Bob Lutz should have been chairman of Chrysler instead of Bob Eaton. Lee Iacocca picked the wrong man. Daimler 2.0. The Europeans have no clue what to do with cars born with a US heritage. They don’t respect the product for one. The Japanese got Nissan back from the clutches of Renault. Chrysler as we knew it is dead. Jeep might be the sole survivor. It don’t look good. One of my co workers jokenly said “there’ll be no Dodge in my garage “ I took a bit of offense to that then. It’s getting to be a good statement now.

Let's not forget our forefathers drove WITHOUT seat belts. Safety is what you make it. And i know if anyone responds they will say "but cars didn't go as fast then" IT DOESN'T MATTER.

Stallantis is junk and there dealerships are the most dishonest disgusting crooks on the planet

Always enjoy your content...thanks folks!

True on so many levels!!!

I own a muscle car from another company. While it's being repaired at a shop I was given a rental car. There wasn't much to choose from at the time I got the rental, and I ended up getting an electric car as my rental. I was pleasantly surprised by how fast and smooth it accelerates, and how quiet it is while doing so. I thought the next time I'm in the market for a new car I'd want the best of both worlds. There is not a lot to currently choose from when it comes to electric sports cars (especially reasonably priced ones) , and when I saw that Dodge had plans to come out with an electric Charger that not only performs like an electric car while looking like a muscle car (while having good storage space) I thought I'd found what's likely to be my next car purchase. After hearing about Tim's leaving I am left wondering if the car will see the light of day, how the plans for the car could change (potentially not for the better), and what the future may look like for it. I hope the electric Chargers do come out, and are successful. Contrary to what what some might say (aka: those who have never driven an electric, those who have never driven a muscle car, and those who live where gas isn't ridiculously expensive) there very much is a market for electric sport and muscle cars. (I'm one of them).

A cat trend that needs to die is ever inceasing car prices

My 07 S4 does over 175 mph with normal door handles. Unless it's a 200+ mph hypercar, there's no excuse for stupid door handles. Haptic buttons and massive iPad screens just prove it's cheaply made no matter what it costs.

bad yap

Kia and Hyundai not on the list, very surprised 😂

Nothing can make a Ferrari ugly😂.

Kinda copied carwows vid

The stop/start should be personal preference not automatic. Please!

I remember the bean shape showing up in the 80's with two models, Ford Tauruses and Audi midsize sedans....unless you want to go back to the mid 30's Chrysler Air flow or a little later to the Tucker (that's a reach though)

Air Conditioning and Radio 📻 controls on the infotainment screen in the Summer. Are no good. The heat makes them black and glitches. You have wait until it gets cold. Then on a red light turn off the car then turn it on to have those controls. It kept me away from the 2024 S650 Mustang. Prefer nobs buttons and / or switches. The LiDar Sensors turns on and tries to steer away into slower lane and slows down the car going into a roundabout freeway entrance. Self drive fails when the Sensors and Cameras are obscured by bugs splatter, bird dropping ( beaches ) ⛱️ road grime or tar

Thanks management.

Other car trends that need to die: making everything an EV, killing it off because you can't make it an EV, and making everything a stupid crossover. We all hate this. Sincerely, everyone.

Sensor boxes integration isn't a sensor issue. It's a design issue. Lots of cars have the hidden behind the logo. Lazy/poor integration is a design and engineering issue, not a sensor issue.

Stellantis needs to sell CDJR back to an American company.

In 2004 I bought a new fully optioned Civic VI hatch MY04....even had built in full-on infotainment including Sat/Nav, (a real rarity in 2004) I sold it 14 years later with 310,000 kms on the clock. Replaced brake pads, tyres, timing belts and a battery but, the only thing that actually broke in that times was.....one headlight globe!! I sold it in 2018 and 17 months later the guy who bought it from me sent an email saying it had clocked up 400,000Kms and it was still running just like new! On selling it I replaced it with a 2014 Civic Hatch VTI-LN, once again fully optioned. That has now done 200,000 Kms, doesn't use any oil between regular services and nothing has broken down on it. I agree the transmission is not well suited to the 1.8 Lt motor but the paddle shifters make it a pleasure to drive. For me there is no other vehicle I would consider in my life than a Honda and it saddens me to watch this video.

