was introduced by Dodge in March 1978, following the release of such
self-proclaimed “adult toys” as the
Dodge Warlock. The Warlock had been essentially a
showy truck, with the fat tires, bucket seats, and wood trim: The L’il Red
Truck was to be the “Red Warlock,” but they changed the name along the way. Engineered for speed, the Little Red
Truck was built on the short-wheelbase (115 inch) Utiline-style half-ton D150
with a 6,050 pound gross vehicle weight, but the real attraction was the high
performance 360 V8
breathing through a four-barrel carburetor, pushing The L’il Red Truck used the standard
short-wheelbase stepside pickup, a relatively low-weight truck, and dropped in
the modded 360 V8 and A-727 transmission with a 2500 stall converter. The twin
stacks were a good 2.5 inches in diameter; the rear axle was a 3.55 Sure Grip,
and the Goodyear’s were GR60 in front and a generous LR60 in the rear, — not
tall, but wide. Front wheels were 15x7; rear wheels were 15x8. |

Explore Dom's 1970 'off-road' Dodge Charger from Furious 7
Fri, Apr 3 2015The Aficionauto, Christopher Rutkowski, already drove Dom's 1970 Dodge Charger from Fast & Furious and Fast Five. Now he's returning to the franchise for an interview with Dennis McCarthy, the vehicle coordinator on the last five Fast and Furious films, plus a close look at the custom off-road Charger that's one of the automotive stars in Furious 7. Given his resume, when McCarthy admits this is his new all-time favorite vehicle from the franchise, it really means something. Don't worry. McCarthy is careful not to spoil any of the film's action while he shows off the Charger and Shaw's fast attack vehicle that takes on the Dodge. McCarthy does reveal the one car that he still dreams to build for the series, and it's something that every fan should see. This looks like a fantastic blockbuster movie season for anyone that loves to watch cars crash and explode on the big screen. Furious 7 is in theaters right now, and based on the trailer, it promises the biggest stunts ever from the long-running franchise. And in just a few weeks, Mad Max: Fury Road hits cinemas to add a dystopian tinge to the automotive action.

2013 Dodge Charger SRT8 Super Bee
Tue, 12 Mar 2013I can pinpoint the exact moment when I fell in love with this car. It was starting down a nearly straight entrance ramp at 15 miles per hour when I buried the throttle. In a moment, I was thrown back into my seat as the big SRT8's engine came to life with commensurate sound, fury and force, bringing me up to 75 mph in what felt like two blinks of an eye. This thing feels so much quicker than its 470 horsepower and 470 pound-feet of torque would lead you to believe. And mashing the right pedal never, ever gets old.
But beyond sheer speed, I found a whole lot to like about the Charger SRT8 during my week with the Pitch Black test car here in Detroit. And while the whole Super Bee kit isn't really my style, it's really easy to overlook those badges for a package that offers so much for so little.
