    CAUGHT: 2026 Dodge Charger Outlaw Rips Through Detroit Streets

    Nice!!! Now this is a Charger. I know you all want your Hemi, but this will definitely do until then, so bring it on. Like the famous line in Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, “I want it now!”

    Low-Mile Legend: 2005 Ram Daytona 4×4 with Just 32K Miles

    Dodge/Chrysler has needed this car for a while. It should have been ready to go when the Avenger ended its run. Should have been on the new 200 platform. Speaking of the 200, that was a fine car doing fairly well in sales until SM opened his mouth and trashed it about the rear roof line and...

    Chrysler CEO Outlines Bold Future at Chrysler Carlisle Nationals

    BTW forgot to ask in my last post. Is Chris being paid for doing nothing with zero results? Or is she just eye candy until they get things going and she gets replaced?

    Chrysler CEO Outlines Bold Future at Chrysler Carlisle Nationals

    Sorry I still don’t trust or have faith in Chris, but I really do believe in Antonio, Tim, Matt and Ralph. So I am holding out hope for Chrysler. I thing it all come down to timing and how long it takes to get new product into showrooms and on lots.

    Dodge Sales Collapse by Nearly 50% in First Half of 2025

    What did they honestly expect? End 2 products at the same time. Replace two with one, wait months before you put the new one out, which is now a different vehicle (from ICE to EV), wait a year plus before you put out an ICE version then release the 2 door and 4 door months apart. On top of...

    Ram’s Upcoming Midsize Pickup Will Be Body-On-Frame

    Nothing wrong with the Pentastar 3.6. Chrysler milked the 318 forever, why not the 3.6? It’s a dependable engine, gets great gas mileage no matter what it’s in. Our family is running it in our 2019 Cherokee, 2021 Charger and Durango. My daughter is doing 24/31 in her Charger (which is...

    Ram’s Upcoming Midsize Pickup Will Be Body-On-Frame

    Bob, I understand that the 2026 models will be out soon , if not already. But the article says “And we now know that it will be built at the Belvidere Assembly Plant in Illinois, starting in 2027”. Key word starting. So that is 2 years out, which it will be a late 2027 or early 2028 model. I...

    Ram’s Upcoming Midsize Pickup Will Be Body-On-Frame

    Did you just say 2027? Seriously, 2 more years!!! If Stellantis did not have any mid/small pickups out there, I would say okay let’s suck it up and wait. They have 3 that have been out for years one of which is very successful. How hard would it be in this billion dollar auto company to...

    Ram Expands Sport Truck Lineup With 2026 2500 Black Express and Warlock Models

    As a Mopar guy I love the Ram and if I was in the market for a P/U, I would land in one. With that being said, I do not know pricing in the truck market, so I will be asking a stupid question. Members here have been up set that they can’t get into a basic Ram for under $40K. Now that was...

    The Chrysler Voyager Is Back for 2026 — And It’s All About Practicality

    I definitely have to agree with you there. Seeing how both the Pacifica and Voyager have different front ends and tail lights. They could have moved the Voyager to Dodge and renamed it the Grand Caravan. Then just have two versions of the Pacifica, the hybrid and the ICE version. Then hopefully...

    The Chrysler Voyager Is Back for 2026 — And It’s All About Practicality

    The O.G. In mini vans is well priced for what it offers. Although our last mini van was a 2001 Grand Caravan many years ago, but have since rented this version many times over the last several years. We loved every bit of it. Although not having little ones anymore, this is not needed for our...

    Why Ram’s Electric Trucks Are Delayed… It’s Not What You Think

    The common sense part I was referring to was building what people want. It has been pretty obvious over the last 12-18 months Ram/truck buyers did not want EV (or even hybrids). Ram buyers even voiced options on the loss of the Hemi and were not thrilled with the Hurricane I6. Ram in return...

    Why Ram’s Electric Trucks Are Delayed… It’s Not What You Think

    Common sense has returned to Ram. Who would have thought!

    Why Ram Can't Build a Full-Size Truck for Under $40K?

    I think the average person gets it. It is 2025, them days are over. Try buying a house for under $250,000 in New England, NY or NJ. Forget about it! I get your point Tim, every thing goes up. You did say, “Until a mid-size pickup takes the baton”. We’ll then, get er done! Problem solved.

    Tim Kuniskis Talks NASCAR Return with Kevin Harvick

    Well, it is no longer if Ram (and Dodge) gets back in NASCAR, it is now that they are, at least for the inaugural season, a special edition NASCAR Ram. Time to capitalize on this event. Coming up with a limited number of trucks to sell for 2026 would be a wise move. Looking forward to a...

    Upcoming Chrysler Crossover To Debut As A Hybrid

    I agree, the Grand Cherokee L should end at the MSR. It should be moved and refreshed as a Chrysler SUV. It should be up graded with some nicer amenities than the Jeep version. That would be a good size luxury SUV under the Chrysler brand. The all new 2027 Durango should share the platform...

    Stellantis Stuck With California EV Rules Despite Federal Rollbacks

    I live in CT and as I write this I am on vacation in San Diego. Cruising the highways here is incredible seeing all the Teslas and EV‘s, unbelievable, UGH. Glad I rented a big ol’ Durango. Not sure it the Cali folks are giving me dirty looks because I am driving a gas guzzler ICE vehicle or...

    Upcoming Chrysler Crossover To Debut As A Hybrid

    I know I will get some hate for this, but I really like the Airflow. I would be interested in one of it did make it to production and was offered in ICE or Hybrid. As much as I like it, I would take a hard pass on an EV. I really like the look of this, I don’t see it as a cookie cutter. It...
