The problem with the Trackhawk is overpriced and not limited. 2,000ish HellRango’s are going to be just like the Demon.
I could see that happening...but wont the Rango be iust as expensive??

They are good boats. Used to make them right here, 20 miles from where I live. At one point, they became so popular they could not make enough to meet demand.
This stupid county gave them a rash of shit about expanding, so they moved the whole damn business out of state (NC or SC as I recall).
Stupid policitians - then they sat around pissing & moaning about the loss of a major business & the jobs that went with it. :mad:

The good old pancake boat lol and growing up spent many summers in TN with my uncle and cousins on Percy Priest Lake. My cousin was a huge Motörhead and had a sweet 1971 Corvette Stingray and he used it to tow his boat lol. Remember the rear wheels always busting loose and especially at the boat ramp lol. He had a similar boat as in the video with a small block Chevy in her. Holly crap that thing did close to 100mph. I was just 12 years old then and he would take me for a ride and talk about your eyeballs about popping out lol. Those boats are scary fast since if they get just s little too much air under them it’s over.

The design of that boat looks like an old Glastron my brother owned back in the 80's.
He had a 115 Johnson on the back and it went pretty fast, can't imagine what it would have been like if he had dropped a big block in it - LOL.

Part of the problem with short run stuff is the lack of aftermarket support...
Few people will want to modify a limited run vehicle
Fewer still if it's a Durango that already has over 700hp
And so we're stuck with the same support as the TH - which isn't horrible - but how long will it be around?
I, for one, would be happy with a 1000rwhp Durango that can tow 8400lbs... I just don't have the $100k to make it happen right now :)
