Updates are based on the competition and competition plus pricing looks like they have bank account information (using 7th 8th or 9th sense) for people who may want to buy

Probably sound like a Tesla with the AC fan spooled up on a 110 degree day. That sounded about like a 1980s diesel the other day when I walked past one.

According to a former MOPAR technician, " re-ignited performance & cycle". If I remember correctly, he gave up YT. He stated that the HP version had way heavier duty internals than the standard version. I don't know which version is in the truck. Stellantis is bringing back the Hemi! They apologized and said that they messed up by pulling it off the market! I wish Toyota would do the same.

I may be a “boomer” (I’m 32) but I’d rather have a slower V8.

Ashame they let the hemi die. Engine has been completely unchanged since 2009.

Brave new world!

Agreed.
If you're a boomer then I better make my way to a home once I hit 40

Where did you read the Hemi's coming back??? You can get either the standard or HP version based on what model RAM you buy.

I think it was Tim on Pickup truck & SUV talk. I watch a lot of videos and I don't always pay attention to which ones had a given point. Anyway, the one I watched showed a Stellantis representative saying that they were wrong in discotinuing the Hemi. The demand and feedback changed their mind and Stellantis was going to offer it again. The article seemed legit.

Hopefully they will understand that people bought the LX/LD platform cars because of the motors. A challenger with a 6 cylinder/charger no matter how fast will not box check the people that buy them.

A family member just bought one. I will say they remind me of a much more refined Crown Vic with uncalled for amount of power. Not the fastest cars in the world by any means but very cool to drive. Very “old school” which is right up my alley.

They're starting to look like a Honda too. For some reason I just see Ridgeline in the front. I have had Rams for the last 10 years. They do nothing for me anymore. They do have a nice interior though

Are you talking about that shitty car from the 70's? My parents had one in the 80s. I think it weighed 5000 pounds and had a 400 cu inch motor producing a whopping 175hp. Lol. I was 10 and able to move it to play basketball.
