    Chrysler’s 300 HEMI® C Drop-Top Dream Reemerges

    Maybe we can modernize this slightly, and put it into production. Ford did it with the T-Bird from 2002-05. Yea it would be a limited production, but so was the Viper and Prowler. If sales are there, you can increase numbers.

    Chrysler’s 300 HEMI® C Drop-Top Dream Reemerges

    I know you won’t agree, but I think the Airflow should have made it into production as an EV, Hybrid and ICE. I think putting it out with 3 options, it would have done better than people think. I believe it was further along than we were told. They had nothing to loose taking a chance. They...

    OFFICIAL: The 5.7-liter HEMI® V8 Returns To The Ram 1500 For 2026

    You are so correct Bill. Now the next twist. Marketing and advertising!!! Suggestion... Bring back the "Does that thing have a Hemi in it?" guys!!! Classic commercial, and what better way to let people know is something that still gets said from time to time. I actually had someone say...

    Chrysler CEO Takes Future As Brand Turns 100

    I agree with Bill. This whole thing with Chrysler is ridiculous. They keep saying Chrysler is going nowhere but yet nothing‘s happening. First it’s 2024, then 2025, then 2026 now 2027! They need to do it sooner rather than later. Bill, the one thing you said that really made me laugh, is you...

    2026 Dodge Durango R/T Gets Redline Style and Muscle Upgrades

    So the good ol’ 7 passenger OG Durango marches on with better engine choices then the 7 passenger Jeep Grand Cherokee. As much as I love the Durango (and currently own one) I have to say this is what is hurting Jeep! This really needs to be corrected. Good for Dodge, but bad for Jeep.

    Toyota Eyes Compact Truck Segment as Ram’s Rampage Waits in the Wings

    How about we just get this going asap In Belvedere, start with the Pentastar 3.6. That engine is powerful enough for the Durango and I am sure it will work in a U.S. version of the Rampage. Once we get sales going and put on the street we can look at another optional power plant for it like...

    Toyota Eyes Compact Truck Segment as Ram’s Rampage Waits in the Wings

    Time is running out, if it hasent yet. Ram needs this small truck YESTERDAY!! Tim was brought back for a reason and now needs to put his money where his mouth is and get this going NOW not in a year to two. Like I said, they have the design, the factory and workers waiting to start!!! There...

    Wagoneer Production Paused Again at Warren Truck Plant

    Most definitely! A full size Ram/Dodge SUV has been needed so bad since we lost the Ramcharger back in 1993!!! Have seen so many homemade/custom versions over the years, yet, like everything else no REAL Ram versions. Don’t get me wrong, I LOVE my 2021 Durango, because it’s the right size for...

    Ram’s Future Midsize Truck Could Get Trick Aero Diffuser

    If it is really affordable, and can get some younger people in a “Ram” instead of a Ford, why not. I really love everything about the Rampage, look, size and great ratings/reviews. I definitely would consider one if I could get an ICE version.

    Ram’s Future Midsize Truck Could Get Trick Aero Diffuser

    Why is it Europe, Brazil and Mexico there are 3 different size small Ram pick ups and we have been waiting here in the U.S. just for one for several years. There is the Ram 700, Ram 1200 and the Ram Rampage. We have had plans to build one. So far, still plans and no truck, but plans...

    2026 Dodge Charger Daytona Scat Pack Brings Big Changes

    I know the Pentastar 3.6 is an older engine by TODAY’s standards, but it is a workhorse, reliable and gets pretty good mpg. I agree a base ICE should be added as an affordable version of the new Charger, SE or SXT. To continue with the 3.6 really wouldn’t be a bad idea.

    Ram Delays 1500 Ramcharger and REV Pickups Again

    Let’s face it, no one, except tree huggers want an EV pick up. It is time to completely scrap the Ram 1500 EV, but stay on track for the Ramcharger. To be honest we do not know how things will be in 3 years, and if the Dems get back the White House in ‘28, and the EV mandates come back, at...

    Stellantis Scales Back Production at Windsor Assembly

    So, is the ICE Charger still starting production this month, or due to the tariffs is it being pushed back? If it stays on schedule, and sales are better than expected, will this change the cut on production, and change the cutbacks? Apparently, they are not commenting on these two things.

    Chasing Redemption: The Forgotten Chrysler R-Body Police Cars

    The Police car that could have been!! After 1977, both Dodge (Royal Monaco) and Plymouth (Gran Fury) saw their full-size C-Body Police cars go bye, and they had to settle for the smaller B-Body's for 1978. After 1978, they were gone too. I know my PD scrambled to find a replacement and...

    2026 Dodge Charger SIXPACK ICE Models Get Bold New Trim Names

    Wondering if the Law Enforcement version will still be called the Pursuit, and if it will have heavy duty upgrades like the previous models. I am also wondering when they will be available for municipalities to order. Many are winding down their 2023 Chargers and some have already switched to...

    SPOTTED: 2026 Dodge Charger SIXPACK H/O Two-Door

    This car looks bad ass. Taking the Hemi out of the mix, I was not a fan of the updated 2015-23 round body style. The 2011-14 had more of a retro look and lines. This new design gives the feel of the ‘60’s Chargers. Can’t wait for these!!!

    Last Of The Pursuit Legends: Ross Urtel’s 1977 MSP Plymouth Fury

    OMG, love photo 1. I owned a 1979 Newport and loved it. I also see behind it a C-body Gran Fury (‘75-77) or could be a 1974 C-body Fury. When I started collecting Mopars, I had 3 old cruisers, a 1976 Gran Fury, 1980 Gran Fury and a 1985 Gran Fury. Loved them so much. I owned my 1980 R-body...
