Another case of listening to their customer-base:

The mustangs also don't have RPM rev limiters on them so you can rev them above 4.000 rpms for fun

Have to see what the future holds. I only had mustangs in the past because dodge didn't have rear wheel v8 in the 80s and 90s. Like many things history may repeat itself in the 2030s. Difference this time will be that 10-15 year old dodge ( our current cars ) will be a much different animal to have then the 15 year old car from the 80s. A lot can happen and change from now to 2032. I'm sure not to excited by the 2024 mustang in the looks department

Wishful thinking.
Maybe after Stellantis asphyxiates itself on its own vomit (cars like the Hornet), another company will pick up the Dodge brand with great cars again.

Ford is losing billions of dollars per year ($5 bil) on EV's right now. I think there will be a reset in the amount of focus on EV's at some point. EV's will still be a factor but at some point, you have to notice that ICE is creating profit and EV's are not. They need to focus on what people want NOW while preparing for the future. It's like if all the major clothing companies offer their clothing in one size fits all and it's up to you to change your body to fit that Extra Small that uses less fabric

For our better halves, not that there's anything wrong with that! (NTTAWWT)

Stellantis never wanted Dodge or Chrysler. They wanted Ram and Jeep.
I don't think they care if Dodge lives or dies.

I viewed a Hornet Sunday at a car show
Nice car for younger people or older people older real old
Compact
Fits in the small ass garages they build on houses today
Lots of options
Price was right
Gas power
Way cheaper then an EV


Challenger / Charger are suppose to be out fall 2024
I can t see that happening with the delays I m seeing

Well I’m keeping my Hellcat but my wife and I have moved to other brands for some of our other vehicles. We were mopar or no car for quite a while but I guess those days are gone.
