These stage kits will be available when they can travel backwards in time! Too many brain dead in government.

Only so many Dodge things to talk about. Pretty soon it will be down to, what's the biggest tire will fit my car?

Agree 100% that is exactly why Stellantis doesn’t deserve the brand name anymore. Change my Mind!

Only they have the power to do it and I don’t expect they will.

It is so sad what has happened to Dodge since Stellantiis. Top of the world to woke joke.

People are actually starting to realize what is going on, look at the wackos Woody Haroldson and Tim Robbinson. If these guys are starting to see what is going on, maybe the ignorant masses will follow? Maybe these woke joke corps will be left holding their bag?

(Misspellings were intentional!)

It’s too bad. Totally would have jumped on these had they seen the light of day. Why even bother with CARB compliance? Just release them.

There were a number of us on the TRX forum hoping/begging for a kit for our trucks. A lot of us over there would have paid big money for a factory backed tune that didn’t impact our warranty.

Interesting concept but why not chase every dollar both future platform and existing.The R&D has already been done for existing and Stage Kits unless they knew they wouldn’t get CARB certification and it was marketing ploy all along. If they were truly financially focused why not chase the buck. They are in a particularly awkward situation trying to keep their existing base.
I will go out on a limb with this one by saying it would not surprise me one bit if the deal has been verbally cut then official certification appears along with Stage Kit for the leprechaun reveal.

You have more faith in them than I ever will. They're getting billions in taxpayers money for the creation of the EV. I'm sure that it's linked to discontinuing the "non-green" part of the business.


Car makers learned during rona that they can make more money building less cars.

For some this performance gain with warranty is very important. For others not so much. I get it.

Right again Dave. But watch how quick they do hybrid if the electric gig doesn’t pan out the way their marketing pie charts and graphs predicted. Electric trans with ice integration has been developed probably as a back up and didnt they claim the new platform could possibly be made ICE, Hybrid, or fully electric? They are focused on one one thing $$$$ and will chase it no matter what.

Stellantis has hedged a bet and set the direction. Just glad I have what I like before the American pie goes away.

I have to wonder why they decided that their first EV would be a $100k muscle car that appeals to no one. Ya think maybe they know they cannot compete with the other consumer EV’s (Tesla, Ford, etc.) so they intentionally focus on a different market segment? I just received an email offering Ram’s for 6% below invoice. I am looking at F150’s and F250’s, and the Ram offer is very tempting, but I have to wonder about the future health of Dodge/Ram, and this crap does not offer confidence.

Unless things change, I think that I'm done.

I’d like to see that email
looking at trucks to buy.

Plus we're really good at derailing threads, where we're not even sure of the original topic!
Speaking of which I miss Crissy on All Girls Garage!!
