Never said they made a 2024 Challenger. I said Challenger/Charger stopped selling immediately when Stellantis officially said "no more V8s". Which, is true and is evidenced by the $20k off sticker promotions we're seeing as they try and unload them.
GM gets outsold by Stellantis in NA? Are...
Absolutely not true.
GM sells the #2 most purchased vehicle in the nation which is the full size pickup and a HUGE majority of those have V8 engines. In addition to that they sell Tahoe which is the #1 full size SUV in America....mostly with V8s. They sell Corvettes with cross-plane and...
Here's the bottom line. The guy earlier in this thread who said it's all about marketing is 100% correct. I go to some of the largest car shows in the Ohio Valley region of the country. When I'm there, what I see is people age 20 through age 70 all along the streets, parking lots, etc. with...
There's more to the equation than power. They would look at fuel economy as well when making that decision. We're already seeing the 3.0TT produce lower MPG than the 5.7 Hemi in the real world tests being shown on YouTube and other reviews online, so it's a guarantee that the 3.0TT would...
I still think there are only two things holding EVs back. Price and charge time.
When you can buy an EV that costs the same as the gas model and you can go from 15% to 100% charge in 5 minutes THAT is when people will take EVs seriously.
The Butter Da Insider video I referenced would be worth a watch. I don't know either way, but the UAW workers examples of things they are seeing is awfully curious to me. I am by no means a fan of the Union, but when you hear multiple employees describe explicit details of things they are...
A popular YouTuber who goes by "Butter Da Insider" posted a video yesterday with somewhat credible evidence that Stellantis is purposefully sabotaging the new Ram 1500 trucks due to their hatred of the Union.
And then lo and behold what do I see next? A 2025 Ram 1500 review video by Matt...
If the rumors from performance shops are true, that the Hurricane is breaking rods at about 600 HP, I'm guessing any of these rumored 700+ horsepower variants will have to be totally different internally. That sounds expensive.
I hope they've taken so long to bring the JT 4xe to market because they've been working on extending the electric-only range of the battery pack. Give me 50 miles of electric only with a solid ICE for backup and that would be the perfect midsize pickup truck.
RacerX on YouTube just posted a video about this. It's titled something like "do I regret buying the Demon 170?" You should go watch it. About 3/4th of the way through the video he mentioned that a lot of Demon owners have contacted him saying that they also have had failures on their cars...
I haven't seen a single Jeep 4xe video where the owner was able to get significant amounts of charge from the regenerative braking system. The system may help extend range a bit, but it doesn't seem to actually charge the battery to full.
See, I think plug-in hybrid is the only way to do it. The F-150 hybrid is terrible and nobody likes it because the things that COULD be a benefit are not due to lack of control by the operator. With a PHEV like the Jeep 4xe you get the best of both worlds. You can charge youself and drive on...
Yep and to make matters worse, a current and direct competitor in the Ford Mustang has had an engine for 10+ years now that guys have pushed to 1,000 HP on aftermarket twin turbo kits. I have a good friend right now with a 2018 Mustang GT that he bought for $32k and then he put a $8k mail order...
Yeah, Ramcharger is the only thing from this company I’m curious about also. Bet it’s going to be PRICEY though. I probably won’t be able to get one.
The Jeep Recon is slightly interesting, but they’ve given ZERO info on that thing since they announced it was coming almost two years ago...
I traded my Challenger for a Mustang last year that is 2 years newer and has more horsepower. My insurance premium went DOWN, not up. Stories like this are why. Insurance companies have picked up on the fact that the Dodge cars are a #1 theft target.
That's the opposite of what is printed in official materials. Just this week when the EPA info was released (is even in the article for this thread), it clearly states 89 octane "can be used" for the Hurricane S.O. (suggesting they recommend 91+ premium) and 91+ is a requirement for the H.O...
Wow. So Z E R O gain in fuel economy, AND you have to run mid-grade gas in the S.O. version and high-grade in the H.O. version. So basically it's going to cost more to drive the new powertrain than it did the old one. Brilliant, just brilliant.
Long live the Hemi! If you have a Hemi, keep...
