This Dodge will not go unnoticed that’s for sure. Obvious Dodge tried hard in a trying situation. Again, as stated before, you have to celebrate the positive. Dodge still needs more product and a revamp of at least the Hornet shortly. I’d love to see a smaller coupe and hatchback sedan, sort of...

I’ll say it again, take all the positive you can get and shout it to the mountain tops. I’ve also championed a wholistic approach to the current issues at Stellantis by recognizing and taking encouragement from the outstanding gems in the pipeline. Look and see, as they say. Yes Ram needs a V-8...

I think all of us linked together here are struggling with the leadership issues of a Stellantis, that if it is to prosper, MUST acknowledge the significant differences, respectfully, between the North American market and the European market. Daimler, Fiat and now Stellantis have not been able...

Deeply disappointed after some thought is a bit harsh. Like you I see this as a role too small for Tim’s talents. If it were Ram and Dodge maybe, but not Ram alone, not after the rumors of millions in the offering and him taking over as CEO. Like you, I say this can not be the whole story. But...

Got to say I’m disappointed, he should have taken over the whole North American operation. Dodge still anguishes with the Charger fiasco and its lack of product. Chrysler is essentially rudderless and Jeep has issues. This is a bandage when major surgery is needed. Great to see Tim back and yes...

This is getting ridiculous, the level of quality in supplier parts is unacceptable and a direct result of cost cutting to maximize profits and salaries. Yea we get it and it’s ugly. People are not buying Stellantis vehicles because of these defective parts and the cost to brand reputations is...

Much thought went into your statement and I see some synergy on my part with your thinking I thought appropriate to share. As I hinted to, Dodge has intelligently placed itself in an electric car niche that could resonate with electric buyers who want some excitement and exclusivity with their...

I’ll take the positive as one step forward. Let’s go through the ashes, find what is positive and start putting things right. I agree this Ram needs a V-8 option though the Hurricane has much going for it and should find many customers for buyers who see its value as a cleaner and powerful...

I like it. This is Dodges only trump card, (no pun here), it’s electric but not like any other electric, it’s a “muscle car electric”. I’ve been critical on electrics but acknowledge they have and deserve a place in the market place, the ultimate judge on this discussion. It is possible that the...

I don’t pretend to be a trained or skilled business executive but I offer my best thinking when I comment. Individuals judge those comments, hopefully with respect. Here I go, again. I have stated, repeatedly here that job one for Stellantis is build quality which builds confidence and trust in...

Reports Cherokee will be built at Belvedere and Wagoneer S will be canceled. Ram midsize pickup cold join the Cherokee. Both must have ICE option.

It is in the UAWs best interest to support flexibility and cooperation with struggling Stellantis. Victory lap has been taken and the damage remains from the old regime, but if the whole show collapses than everyone loses. Rumors of Belvedere building the Cherokee and if not canceled, the...

We need all the good news we can get. Let’s not forget that some good things were in the pipeline in spite of the fiasco of the Carlos era. Styling somewhat confusing, but likely a low tier issue compared to the major improvements from Cummins. Let’s celebrate the good that lies beneath the...

The important thing about the Rampage is that much of the market questions about a mid-size Ram pickup have been answered. A similar, but better for sure, STLA Large platform based pickup will have a strong following in North America and eventually as a global product. Let’s fast track our Ram...

I do hope customers will have an ICE option in the new Cherokee. I love my Cherokee but I will be out the door on another without a gasoline six under the hood. This is a major market segment for Jeep, let’s hope the mistakes that have haunted Jeep lately will not destroy the Cherokee. The...

With the change in leadership there should emerge three basic iron clad commitments for recovery. First, vast improvement in build quality to restore public confidence. Second, redirect finances to build pending product, especially gas powered vehicles, as soon as possible. Third, offer engine...

So many well thought out opinions, seems though as divergent opinions are added, one theme is held in common, things need to change fast. I’d like to add a bit of can do and not wish for the world in one gulp. Job one, improve build quality. Job two build what people want and invest in that...

He certainly made a mess of things. Like others trying to run an American car company with a European background, he could not make the connection or inculcate the respect for American excellence that eventually torpedoed all these executives. Watching too much soccer does strange things to...

Putting up my Christmas tree today has put old Mopar Willy in a present wishing mood. Sugar plums dancing and all. Dear Santa, please get Alfa Romeo to allow Dodge to bring a Corvette fighter to market. I know all the Mopar Santa’s out there can imagine a reskinned 33 Stradale becoming a next...

Just a clarification on my comment. I had a Dodge Shadow two door hatch and a turbo four two door hatch Plymouth Sundance and both were some appealing package. The turbo version was a blast too. Affordable, very stylish and that hatchback was a grocery getters solution to almost every need. The...
