I bet they only build about 2K of these cars. Management will screw something up so they dont happen.

I doubt a big company like Stellantis is gonna take any chances especially with the Volkswagon mileage debacle and others.

Everything the gubment gets involved with gets made worse with their meddling and this is no different. I drive my car 3-4,000 miles a year and I'd wager I have a smaller carbon footprint than the person driving a 50mpg car that drives 15,000 miles a year which is the average. We should be able to buy cars we want to buy.

I'd also wager there was meant to be a Redeye 170 and other models as well that all got canned. That's why their in the DC catalog now for power plants. Demon 170 was probably gonna be a 426 as well. Putting it on corn let it squeak by.

Way less than that....I'll be surprised it the US gets 1500 and probably 0 for Canada.

I noticed the "if" in what was being said by Tim. I think I got his name right?

You burn down your customer base when they'll all be gone in another 8 months anyway.

I bet there's maybe 2 people on this forum who would buy a performance EV.
Taking bets on who they are

I looked in to this recently actually, Obama put in Cafe Standards in 2012 that fleet avg had to be 54.5mpg by 2026. Trump rolled that all back to 37mpg to give some relief, and sleepy Joe put it back to 49mpg for 2026 as soon as he took office and as an added bonus bumped 2024 and 2025 averages 8% as well. That's why these cars have to be produced by 12/31.
Ah thanks
I remember Obama doing the 54MPG and thinking WTF is he doing?
Either way, if people don't buy then they bail out the car companies again.

After the next few weeks when large amounts of people realize they have little to no chance to get #7 without giving up their house
They will fall back to earth & order SS JB Red E etc
These cars are ALL very special
Once this happens the schedule will be a bit clearer
This is more about part supply issues then build issues

Brampton can build 5000 cars a week if they need too !!!
 


BULL

Oh NO! Not that guy!

He once said the car companies need to build cars that people want, and he was so smart he was going to help them do it. There is no limit to ignorance especially when you win popularity contests.

He is also angry at the demon situation in one of his latest videos.

Can't say I blame him, I lost out on multiple demons because dealers started talking to each other.

Even if your cc and buy a new car a month it doesn't matter. I hope he tells that dealership to get bent:mad:

Some people will screw you over for money on something and once the newness is gone will come back to you like nothing happened. Some of us remember:devilish:

If I was making sensible decisions with my money, I wouldn't even have the HC that I have now...
Sounds like a decision that made alotta sense if you ask me...(y)

Yeah, and if any of us were to truly consider the looming depression/recession/shit-show that is coming, we'd all be on the auction block with what we have now as well...


But screw it, you only live once, and I don't have many years left!

:)
I've never worried..(and still don't)...about pending doom and gloom...live today...tomorrow will take care of itself...;)

Well, as it would seem, fate is saving me from burning the money.
