Imagine, you're driving along on a Sunday afternoon. Everyone you look at is looking back at you. As you pull up to a stop light, someone in the coffee shop on the corner stands up wide-eyed, and mouths "Wow!", knocking over his fat-free latte in the process and shorting out his Macbook Air, which emits a pleasing curl of white smoke.  A group of coeds stream out from the book store opposite.  When they notice you, they let out a whoop, and one of them shimmies seductively.  The tall one, all blonde hair and attitidude, lifts her shirt before strutting off around the corner, hips-a-wiggling to the astonished cries of her friends.  The light turns green, you shift into gear, and ease away.  You can feel dozens of eyes still watching you, but as you ease your foot ever so slightly down on the accelerator, the unforgettable sight of a topless young beauty is suddenly forgettable.  The rear tires fight for traction as the needle on the tachometer hits 1500 RPM.  You're hardly on the gas, but the engine jumps to life and it's all you can do to keep the car in a straight line.  But you've got it.  You ease down your right foot a touch more, balancing the urge of the rear tires to break loose and your own urge to send your charge at full speed down the road ahead.   Within seconds you've shifted from first to second, then third, and now fourth, your shifts crisp and clean, as you marshal the relentless tug-of-war between the huge motor and the mammouth rear tires.  Now you're on the open road, 100 MPH a distant memory, but the faster you drive, the more the car sticks to the road.  There's no danger, because the other cars pull to the side in reverent gesture to the beast that has been unleashed on the road they are not worthy to share...

Ok, I did say imagine.  It might not happen exactly like that (editor's note, the preceeding dream sequence was performed on a closed road by a professional driver), but if you were the proud owner of a 2008 Snakeskin Green Viper Coupe, wielding 600 HP and 560 ft/lbs of torque, you might be surprised at what you see, trust me on that ;-) and what you can do.  If your dreams consist of heading over to Home Depot and loading up the family vehicle with a year's supply of mulch and spackle, you'd better have a VERY small yard if the vehicle in question is a Dodge Viper.  And chances are, it's lack of fold-down rear seat and hoseable trunk mats will have already put you off.  Alternatively, if your idea of a green car has nothing to do with the color of the paint, the Viper's 8.4L V10 might just raise a red flag or two on your econometer.  So, the Viper is a special car.  It isn't practical.  It has only one cup holder, and a trunk barely big enough to hold a magnum of Champagne.  It's tires are so wide, even if you were foolish enough to take it to a car wash, it wouldn't fit on the tracks.  When you climb into a Viper, you need an instruction manual and a deep breath.  When you climb back out again, you need a plan and asbestos pants.  But I can assure you, it is all worth it.  I've had my fun.  I need to save some money so I have at least a 10% chance of retiring before I keel over at my desk while telling someone, for the very last time, that I think they are on mute because I can't hear them.  So, please, take me out of my misery.  Give a guy a chance to live a little more.  Buy my car...go on..do it!

Chrysler recalls 1.2 million Ram pickup trucks

Sat, 09 Nov 2013

Chrysler has announced that it will issue three separate recalls that will cover as many as 1.2 million Ram pickup trucks for "steering-system tie rods that may have been misaligned during assembly or steering-system service." The vast majority of these trucks were sold in the United States, though some trucks in Mexico, Canada or overseas will be called in, as well.
The largest of the three recalls covers an estimated 842,400 model-year 2003-2008 Ram 2500 and 3500 trucks. Two smaller campaigns will bring 294,000 model-year 2008-2012 Ram 2500 and 3500 pickups, chassis cabs and 2008 Ram 1500 4x4 Mega Cabs; plus 43,500 model-year 2008-2012 Ram 4500 and 5500 4x4 chassis cabs into the dealer to be checked and repaired if necessary.
This is a very large recall, and Chrysler says it is "casting the net wider than necessary to identify those vehicles that require repair." The automaker estimates that "as many as 726,000 may not need repair."

Driving the Jeep J6, Shakedown Challenger and other Mopar concepts

Wed, Sep 11 2019

Mopar has been a one-stop-shop for factory-backed performance modifications and accessories on FCA products for a long time now. You want a 707-horsepower engine for your old Plymouth Belvedere? Mopar has you covered with the Hellcrate. Maybe you want a lift and off-roading lights on that newly-bought Wrangler? Mopar can accommodate those wants (or needs, we don’t judge) as well. We get to see some of the companyÂ’s weirdest creations every now and then, but rarely do we get the opportunity to drive the FCA Mopar concepts. ThatÂ’s what made this past Woodward Dream Cruise so special: We got to rip some of MoparÂ’s finest and most recent creations up and down Woodward Avenue. Everything from a 1971 Challenger restomod to the brand-new Easter Jeep Safari J6 concept was in attendance, so letÂ’s get right to it. Mopar Woodward View 6 Photos 1967 Plymouth Hellvedere This car is near the pinnacle of what you can do with off-the-shelf Mopar purchases. It was only a humble 1967 Plymouth Belvedere before Mopar dropped the 707-horsepower supercharged V8 from the Hellcat into the engine bay. Sound ridiculous? Yeah, it is. Other parts of it are new as well, including the disc brakes. Good call. However, Mopar didnÂ’t remove the classic car charm from the entire driving experience. The steering, for example, is surely as slow and inaccurate as it was back in 1967. That doesnÂ’t help matters when youÂ’re trying to put 707 horsepower to the pavement with less-than-ideal rear rubber. Floor it in damn near any gear of the Tremec six-speed, and the front end rises straight up as the rear kicks sideways with the force of many mules. There are no electronics such as traction control or stability control to step in and wrangle the car into submission. But hey, who wants them, anyway? The question remains: Should you buy a Hellcrate engine for your classic? If money were no object, the easy answer is yes. Have at it so long as you love smoky burnouts and excessive amounts of horsepower. Just make sure you know how to deal with that much power before you stick your right foot in it.   Dodge Challenger Shakedown View 15 Photos 2016 Dodge Shakedown Challenger Concept WeÂ’re going downhill in horsepower with this restomod, but the drivability and ease of driving goes way up. Dodge showed this “Shakedown” concept at SEMA awhile back, and as with most concept cars, getting a chance behind the wheel is a special opportunity.
