I've owned 2 Dakotas in the past and loved them. They were very capable trucks for being mid-size. I hope the new one lives up to the legacy of the previous ones.

He's exactly what Stellantis needs in a CEO. We need a product guy. Someone who loves making great cars and trucks that not only inspire the workers but the car buying public as well. Unfortunately, when you have factories and interests in major global markets where needs and politics are...

No TV show or movie did more to present the Dodge Charger as one of the most iconic muscle cars of it's era and all time. Let's hope we can say that about the new 2025 Charger someday.

This is good news. Elkann is well connected and a very smart guy. He went straight to the source which is exactly what he needed to do. I'm sure he has a plan forward now for the Mopar brands or I hope he does. Personally, I'm not a fan of tariffs unless we are not getting a fair deal or don't...

The Mustang has always been a niche vehicle with no real backseat. They should just make it a 2 seater with a hatch and be done with it. It's a halo car, but it's a bada$$ halo car. The issues with GM on the engines and transmissions are, from what I have been told by people who should know, is...

I suspect some of the CARB state voters, such as California, may be having a change of heart on how their state is governed, in light (no pun intended) of recent events in that state. I feel a movement is going to happen and drop kick Newsom and a few others out of office. Californians also love...

I'm sure Trump will schedule a meeting with the auto execs, like he did 8 years ago, and reach an agreement on how to move forward. Killing the electric car mandate is a good plan since we don't have the infrastructure to support it anyway. And, as I'm snowed in today, I'm also listening to my...

The recently retired 5.7L Eagle V8 engine dates back to 2003 and had some needed modifications in 2009. Since then it has been unchanged except for the addition of e-torque in 2019. It performed amazingly well in that 22 year span. The Hemi name itself helped sell a lot of cars and trucks. If...

I thought all new Chrysler product was going to be BEV. Is that changing now? I like this change if it is true. But why cancel a new BEV if it is so close to production? Chrysler needs something now. Even a BEV would be something.

My first thought on this is, does this foretell the demise of the Chrysler brand? Is Stellantis diverting funds to other brands or is this just cost cutting? It's kind of hard to sell product when you don't have anything new to sell. I thought the Airflow concept was a good one and almost ready...

Change is a coming! That is all I have to say. Regards, Joe Forum Guy

Bill. I like your thinking on this. Stellantis needs to think outside the box and something like this just may work. I do think robotics can reduce the number of employees that it takes to make these vehicles but I'm sure the UAW would not like that idea. Nor is moving production to Mexico or a...

And I'm saying the current legislation is going to change. If Cali and New York want to go on their own, let them. Most of Cali does not want BEV. They will drive across state lines to buy a car or whatever it takes. I'm not about to let a idiot bureaucrat tell me what I can and can't drive. And...

Bill, A lot of American and European companies have lost their mojo. Can they get it back? They certainly can if the right management team is in place. Getting rid of Taveras was a good first move. Let's hope they can right this ship and get back to glory days again soon.

This Wagoneer S is a BEV only vehicle. It won't sell to half the country and I doubt it sells well in California or New York. Time will tell. I hope all Jeeps sell well. I'm rooting for them and not against them. I just think the tide is turning against BEV and coming back to more common sense...

We need a green Hornet here with an ad campaign that makes the owner feel like a crime fighting superhero. Then these Hornets might start selling.

Another great looking concept that never made it to production. Same with the Copperhead roadster. At least the prowler got made and it was an even more stunning car.

Luckily, I don't have to come up with a business plan but I am happy so offer suggestions or opine on what I wish that Stellantis would do for Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and Ram. That is what this forum is for. I've been a loyal Mopar customer for 50 years. And we all can't take the subway, bus or...

I know a few Californians and they love their cars, especially the gas burning ones. I have visited the state both North and South many times the last few years and what strikes me most is that I see very few electric cars there. From what I had heard in the news and on social media, I assumed...

We all know the regulatory environment and what put us in this position in the first place. It's the cart before the horse ideology of the state who is demanding we all drive electric cars without first providing adequate electricity production and not anywhere near enough charging stations. Nor...
