I'm not shocked that the 2020 high end (HC/RE) aren't getting much of anything. I am still waiting to see if the 392 gets retired and if the 426 takes over the scat models for N/A. I really hope if that happens they go forged internals. It will really help with future mods for owners. If they don't go with forged internals I'll be disappointed. There are a few things the mustang 5.0 has over the challenger 392. Forged internals and E85 ready are two big ones. The Camaro SS has cast internals too (I think).
The Charger is what I'm most disappointed in. Seems FCA wants to do a 1 year WB Charger like they did with the 18 WB Challenger Hellcat, and the next year following (2021) the WB RE Charger should follow. Dodge is milking the platform either to squeeze all the money from it, buy time for the next platform, or both! I think the big HP discount was an awesome idea. The only reason I believe they did that was not because they were coming out with something brand new themselves, but to avoid losing customers to Chevy and Ford. I'm sure it worked decently well too, big discounts!
Anyone who waited for something better than HP discount for top models (HC/RE), you goofed up! If you are waiting on the 426, I get that, tough call. RS told us about a year ago it was coming, hopefully that is still the case!
