   ..And Ford is not alone.. All those corps who sucked up to the D-rats, are now having second thoughts !

  ..And now trhat Trump has recinded the D-rats plans on EVs..more will likely follow suit !

dodge is scrambling to get a gas charger out. they put all there nuts in one basket with ev chargers and there just not selling. problem with dodge/ram is theyre much smaller than ford and gm and there is a good chance they cant recover from this HUGE WOKE mistake. even with the gas one they want to get out theyve made a mistake throwing out the v8 (ram too) and relacing it with a turbo 6 and muscle car guys and most full sized truck buyers want a V8. rummors are theyre trying to create a new one but it will take at least a year and possibly 2 and its doubtful they can survive on bad year and surely not 2. another thing with the charger is most of the people that wanted v8s wanted challengers not chargers.

The problem with getting these indoctrinated college grads making marketing decisions for companies and governments is nobody buys their lunacy.

  Another problem may b,e because Dodge/Jeep is now owned by Stellantos, a European investment group..and they may not have an
  accurate picture of the American car/truck buyer.

they just hired Tim Kuniskis back. he was the push behind ram and the hellcat projects. hes a v8 man to the core. hopefully he will get them back on track. but i fear that its to late and they bought into the lib ev BS to deaply thinking the democrats would still be in charge. they werent in great shape to begin with and i dought they have the money to make a complete 360 quick enough to recover. ford and gm were in much better shape and it was much easier for them to eat the loss evs caused. pluss they didnt go all in like chrysler (or Stellantis)
