    Inside Design: 2005 Jeep Hurricane Concept:

    Am I the only one that looks at that picture and thinks “maintenance nightmare”?

    The Future Of The Chrysler Brand Is Coming In The Form Of Crossovers:

    Nicely done. It will be good to have more horses in the stable.

    FCA Group North American November 2018 Sales - Up 17%

    Challengers up to 5000 vehicles? It nearing Charger numbers! That’s damn fine for a full sized coup, and might be why management is willing to let the 300 wither.

    CAUGHT: 2019 Ram 2500 Big Horn Shows Its New Face:

    Trying to like the new styling, but just like the 1500, I can’t get past the messy transition from grill to hood. OTOH, it’s not like I’m in the market for a full size, so it’s not really up to me eh?

    Sunday morning coffee and cars

    Aftermarket mishmash on a hellcat. Must have paid a fortune on importation fees and certifications. Or he knew somebody.

    CAUGHT: The 2020 Jeep® Gladiator Overland On The Streets:

    Pretty sure it’s just the scenery reflected in the paint.

    Fiat to Spend $5.7 Billion to Revamp Italy Car Plants

    This is great news. It should have the same effect of increasing production efficiency we’ve benefited from in the US. In the end FCA should have the right products in the right factories for most of its operations world wide. Hopefully not too late to avoid the oncoming market correction.

    Rivian, the EV startup that stole the L.A. Auto Show: Who are these guys?

    Not too many people can afford to throw around that kinda money. China’s Nuevo millionaires—they love ex’s and aren’t afraid to invest, might also want to keep a low profile with trade tensions and all Russian oligarchs—need some way to launder their money and real estate is getting crowded...

    GM Closing in Oshawa Ontario

    Tired of talking heads lumping “the Detroit 3” together. They are each in very different places, product and financial wise due to very different decision making. How bout some nuance? I’m talking to you Morning Edition.

    GM Closing in Oshawa Ontario

    Not sure how much Mary Bara had to do with consumers shift away from sedans, or the reluctance to reduce overcapacity during bankruptcy proceedings, or the downturn in the China market. But she did sign off on the awful new trucks and the disastrous Camero redesign so there’s that.

    What does everyone currently drive?

    No mopars in the house at this time. We have all GM (hand me downs): a 2005 Lacrosse, a 2006 Impala, and an old beat up 1984? hEl Camino that I’m holding on to until we can hand it off to a nephew to rebuild as his first car. I got rid of my 1st gen Neon when it became apparent that our...

    Happy Thanksgiving All!

    I would like to say how thankful I am for this site. It is a much needed distraction (in a good way) from the day to day grind of life. Hope you all are able to spend some time with family today, wherever you may be!

    Meet The New Ram 1000 Pickup For The Columbian Market:

    To me this is a pretend truck. Not to say that a truck has to be BOF or RWD or have great huge wheels to be a “real” truck. That being said, if you don’t have those things, why even TRY to look like you do? To me the Fiat Doblo dropside pickup is much more authentic in its appearance with...

    U.S. Senator son asks John Elkann to fire Mary Barra for FCA-GM Merger ,sell Italian units to PSA

    I think the GM ship is continuing to flounder. Merging FCA with GM will not cure the systemic problems that have brought the latter to this point, it will only paper them over for a short time. The forced sale of the Fiat, Alfa Romeo, and Maserati smacks of blind nativism and serves no valid...

    Next Generation Cummins To Get CGI Block?

    Should be able to do a little of both.

    From the Rumor Mill: Ford Mustang Sedan To Feature Turbo V8 Engine

    Perhaps they got tired of losing sales to the slightly larger, more accommodating Challenger?

    From the Rumor Mill: Ford Mustang Sedan To Feature Turbo V8 Engine

    Thinking it over, it looks like they’re trying to establish a Mustang sub-brand. This would be a mistake IMHO, as the ‘stang’s life blood is as the quinticential ponycar. The 4 door performance car should be the Thunderbird, as the definition of luxury has changed since the ‘60s. The...

    From the Rumor Mill: Ford Mustang Sedan To Feature Turbo V8 Engine

    It’s Fords answer to the Charger, and only a decade late.

    If you could own any non mopar car and/or truck, what would it be?

    Which is what makes the ‘64 split window so special. :p