BMW? Tell me you're getting money from manufacturers without telling me you're getting money from manufacturers 🤣

When it became "Made in USA" this is the reason why it's now unreliable

TLDR: Japanese cars No need to use German cars as clickbait

I like the Honda Element for having 'character'. The rest of them seem rather looking like other sedans or SUVs.

1.8t Nevr Loose.

Every time the brand has changed ownership, the brand itself dies a little.

I will bet the Chinese will wind up with the company all thanks to Carlos Tavares. I have never owned anything but Chrysler/RAM and Jeep, including my 2023 Grand Cherokee Summit Hemi, of which I am very happy with. That said, CDJR needs to come back to American Ownership, and possibly Elon Musk would be my choice. We went through the Nazi debacle with Chrysler (Daimler/Mercedes), then the Satanists (Cerberus), then the Italians, and now the FROGS (French), and I am of French ancestry and I am certainly not bragging.

What's depressing is having to pay $40K for a four banger. No thanks. $2000 off of $40000 is 5%. That's chicken feed.

CVTs are the worst inventions ever. To think that Honda made the Acura Legend. Evidently they've fallen off the cliff in terms of reliability.

So did everyone forget how reliable the Lexus LS is?

05:20 they also have the turbo V6 if you get the Type S

I’d still buy a Toyota or a Lexus and trust it

Automakers seem desperate to make car ownership as unenjoyable as possible. They are far to expensive and all seem to be low quality. Pure money pits. More and more young people are holding off learning to drive for as long as possible and some all together. And there is growing desire for alternatives besides private cars. Like the walkable city, biking, buses, etc. Its all small now. But if automakers dont slash prices and lower their profits they might create a future where they dont exist because they have made the process so miserable. I really love my car but I have seen so many young peoples life on hold because they cant afford any car in todays world. They are stuck at some low end job and struggle to claw their way out. Cars are such wealth drains.

I can't even believe these quoted prices. They're not worth it at any price. Those who think so are simply waiting for the prices to fall further.

Why showing all the high end vehicles with insane MSRPs?

You just need to dodge that DODGE!!

Dodge never agin and i called the company and told them why😢

CVTs are garbage but the 1.5T has poor architecture making it relatively structuraly weak engine compared to its predicessors. Add that to all the complaints of been hearing from owners of the SI having weak clutches and inadequite radiators and intercoolers resulting in only getting full power for a matter of seconds before it power dies off because it needs time to cool.

U are delusional dodge products have sucked for a long time unreliable junk

Because Brazil, India and Morocco make such high quality vehicles

Vw/audi no. Subaru if you get lucky or drive like a grandma. Even subarus new engines leak oil all over because of cheap RTV sealant used and boxers always fall flat on efficiency. Half this list is kind of bad. Even the acura and nissan shown were known for fragile transmissions.

msrp is 20% too high so a few grand off is meaningless

Nobody wants a 40k subaru Thats not a great deal

Stunned at the kid gloves treatment shown to toyota. If this were general motors, folks would be seeking the death penalty for executives along with non stop bashing. If you want to cut toyota some slack so be it, but remember that the next time some American company has multiple simultaneous issues.

Honda has always been way overrated. Their inception into America was highly hyped just like Toyota and Datsun. The only real advantage for sells were their gas mileage.

These are trade in numbers not no selling prices lol

If he signed a NDA, then it is an illegal hush money transaction and needs to be prosecuted

Two words as of recent. Oil. Dilution.

You lost me at BMW X-5.

You know I thought the Chargers and and challenges they were selling in the horsepower awesome but what the dealerships were allowed to do to the client base was more than criminal and the corporate should have took care of it right away there's no reason for the demon I whatever it is 170 one dealership marking it up 200,000 over MSRP repeat customers that's how you you rewards me that's giving you business I don't know what the f*** they were thinking but every dealership that did that and play that game they they should be a database for people shopping for cars so they know not to go to them and that's how they should be rewarded
