From what they are now due to surplus on lots. If rates don’t go down, prices “should”

From 2020 to 2023 is a huge jump. I paid $36K for a 1500 Laramie quad cab, level 1 pkg, leather, posi, trailer tow and 5.7 hybrid plus a bunch of other stuff to a window sticker only buy of about $65-70K?

I made about $12K when I traded it for the 2500. It had crazy rebates and the dealer discounted the crap out of it.

Could you imagine EV over ice...AWD Challenger 1300 HP...and not a limited production..:unsure:
I could imagine it. But I still think it needs to be coupled to raw Ice power with the real sound and visceral feel of it. I would love to be the 1 week test pilot to find out first hand. Something tells me I am correct about the two merged.

So, what's next?

There's always going to be something out there.

Stellantis is foolish.

PSA was French, FCA was Italian, they merged and we got Stellantis. Neither one of them deserved to be in control of a V8 muscle car company. I miss Daimler Chrysler.

Not a fan of those weirdos. They can shove their woke ass shit where the sun doesn't shine.

The Fix It Again Tony people weren't as bad, though.

But the ICE that they get coupled to are 3 or 4cyl generators… not exactly visceral.
A heavy battery with a heavy electric motor is the last thing you need when you already have a heavy 700hp iron brick under the hood… so it would have to be small battery and small motor just to add some torque, but that doesn’t get us to 1000+ hp or anything really exciting. Small TTV6 or “high hp” 4cyl + equally “high hp” electric is what they do.
Exotics are the only ones doing it well, like the Regera, and Stellantis has no appetite to do it well.

They think that we'll all love Vauxhall and forget the past.
