Exactly, so long as you are looking at the 99+ Prowler. Once the revised V6 appeared in 1999, the Prowler kept up with other V8 muscle cars of the day because Plymouth made a lot of use of aluminum and did a good job keeping the weight down; it just didn’t have the V8 rumble. Look at the performance numbers and…

Mainly because it offers no discernable benefit over a traditional 1/2 ton pickup.

I don’t know what the wait time is for one, but the most basic R1S is right inline range/performance wise with the most basic Model X now, while being $12k cheaper. R1S seems comparatively like a much better SUV and way better value. $12k will buy a lot of front tires after all.....

Not only that, the revised V6 that came in 1999 kept up with other V8 muscle cars of the day because Plymouth made a lot of use of aluminum and did a good job keeping the weight down; it just didn’t have the V8 rumble. Look at the performance numbers and pricing, the Prowler was actually pretty competitive.

How much insanity would there be right now if there was a Magnum today in any of the trims Scat Pack and above?

Me: No way is a Renegade or Compass over $28k.....

I always thought Subaru was the prime candidate for electrification from a marketing perspective. Their powertrains have never really been all that competitive in their volume sellers and more recently started to lag behind the competition when it comes to a power/efficiency/reliability standpoint; so why cling to…

No idea. I’d imagine they probably get up to temp faster and helps when it comes to cold start emissions regulations. But I can’t imagine it being that much different when it comes to steady state as most modern cars have a cat that is already pretty dang close to the engine. But I’m just guessing so I could be 100%…

Manifolds with cats already exist and they SUCK. They are harder to replace, more expensive, and typically used for a reason (usually tight packaging or needing them to be as close to the engine’s exhaust outlet as possible for heat/emissions reason) which often makes them even more difficult to replace.

The Sienna? Really? I mean, I get that it’s a fuel efficient Toyota, but it’s also the worst minivan of the bunch solely because the middle row isn’t removeable. Honestly, get a Pacifica if you want luxury or hybrid, Odyssey if you want Japanese reliability, or Carnival if you want a something different and stylish.

You mean reusing an existing chassis and throwing an ugly & overweight body on it is better than a bespoke & lightweight chassis with a pretty cool looking & light-ish body? Sure, I get that the V6 is a bit disappointing, but Chrysler had no good V8 options and a V8 would have ruined the look when you factor in crash…

Kind of related, Howdy Holmes who runs Jiffy (like the corn bread mix) used to drive in CART and the Indy 500. Plus, his name sounds like it’s out of a comic book.

Ever since the current Ram 1500 came out, I’ve dreamed for a lowered 392 powered one. Honestly, a pickup version of a Charger Scat Pack would have been an awesome DD.

Am I the only one who thinks it doesn’t sound very good for a VR? A stock R32 sounds better, let alone one that’s been warmed over.

lot of coin for a Pickup without an 8 ft bed

So where are these similar condition OBS Chevy’s for cheaper?

Isn’t this more inline with a Defender than the Disco, especially now considering there is the Defender 130?

The hate for (reasonably sized and quality) spacers is way overblown here.

Not only did they build them forever (about 40 years)

The proportions look really bad. The base of the windshield and rear window seem really high for a luxury sedan. The roof seems really narrow. The amount of metal above the top of the wheels is.... incredible. It’s not hideous, but it almost seems like someone tried to build a BMW on top of some FWD CUV platform, the…
