Love what I'm hearing on the new midsize truck and it's almost certain it'll have the new EVO 4 engine under the hood. The unique chassis has to be some version of the STLA frame since they would likely want it to be similar to the 1500 in some ways.

The thing I'm most curious about is the new large SUV. That chart in your video showed Jeeo with 2, Dodge getting one and RAM getting one, the last one has to be Chrysler, because it's the only NA brand that hasn't seen product investment. Also, Chrysler still hasn't made any commitment to saying the C6X was still coming as a large 2 row.

A bit smaller than the ranger. The ranger doesn't justify even producing, right? The Dodge Dakota became so ugly in the last years ,people stopped buying them, period end of story. Mostly this body on frame truck needs to actually be affordable, wouldn't you agree? I had a Dakota and liked it.

Think it was less about the looks and more about the size and price. Not to mention the underpowered and extremely fragile 4.7 V8. Got too big and too expensive.

Rumors are Ford is finally going to bring the Everest the NA, is this a good time to bring back BOF MidSize SUV?

My impression on this Ram mid-size is that management has done a real evaluation of mistakes made on the last mid-size thus creating a mission of delivering a great product regardless of costs and offering real market driven value with emphasis on pricing and capability. I agree, looks are not so critical in this process, the big Ram is a great model to emulate, so I’m confident on this issue. Most important, it must offer class leading capabilities at a more than competitive price point and I think the choice of linkages between this Ram and future significant products now under development are key to making these necessities for the Ram very doable and smart. Not going fast or cheap on this truck will pay dividends in the end. It seems management is making better decisions across the whole product board. Actually very hard decisions if you think about it. My impression.
