As someone who had his Ram R/T egged weeks after he bought it, which in turn DID damage the paint.....DON'T EGG CARS. Horrible idea for a commercial.

I do too. I left him in when the guy I'm playing against left in Foles.

Muscle cars, to me, have always been Big motors stuffed into relatively small RWD cars on the cheap. The last gen Mustang was maybe the only late model car I'd put in the category...3600#s, 400+ HP, RWD, and you could get a GT for right at 30k. The Challenger is a pig, the Camaro is closer but still weighs more and…

Hey Matt, FWIW....even I've gotten emails of embargoed info from a company that rhymes with Chrysler.

BS Industries "The Real Thing" Mustang. I'm not a "Mustang Guy," but I love this car. Unibody converted to on-frame, ultra rare Boss motor that was originally slated for a Mario Andretti '69 Can Am car, and proportions tweaked to perfection.

I'm an idiot for not putting a "bid" in just for the publicity.

Looks more like a hot rod than a rat rod.

It may be limited edition, but they're making a 159 TAs and 50 Carbon cars...over 200 vehicles. I think they built around 800 cars last MY, so that's like a quarter right there. Not an insignificant amount, relatively speaking.

It's 20k to get the Viper, 5k for the tooling and training to sell/service SRT vehicles, right?

Can't get enough old Pistol Pete stories...

I'm not saying V8s get better mpgs than diesel. As a matter of fact, put a diesel in the Colorado that makes closer to the 240/420 that the eco-diesel makes and that would kick ass. And this 2.8 Duramax will be killer too, as long as the numbers are close to what they get overseas. But that's still down the road 2+…

What also equals bad mileage? Small motor in heavy vehicle? I already said that. V8 in a Colorado? Not necessarily. With the right gearing in a vehicle weighing 4,400-4,500lbs, a modern v8 will easily get mid 20s. And that diesel won't get those same numbers in the States.

The V8's demise is greatly exaggerated. I've got a 2009 Ram R/T. 400hp, 4.10 gears, shaped like a brick. 4800lbs. Runs 13s and still gets 22hwy. Put that motor in something that ways 400lbs less and is geared for mileage and you've got a winner.

I love everything about this. Especially the painting of a giant cat.

YES

Towards the end of it's life cycle the 4.7 in the Dakota was over 302/329. A 4,400-4,500 lb truck with a newer relatively efficient V8 or v6 ecoboost-like motor would easily get mid 20s at least.

Put a v8 in it. Little motors in heavy vehicles equal boring and inefficient.

He was originally suspended by Solich, then Callahan, then transferred to to Oregon and was kicked off by Bellotti. There's a trifecta....

A friend of mine that works at GM brought up the same point other commenters here have already mentioned: Remember what happened to this truck the last time they built it with an underwhelming engine? Power to weight has a huge effect on MPG. One of the reasons even old c5 vettes got 30+mpg. Small motors in small…

I've never seen this before. I was never a huge Z8 fan, but this concept is gorgeous. Like an old E-type Jag modernized a bit....but not too much.
