    More Details Emerge On The South American Ram Dakota

    1.) I didn't know we could separate quotes in the same response!!!! That's cool! Definitely agree on alot of these points. Simply put, my response to the article was simply that Stellantis North America needs to bring affordable performance to the general public and stop wasting so much money...

    More Details Emerge On The South American Ram Dakota

    It's truly hard for me to not be a bit upset and almost a little angry When I look at the situation of Stellantis here in North America and watch them fumble play after play after play. All of this big news about the new Durango coming out with no pentastar engine and going all Hemi, yet it...

    SPOTTED: 2026 Dodge Charger Scat Pack SIXPACK Four-Door

    I have to say I agree with Bill Burke and the statement of the STLA Large platform being a solid choice for Stellantis going forward. While I mentioned above about a GT car having a hemi. Realistically, a bare basic 420hp Hurricane RWD car makes more sense as an entry-level GT car than the 5.7L...

    SPOTTED: 2026 Dodge Charger Scat Pack SIXPACK Four-Door

    I have my minor gripes about it, mostly to do with small styling details that I'm sure the aftermarket will address, but the biggest thing for me is price. The car needs a volume selling GT model (like the Durango) that still has decent power and all but slots under the R/T in power and price...

    Ram’s Upcoming Midsize Pickup Will Be Body-On-Frame

    While it's cool to have a midsize truck from the Ram brand, the main squeeze, my two biggest questions are what are the powertrains and how affordable will this truck be. The 1500 pickup has a Hemi and two Hurricanes in their lineup so my guess is this truck will come with the new 325hp 2.0L...

    2026 Dodge Durango Goes All-HEMI® But CARB States Miss Out On Big Power

    CARB Compliant HP = Hurricane Hybrid. I'm not going to lie, I'm honestly baffled by this whole entire thing when we have other ways of making power outside of just the Hemi V8. We know the 2.0L 4Xe hybrid system makes 375hp which is 15hp more than a 5.7L Durango (360hp) and makes 470lb-ft of...

    2026 Dodge Durango Goes All-HEMI® But CARB States Miss Out On Big Power

    All of the Durango trim levels should have Jailbreak options. That's first and foremost. Secondly, the Charger (all trim levels) should get Jailbreak options as well. Customization should not be limited to trim level.

    Dodge Charger And Jeep® Wagoneer S Recalled For Rollaway Risk

    Jeep® Fans Pack Detroit 4Fest 2025

    It'd be nice if Stellantis took alot of the TRX/RHO tech and put it into the Gladiator with a 550hp Hurricane-6

    1967 Dodge D200 Sweptline Custom Build Hits BringATrailer

    This article makes me wonder what ever happened to the Direct Connection rolling chassis cars that they were supposed to bring out along with the carbon fiber 70 Charger? To me, it would be cool if Direct Connection brought out several different Mopar models from the '60's and '70's on the STLA...

    Direct Connection’s Supercharged Surprise Ram 1500 Express

    Kind of my thinking too. If not every dealer, perhaps an SRT/DC associated dealership in a geographic area. I guess my thinking goes along the lines of utilizing what we have as a brand. Especially since these brands are all about passion. I've worked in Dealerships for years now and I can't...

    Direct Connection’s Supercharged Surprise Ram 1500 Express

    Could you imagine what Direct Connection could do with the 5.7L if they really thought about it? A few years ago they had that "Scat Pack" Stage kit setup for the 5.7L which had the 392 Heads and exhaust along with an upgraded cam and a tune. Imagine for a second what Direct Connection could do...
