Yep, rolling brown outs. And just wait until the next drought or forest fire cuts electrical power.

Point me in the right direction if there is a thread on this already... Background to my question - the Demon 170's engine (I read, don't know much about HP and engine mods) senses both octane and percentage of ethanol and adjusts for the maximum safe power whatever mix of fuels is happening...

Updating this thread...Just watched Racer X's latest video on how often - and brazenly in broad daylight - our cars are being stolen. Carjacked, carted off with a truck lifting the rear end, broken into and put into neutral and pushed away, or the key fob code simply read right from the car's...

I try and identify the "value point" in any product's line up, whether within a brand's offerings or comparing brands. It takes effort, but unless you're made of money and don't care it is worth it. Take a look at the top model and decide if you really need all the features. Usually I don't...

Bull wrote: "I could easily make things last MUCH longer, but nobody was ever willing to pay for it." There are a lot of things some people would be willing to pay for - if they understood there was an option. I once asked a home builder why they didn't use stainless steel nails and screws on...

The video said only one other car, a race car, had a two speed transmission. Loved the ice cream truck video Jroyk posted - that's exactly the mind-numbling repeating kind of EV sound I had in mind as never wanting to hear on any EV, much less a "muscle" car. Given the instantaneous torque...

Lol! I didn't catch that he did that. Same video.

Couple of thoughts... The "exhaust" noise isn't horrible and might become something to appreciate if it is tweaked and reflects "throttle" and shifting of gears. It may be improved in the production cars. I've long thought EV cars need some kind of noise which pedestrians, and people in cars...

It is 15 minutes long and this video reflects many of our feelings, doubts, about the new EV Charger. But it also is a defense of the marketing decisions that led to the EV Charger. Worth a viewing, some thought, and might influence Bull's Poll.

And...drum roll, please...my UK 45 degree angled hex Allen wrenches FINALLY arrived. https://www.ebay.com/itm/183036366341 It was a second order because the first order, ordered on May 15th, sat in a Chicago warehouse for 40 days. I could see it got there from the UK. I queried the seller on...

I appreciate you posting the letter. Yep, I got that letter, but I have lost it somehow. When I spoke with both the Dodge Cares and then the Dodge Recall reps a couple of weeks ago (two different phone numbers) both reps told me, without further explanation, they didn't have the authority to...

I talked to both Dodge Cares and the Recall Dodge agents - and neither could regenerate my lost letter which I thought said these security updates are free of charge. I'm pretty sure they were said to be free of charge, and I found a post on another forum that said they were. As if that isn't...

I put my car up for winter at the end of November - and did the six month oil change dating from the previous May's oil change then. Drove probably 30 miles before putting it up on the lift. Today I did the mandated to keep engine warranty six month oil and filter change dating from last...

"When the government promotes crap there are renegades that will eventually take control over and actually make the vehicles work for us" When WOT is outlawed, only outlaws will have WOT. Or grandfathered high HP cars like ours. You can bet that not only drag racers and HPDE enthusiasts will...

You are correct - and I was confused about how this works so thank you for your reply. I should have done more homework before posting. Even my service manager was unsure last week of all the upgrade details and operating ramifications. If what follows is old news on the forum, well, I didn't...

My car is a 2019 model. Do later year models have a four digit code the driver has to punch into the UConnect to start? Did I read this extra step to start the engine code might be a settings option? Diboblo, are you saying what you said about fobs already being locked to the RF hub about...

There are two separate theft vulnerabilities to discuss regarding our radio frequency key fobs. The device that can start our cars without a key fob, and the device that can steal our key fob's code. I got the notification letter from Dodge telling me about this RFHM security upgrade a few...

You'll see the "we don't have Top Tier" notice when hell freezes over...or, in such small print you won't be able to see it *grin*!

Really fun riding along with you in that video! The displays are great. Who was in the black Challenger in front of you, and what was the model? That looks like a great course. Keep us posted on the error code and the fix.

I agree. Yesterday I ordered a set of what looks like 45 degree angled hex Allen wrenches from a UK Ebay website that contains an 8 mm wrench that will fit my 2019 Challenger's differential fill plug. It was $25 out the door - which included overseas shipping to Kentucky from England. My...
