    Stellantis Mexico Continues To Post Record Sales

    They don’t need the Hornet. The have the Ram 700. Yup, totally different vehicle, but I bet there is more demand. Ram USA could use smaller Ram (the Rampage and/or this) sooner rather than later. Did I read the new Journey has been discontinued already? Thought it was doing well south of the...

    Chief Propulsion Engineer Talks Powertrain On Electric Rams

    Bill, could not agree with you anymore!!! You are 100% correct. I believe based on Tesla’s latest sales quarter and where other brands stand on EV’s, it seems EV sales have peaked and either will stay as they are or crash? I too have talked to some that have EV’s and want out. Their...

    Hornet Tops The Top-10 Slowest-Selling Vehicles List Again

    Yes I stand corrected regarding the first batch of hornets. The first batch were gas and they were hard to get. The second batch, which is currently on the market are hybrids. That was my error when I typed up my comments. Thank you for making the correction I do appreciate it. I do have to...

    Hornet Tops The Top-10 Slowest-Selling Vehicles List Again

    I see to many negatives with the Hornet, despite it being a pretty decent vehicle. I know not everyone here will agree but this is what I see. 1) The many issues out of the gate it had and Dodge dealers were not prepared for it. The added bad press was not helpful at all. 2) It was promoted...

    A Majority Don’t Consider The Charger Daytona, A Muscle Car!

    I am good with calling the Chargers with the ICE H/P Hurricane I6 a muscle car. Not the EV’s. So the I6 is not a Hemi! Being in my late fifties when the Hemi’s of the 60’s ended and we were running Chargers, Cuda’s and other Mopars with 440’s, 400’s, they were Muscle cars!!! Don’t need a Hemi...

    Dodge Launches “Inner Child Intervention” Campaign For Hornet R/T PHEV

    Funny how the allocation goes. The dealer here in Connecticut where I bought my Durango in December had 10 of them. Said no one was buying them. My 26 yr old daughter who was looking to trade in her Chrysler 200, was looking at them while we were there, but they were well out of her price...

    Stellantis Post It’s Sales Numbers For The U.S. In Q1 2024!

    OK so we have a 300 day supply of chargers and challengers. What I don’t understand is that 300 day supply all high performance R/T models? So they are telling us that with that 300 day supply of challengers and chargers sitting on these Dodge lots none of them are SXT’s or GT‘s? If there are...

    Stellantis Post It’s Sales Numbers For The U.S. In Q1 2024!

    Just saw this on Yahoo Finance, 4/4….. Interesting, seems somebody gets it! DETROIT (AP) — With U.S. electric vehicle sales starting to slow, Ford Motor Co. says it will delay rolling out new electric pickup trucks and a new large electric SUV as it adds gas-electric hybrids to its model...

    Stellantis Post It’s Sales Numbers For The U.S. In Q1 2024!

    UGH! My stomach is turning. Not sure what has me more sick, the big decline in the Dodge brand as a whole, or the big decrease in Ram pick ups and the real big dip in the Pro Master! Hopefully the EV Pro Master will see in big increase with its Amazon contract!!!

    A Majority Of Dodge Charger Fans Will Opt For Hurricane Over EV

    This is pretty close to what the nation wants over all ICE vs EV. Read somewhere a while back it was around 91% did not want EV’s. This seems pretty close.

    Could Dodge Bring Back The Charger Pursuit In 2025?

    We did for some vehicles. We ran Jazz Blue Chargers, with white roofs and all 4 doors white (LAPD style but blue instead of black). We had our local Chrysler/Dodge dealership did the white paint job lower than the wrap cost. Also some surrounding towns wrapped the doors and when the guys went...

    Could Dodge Bring Back The Charger Pursuit In 2025?

    As the former Fleet Director of my former PD (I retired after 30 years as a Police Officer), I switched my PD over to the Chargers in 2013. My Chief really wanted to stay with Ford and had me order a few Explorers. The guys loved the Chargers over the Explores, and he gave in after that. We...

    Challenger Nameplate Not Making A Return To Dodge Lineup

    My take on the future for our old Chrysler brands…. CHRYSLER. Will only have a mini van. No Sedan, crossover or SUV DODGE. 2 Chargers, coupe and sedan. Hornet will not sell and be gone and new Durango will be a Ram Ram will have its full size P/U, and we will see the midsize return. The...

    550 HP 2025 Dodge Charger SIX PACK H/O Coupe Coming

    OK did I miss something? Not being an EV person I’m pretty impressed by the Six Pack seems like it will be a good engine and fast one at that. One thing I did not read between this article in the one that was before it introducing the EV was there was no mention of a hybrid. If memory serves me...
