Surprised for a 440 that it only has a 4-barrel carburetor? Probably the first mod the buyer will make is put in at least a 6-pack.

Yeah ..; any Mopar with the Daytona spoiler goes for big $$$!

Yeah, now that you mention it, it should be a 6-pack. If you have one in Petty blue, with a 426 Hemi, you have the apex of Mopar's. If I were an investor, I would want the Hemi, but for light to light street drag racing, and lightin' up the tires, a 440 6-pack is the way to go.

That is crazy. It almost feels fake, between the lack of details in the news story, the absolute perfect timing, and the lack of reaction from everyone else. Especially those guys on the left - just standing there.

That is a good looking ride. I wonder if they'll be throwing their hats into the La Mans ring soon.

Looks like the adoption of electric vehicles isn't going according to various Governments' plans.. Pity the English!

Pity the rest of the world who is being subjugated to this too!

I know I have no intentions of buying an EV, or any car for that matter, until I absolutely need to. And the article seems to show I'm in the majority. Which means that with less demand, that's one less reason for car manufacturers develop efficiencies which could reduce the costs of EVs. Which again makes them less attractive for the masses to adopt them before they are literally forced to.

Governments were quick to make the commitment to force EVs on us, but no commitment to make the forced change at least comparable to the cost of current car ownership. Imagine being told that you have to upgrade to a new iphone 20 (or whatever they're on right now), even though you don't want one, nor really are able to afford one, and are perfectly happy with the phone you have right now.

Holy crap! "The average amount financed dropped slightly from a year earlier but remained above $40,000 for the fifth straight quarter at $40,356. That compares with the year-earlier quarter of $40,602." - regarding the purchase of new vehicles in the US. My 2008 Honda Accord LX listed for $20,995, and my 2004 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra listed for $35,200. (paid less for both, though!)

I've seen this from other car manufacturers, not just Ram. Dumb design choice.
