    Cummins $1.6 billion dollar fine!!!

    Its political, it was the EPA making the announcement on the evening last Friday the 22nd while everybody was getting ready for Christmas, this is another case of incoherent people who believe in unicorns making impossible mandates to the point where OEM's have to develop certain tactics in...

    Ram 1500 EV is questionable if it makes it to market

    Here's a video of a Rivian towing a 10K lbs load, talk about great torque, it did 0-60 mph in 12 seconds, powers not the problem, the temperature was hovering near freezing, he was towing 10K lbs, he got 100 miles out of a full charge, so he lost 2/3's of his range, the video also shows the...

    Ram 1500 EV is questionable if it makes it to market

    After the disaster with Ford 150 Lightning, Ford is basically putting the brakes on all of their EV line, GM's Mary Bara has changed the release of their Silverado/Sierra 3 times in 60 days, and now GM says its going to be 2025 maybe?, their 1500 line was supposed to be released last September...

    How's This for Interesting ;)

    Make sure the guy pays two months up front, he may not have a job in the future, CEO Carlos Tavares hates EV's, he just puts up with them because of government cash and mandates, this guy has no problem killing the EV 1500, if Ford and GM do it, and between the lines it sounds like they will...

    E-Torque Start Stop VS Bearings

    Sorry for the late reply, I didn't see the question, I always reply to questions asked, my bad, Salt seats is the color option offered on the seats, not to forget, this is the way its listed in Canada, there is blue trim with a off white centers, they call it salt, I like the color combination...

    Interesting take on an EV in Quebec (copied from another post)

    Ford and GM are having second thoughts on EV's, most likely Stellantis is also, the automakers are covering their asses on the losses their about to take by demanding government grants they claim is for battery research and EV production costs. This is not the market building upon supply and...

    New Revolution revealed

    Ive been watching updates on trucks from all makers, Im waiting to see real life range s and performance, one thing that caught my eye was GM's Sierra Denali EV, it has air suspension, I see it as a good thing as you will only have to run on your bump stops at half the range in the cold, maybe...

    No I didn't make it up, why would I, do some more research, not some single dealer, let me make it easier for you, go on Auto Trader, the dealers are listing plenty they cant dump.

    Lease the Battery and own Half the Truck/Car?

    I thought this subject was worthy of its own thread: Instead of letting the market handle EV's, enviro whack jobs in governments decide its best to force these things to market, they did it with wind turbines and solar panels, hows that working out keeping the grid up, it's been a colossal...

    Careful if you want RAM EV, it maybe more expensive than you think

    Its all about batteries and insurance, currently insurance companies are still rating EV's, nothing is set yet, you will get insurance on that shinny new EV, but get ready for an insurance shocker in the future, many EV batteries cant be fixed after even a minor accident. This is a cut and...

    Negotiating Ram Connect price

    Did you try the "I quit, too expensive" route on them, cell phone carriers usually jump back with a better offer especially if wanting to move to other carrier. I went through the privacy policies and thinking they're way over the top gathering data, I have my own privacy policy, and thats to...

    Theft is on the rise

    If you've never seen this before, here is a video in how the car thief gets your keyfob information while outside of your house, and thats why you need to protect your keyfob with a faraday sleeve or box, besides tinfoil, aluminum window screening works great, wrap your cell phone in it and...

    E-Torque Start Stop VS Bearings

    Yes you are correct, its nothing but a burden if you don't use it, in my case Im living in the country, its highways and rural roads, it will do absolutely nothing for me, I cant speak for everyone else, but I don't want to pay for something expensive that will give me zero benefit.
