IMO unless that debuts in the new grand cherokee (it already missed the 2019 Ram) its just a next gen Alfa Romeo / Maserati engine

    What is SRT working on...?

    Personally I don't think anything is coming from SRT at the moment unless its one of the new Jeeps. What I posted was wishful thinking at best
