Tavares Says No More Hemi V8s

[DavidKFla]

I guess that they don't care about going out of business?

Doesn't matter to Stellantis. They don't understand the American market and Dodge has never been a very profitable brand anyway. V8 Dodge fans represent an even smaller portion of that Dodge pie that they already don't care about.

Dude very obviously enjoys the company of those of the same gender AND happens to be as dumb as a box of rocks.

 

[BULL]

I'm glad I got mine.

Yeah but you can't tell me they didn't make a nice chunk of money on all the Hemi Chargers and Challengers. With the price increases alone over the years on the same car had to be a lot by itself

 

[vortecd]

Also more proof it isn't about the environment but about money. If these engine are polluting so much they shouldn't be able to sell them at all but as long as you have emission credits you can
Trucks I guess don't pollute so ok to put Hemi in them

The Government is so full of shit at every level I want to puke

When they need more taxpayers money they come up with some sort of made up bullshit

 

[Boris]

Everyone is jacking their prices.
This will continue until the market crashes forcing companies to change their ways.

Anything else is just bullshit excuse to justify their actions.

 

[Smitty]

Should be interesting to see the sales trajectory heading into the toilet when most of what they have to sell is EV. I guess that’s the trajectory Taveres is talking about. 😂

 

[MikeD1]

Typical euro-trash mindset ! They stated from the beginning they were really after Ram & Jeep and had no real interest in Dodge or Chrysler.
So not really surprised they are trashing both those brands.

As others stated above - glad I got mine when I did

 

[HWDan]

Enough already?

The absolutely last, very last call, Dodge means it this time.

In case you haven't heard.

 

[Hellcatcfp]

Won't go out of business. Bailouts are coming IMHO...if not already here behind the scenes (lines of credit, etc.).

You can fix the weather with tax.

$1700 gas guzzler tax and It gets 25 mpg on the highway. A 6.4 Ram 2500 4x4 gets 11 mpg but no guzzler tax?

Yeah, my Hellcat had the $1700 tax, was rated at 16mpg and gets 20. The DDSRT had no tax, was rated at 15 mpg and was getting 16/17.
Makes zero sense - stupid gubmt regs mucking up everything !
