They should be concerned. They should focus their efforts and concerns on the Canadian government to “get real” and make the trade deal. Our President is winning at every level, cutting deals that benefit Americans, no recession, no inflation and bringing trillions in investments to America and...

As fate would have it my serious drag racing days and Bullet Bobs days crossed paths a few times at races. I ran a ‘69 Barracuda and frankly I replicated these Hemi cars, following religiously the factory construction blueprints, and eyeballing and asking advice on building these A body drag...

No surprise here. Although the cars manufactured here are good products, they are all dated and owners coming out of earlier models want something new. Rode around in someone’s Stelvio last week and looking around the interior, it just felt old. Simple reason, just like other products from...

There can be many engine sounds that are exciting, project performance and please the listener, even dirt bikes which this Six Pack sounds nothing like to my ears. I have a V-6 Crossfire that differs a lot from my Hemi Challenger but it certainly sounds good and makes me smile. I like this Six...

As a Chrysler Crossfire roadster owner I know something important. I was driving my Crossfire around my area on Long Island yesterday, top down, beautiful weather, heading to Louie’s restaurant in Port Washington and I turned to my wife and said ………. “ buying this car was one of the best...

I am truly captivated by this Six Pack Charger. It’s not a Hemi Challenger for sure, but it IS a gorgeous performance coupe that is AWD with lots of power to please most enthusiasts. If your a Hemi Challenger owner, like me, in truth you must admit that these cars can be a bit of a challenge in...

Is that a Hemi in that car, of course it is, just like in every funny car out there. Time to get a new Charger coupe body on these monsters. I think , however, that these cars have lost interest as these bodies evolve further and further away from anything looking stock to some spec race car...

Let the party begin! Lots of work to be done, lots of ground to make up, lots of bad press to negate, but none-the-less, it’s party time in Mopar town again. You bring the drinks, I’ll bring the chips, Tim can bring the fast stuff.

I’ve had a sentimental love affair with Argentina since I studied about this amazing country in sixth grade Geography class. Gauchos, the Juan and Evita era and beautiful Buenos Aires., the Paris of South America. Things got worse when my son visited Argentina two years ago and he too fell in...

He got my vote. Being an Italian was a positive for me. So far so good.

Briefly, all these necessary products for Jeep, Dodge, Chrysler and Ram had better find space and resources to be built in America. That must include plant expansions and flexible manufacturing methods in current factories. I see Canada as part of a possible solution, if and when the Canadian...

It’s not the fuel and it’s not the engineering technology created, it’s the practicality, lack of infrastructure and the overwhelmingly convenient and availability of gas powered vehicle most folks want. Indeed Archer Air would go on my “Alice in Wonderland” list of elites dreams gone amuck...

Once again the green dreamers contingent, with their heads in the clouds, ignore reality and with a swipe of their magic wand, engage in an effort that is impractical and costly. More money down a rabbit hole that could have been used to design and build a next generation fire breathing Hemi...

My little league coach gave me good advice as a kid, keep swinging even if you miss. I kept swinging until a couple of games later I hit an amazing blast that drove in a run and put me on second base to cheers. Dodge, keep swinging. Could this strike out with the current Hornet be good fortune ...

Owned a Chrysler Sebring coupe, a joint Chrysler/Mitsubishi venture Diamond Star product that was a very popular and capable car that can serve as a guide for the suggested future. The Sebring and Dodge Avenger coupes were based off a stretched Eclipse/Talon platform and could be considered a...
