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!

2013-14 Dodge Viper recalled over faulty door handles

Fri, Apr 10 2015

The 2013-14 Dodge Viper is getting a voluntary recall affecting 1,762 cars worldwide to replace their door-handle assemblies. Of the affected vehicles, FCA US reports there are 1,451 in the US, 160 in Canada, 17 in Mexico and 59 of them outside of NAFTA. After receiving three reports of doors either not closing or opening while driving a low speeds, FCA US engineers found a new sealant from a supplier didn't provide sufficient moisture protection to the electronic switches for the door latches. If the parts get wet, this can potentially cause a short circuit. The automaker is quite clear that are no reports of accidents of injuries from this problem. As always, the recall repairs will be done at no cost to owners, and FCA US will be getting in touch with customers soon about the problem.

FCA US launched an investigation after the Company received three warranty claims linked to doors that failed to close or opened inadvertently while vehicles were moving at low speed. The Company is unaware of any related injuries or accidents. Engineers determined a sealant, newly adopted by a supplier, provided inconsistent moisture protection to the electronic switches that control the door latches. Switches exposed to moisture may short-circuit. Affected are approximately 1,451 model-year 2013-14 Dodge Viper SRT cars in the U.S.; 160 in Canada; 17 in Mexico and 59 outside the NAFTA region. Affected customers will be notified and advised when they may schedule service, which will be performed at no cost. Customers with questions may call the FCA US Customer Information Center at 1-800-853-1403.

Stellantis and LG announce Canadian EV battery joint venture

Wed, Mar 23 2022

SEOUL — South Korean battery giant LG Energy Solution (LGES) said on Wednesday it plans to invest $1.5 billion to set up a joint venture with Stellantis in Canada. LGES owns 51% of the joint venture, tentatively named "LGES-STLA JV" and Stellantis owns 49%, LGES said in a regulatory filing. In October, LGES and Stellantis NV struck an electric vehicle (EV) battery production joint venture, targeting to start production by the first quarter of 2024 and aiming to have an annual production capacity of 40 gigawatt hours of batteries. In a separate regulatory filing, LGES said it plans to acquire a stake worth $542 million in ES America to respond to demand from EV startups in the United States. LGES is considering building a factory in Arizona to meet demand in the United States, two people familiar with the matter told Reuters, adding that the plant is expected to primarily produce cylindrical battery cells. LGES has its own factory in Michigan and two battery joint ventures with General Motors in Ohio and Tennessee. "We are considering a new production site, but nothing has been decided yet," said a spokesperson at LGES. LGES, which counts Tesla, GM and Volkswagen among its customers, currently has battery production sites in the United States, China, Poland, Indonesia and South Korea.
