They don’t need the Etorque system in it doesn’t do anything other than have smooth restarts at the street light, i have had two of them now no mileage increases to speak of and the truck shifts wierd compared to the non etorque models.

They should take this time to improve the Hemi or Magnum engine that may have been in the works before being cancelled, bring out that 7.0 litre in a performance model do something to get people excited.

I agree. I would rather go with no HEMI V8 for three or four years to get a state-of-the-art Gen4 HEMI V8.

Would love to see the 6.4 in roughly 420-450hp
