I think the big question re these things is, are they being stolen? If even the thieving bastards won't take them, you know they're about worthless

There are some excellent lease deals on these. At least advertised. No one seems to be selling them for that though.

I doubt anyone would steal one considering that it will run out of battery before you can get away.

Sales might change when the Dodge Badassadors start influencing.

If it was on April 1st, I would have thought it was a joke.

So that's their new target market, eh? Nice, real nice.

Stopped by my local dealer today to schedule the spark plug recall on the 170. There was a R/T and a Scat Pack in the show room. They are H U G E cars. I mean massive.

Interior was pretty nice, but not wild about the square top steering wheel as mentioned. I don't mind "some" digital graphics but prefer analog gauges. Having said that the graphics were very sharp and crisp.

Can't say much else nice about it. I was reserving judgement on aesthetics until I saw one in person....don't care for it. Looks very bland shape wise, bad body lines, and for some reason a lot of wheel to fender gap making the suspension setup look like an after though. Did I mention how HUGE it is? Makes my 170 look like a compact car.

R/T was $70,XXX
Scat Pack "Stage 2" badging $89,XXX

What were they thinking.

God that’s just crazy expensive for a car no one asked for

This is exactly what it sounds like at a Dodge dealer these days.

I flat out hate that approach to gauges! The cluster in my Power Wagon is absolutely as far as I would take the combination of analog and digital/screen display. And for the radio, there better be an appreciable number of hard buttons around it too!

I am a fan of mechanical gauges - I usually settle for electric. The digital gauge pods showing a number only just don't seem right, I don't know why, but I always like the sweep type mechanical gauges.

Given a quality analog gauge, you can not only quickly determine the value, but also the relative position within the range without having to memorize the range.

If you have a digital readout, you're typically completely missing that secondary function of the value....


Digital output of 220F on oil? Fine, what's the acceptable values? 250F? 280F? 300F?

There are times when digital readout works, but really for me, it's the "Lets slap up a tablet" and call it good... Completely lazy, bullshit design. No thought, no character, and also, the last thing I want to be reminded of when I get in my car is another computer...

Idiots....
