Recenty STLA floated a $2 Billion$ bond sale which won't go very far. GM spent something like $550 million on a new V-8 engine to production . So $10 Billion would make a big splash !

My previous two Challengers. When the word came down from the Big House the Hemi was going away I bought my present Scat Pack.

Sir, where do you get your weight stats ? I find it hard to believe that the IRON block V-8 Hemi is only 141 lb heavier that the Hurricane I-6 ? Are you factoring in the entire drive line ? When was the last time you made a 1/4 mile pass ? Last time I did 12.5 @110 mph @ Miland Dragway and...

My trusted source states the weight of the EV Charger at 5835 ! Take out the 1000 lb battery leaves 4835 add iron block Hemi, heavy 8 speed trans and running gear. My guess put new weight at 5500 + or - lb ? The Challanger is a MUSCLE car not a Grand Touring Cruiser ! I'm on my THIRD...

When I installed 315x35x20 rear tires on my Scat Pack I had rubbing issues from the side wall. So in went a pair of 5mm = .200" spacers that cured that issue ! But most if not all spacers are alumn. so make sure to paint them 100% to prevent galvanic corrosion. After 5k miles no issues.

Speaking of the 5.7 Hemi, I knew a few fellows who added long tube headers and a tune. They picked up 30+ HP ! I'm sure that the shorty headers that are on the 392 would add much needed breathing to the 5.7 ! But like I stated, getting that over weight Charger to perform is an uphill battle...

Regarding this way over weight and over sized at vehicle 5835 lb in EV trim remember it's built on a STLA truck platform to handle the 1000 lb battery weight. Now take out that battery and add a iron block Hemi, trans, diff and rear suspension, what will the new weight be ? I'm guessing...

With all the stories out there about these failures and you went for one ? REALLY !

Hmmmm ? Yes ? But new decals and exterior colors for 2026 ! How low the mighty has fallen ! I gotta wonder, is STLA purposely driving it's USA sales into the ground ? Or is this a result of poor leadership enabled by the board of directors ? The top execs are paid big money to make the right...

Really ?

Ram Dakota, 4 years over due ! Mini PU truck and SUV also over due not some warmed over FIAT disgrace ! The Asians listen to what BUYERS want, not manufactures telling us what they think we want. Asians make what buyers want.

" What are we going to due for 2026 models when all we have is warmed over stale old models ?" " Not to worry we have new decals on the way as I speak " ! " Any more questions ?" "Yes what do we have for you know, entry level vehicles ?" " Next question please !"

What else are they building at that plant ?

Even with an auto trans and 315x35x20 tires with a tread wear of 300 getting traction in a hard pull in my Scat Pack is challenging. Even hard sifts into second or third will break loose my tires and at times cause the rear of the car to want to change lanes. With a manual, hole shots and up...
