Don't lump me in with them. I'm an enthusiast of mechanic design, be it engines, weaponry, or productive machinery. Not a guy with a wrench that reads the marketing garbage AFE/insert other "enthusiast" brand that can't legally warranty half of their products.

 

I fail to see a correlation between people screeching variations of "forced induction is more efficient!!! Reclaimed energy!!!" and anything I've said.

If you can't be civil. Please leave

 

Edit. That goes for everyone in the thread

She wants a 4 door quite badly, but doesn't have her heart set on one. We'll just have to see how things play out

Yep. 430hp 6.1L hemis!

 

IIRC the Magnum SRT8 got the same engine, though those are a bit more rare.

Or @RevoltTrain SRT8 300

 

Possible, but unlikely, when she goes American 9/10 times she will go GM. Just how she was raised. She has owned a single Ford and loved it, but that was also 20 years ago, don't know how likely something non Chevy from the US would be. Elsewise she'd probably just go Mustang and call it a day even though it's a 2 door.

 

She said she'd prefer a 4 door but a 2 door wouldn't be out of the question

@AlwaysFSX Kinda like the SRT10 Rams

Never knew there were SRT8 versions of the 300. The Rams were pretty cool though.

It'll be interesting to eventually see what she goes with. But it won't be for a little while, and at the end of the day it's her decision. It's her money, her vehicle, and at the end of the day, her choice

Some asshole in a lifted pickup truck was tailing me (bumper to bumper) with his xenon headlights in the brights setting. Couldn't see out of my rear or side view mirrors. Why would you buy a truck that big then lift it just for use in the suburbs? (rant over)
