A bit off topic so forgive me, but they really helped me. the right rear brake was squeeling on my new Scat Widebody with less than 2kmiles. It was horrible. Dealer said "mechanically they are fine" and would not do anything. They opened a case and authorize a full replacement (at a different dealership of course). In my opinion they are good people. Not Resume Speed mind you, but good nonetheless.
Don't get me wrong. I'm glad they're here and at least telling members to contact them regarding problems, I'm just surprised to see it. If this is turning a corner for them in the customer support role, that's awesome.

Seems like they have reps in all of the forums now! Also I am glad to see the online chat customer service too, which has been able to track my ordered car for me all through the process......now they still have 1 weak point there that I can see so far.....no real tracking for shipping. Once it leaves nobody can tell you shit until its on the last leg of delivery to dealer status.....that's crazy when Amazon can show you in real time on a map with GPS where your packages are while they are being tracked lol I would think this would be good for dealerships too for being staffed up on a big delivery day to have accurate tracking info in real time not just customer orders....

Same here, I almost feel like answering it now, but I guess I can wait for one more day.

I was looking over the remaining answers, just in case there was some hidden answer that we were missing. Seems like we're all very close to our proposed answer, but not exact. There was one that seems to be theoretically correct; More Horsepower than the Dodge 2019 line up combined. I believe that to be a true statement, although its not an exact answer.

Maybe there are more than one correct answer to Goose the number of people in the drawing to draw more attention to it. The first car had 3,000 entrants which seems very small to me....

Really, only 3,000? That's not a whole lot of people. Better odds for us; as long as they go to true Enthusiasts I guess.

Run it with 4000 as the curb weight (which it is not) see what you come up with.
I played with weight variables using the weights I found online, but settled on the Dodge weight. The variation was small, and my calculation is within <1% of an answer I've been watching. I gonna pull the trigger after I run the calcs one last time as a sanity check.

I should've paid more attention in math class....
