  1. Yes exactly. I thought so about Hyundai and KIA being in a better place to withstand US tariffs. I am niot so sure though, if they could compete with an onslaught of cheaply priced Chinese EVs. The US car market is one thing, but the Chinese OEMs will flood the WORLD with their cheaply priced EVs. And eventually, these EVs will make it to US shores, tariffs or not. But by that time, I fear a US civil war. 25% tariffs on aluminium alone is said to cost 100 000 US jobs https://www.reuters.com/markets/commodities/alcoa-warns-trumps-aluminum-tariff-could-cost-100000-us-jobs-2025-02-25/ https://www.theglobeandmail.com/business/article-alcoa-warns-100000-us-jobs-at-risk-urging-tariff-exemption-for/#:~:text=American aluminum giant Alcoa Corp,tariffs on shipments from Canada. Dont forget that Canada will have retalitory tariffs. And those will be targetted to Red States. And dont forget that Europe will strike with some sort of economc stresses of its own ON the US if Trump targets MORE European targets. 25% tariffs on some raw materials ALSO target Europe. NOT only Canada... The MAGA voters, as MUCH as they follow the cult leader Trump, some of them WILL turn on him. And those mouth breathers own guns. LOTS of them. What will Trump do? Attempt to take those away from them/ Eithr way, I see lots of doom and gloom...

  2. I too, feel like the Charger EV is DOA. I am not even sure if the inline 6 will be any more of a seller either. At this point, since Tavares quit and he was the one opposed to the V8s, yeah, it wouldnt be a bad idea to shoehorn a Hellcat one in now. We laugh at that, because its that absurd, but it is what has made Dodge a comeback the last 15 years. And its the Hellcat engine that has made Stellantis money hand over fist. While an inline 6 twin turboed to make 500 some odd horsepower in the Charger would make it a fantastic muscle coupe and sedan, the mouth breathers that buy these things want their V8 Hemis. Let it be known that I am NOT a mouth breather as I breathe through my mouth heavily, LITERALLY, every time I sees a V8 Challenger... I am talking about the OTHER mouth breathers out there of course...

  6. Agreed. All the low cost cars are made in Mexico, the Civic, Rav4 and CRV are made in Canada so you hit 3 of the best sellers hard. Stellantis is screwed for sure, they have a lot of Canadian production and they already have a price problem. GM and Ford will be weakened when the dust settles. And the Chinese will be the winner, I doubt any of the legacy car companies will be able to hold them off. I just read today how Porsche is struggling in China because their cars lack the tech and performance of some of these Chinese EV's. If Porsche who builds great cars is falling behind, what chance does Nissan, Ford or Chevy have?

  7. Stellantis in North America is done fer, tariffs or not. Ford and GM are almost done when those tariffs hit and are going to be done if those tariffs last a year long. All other OEMS that build their cars in Mexico to sell in the US are going to have a rotten year as well. At least Europeans will stick together and try to screw the US and thiose European OEMS will have a fightin' chance to survive. The real winner will be Chinese car makers and their EVs. They WILL flood the world market when the tariff war ends...

  8. When the Charger EV fails hard which I suspect it will, will they offer a Hellcat version to try to get back buyers?

  9. Just imagine a Jeep Compass with an extra 25% tariff on it. Sounds like a sales winner.

  11. Gas prices have gone up a little in the US this year but once the tariffs go into place and summer fuel blend and summer demand come in, I am sure gas prices will shoot up.

  13. So this is just so maddening as how they cannot seem to see the waste is beyond me due to their personal hatred of EV over ICE. General Services Administration Shuts Down 8,000 EV Chargers, Offloads EVs Pulling out the installed EV chargers at all the Federal buildings and parking lots to be scrapped and the disposal of the EV fleet replaced with new ICE autos is such a waste of Taxpayers money.

  14. I honestly thought this was the dowdiest model of the 1997-2004 BOP sedans, especially in Century form with wheel covers. (The LaCrosse was such an improvement - both in looks and the Series III engine - replacing Century and Regal.) The Regal did benefit from the sloped back grille. It rode well. However, the big rear taillight assembly under the lip was oversized and the dashboard was boring for that entire stretch of years. I would have babied that car though, in that span of years, only the Intrigue appealed to me ... still beautiful from almost vantage points and in a timeless way.
