  • 2011 Dodge Durango

    Ability and feasibility aren't always harmonious. The former is usually in greater supply than the latter; denial and enabling fill the void. Final words before epic fail often go, “I’d be a fool not to do this,” “What could possibly go wrong?” or the two most potentially painful words on the subject, “Trust me.” Will Ralph Gilles, Chrysler SRT division president and CEO, boldly say any of the above regarding a possible 2013 Dodge Durango SRT8? Maybe, according to Inside Line. He hasn’t yet, though sources suggest it’s on the table. Little...

    Is The Dodge Durango Really The Standard Bearer For American Performance?

    Performance does seem to be under threat of regulation into non-existence sometimes, what with 54.5 mpg CAFE standards, the anthropogenic global warming crowd, and even our own wallets asking us if we really need all that horsepower and speed every time we head to the pump. But is an SUV really the...

  • 2011 Dodge Challenger 392 HEMI

    In the recently-released film The Dilemma, Vince Vaughn's character, Ronny Valentine, and his best friend Nick (played by Kevin James), run an automotive supplier business that has to create a "sound-alike" system for hybrid-powered muscle cars. Using a 2011 Dodge Charger as the guinea pig, the duo tries to give the fictional hybrid-electric sedan the sound and feel of a Hemi-powered unit. Dodge sells no such Dodge Charger Hybrid, of course, although a Chrysler 300 Hybrid is said to be on the way for 2013. In the movie, our fictional duo uses amplifiers and sound systems--but the hybrid part...
