For what you paid you could've gotten a fullsize

MY MY that looks devilishly delicious!!!

 

it would have the 6.4L 475 horse hemi and AWD. Not bad to drive to the grocery store!

 

Only 475? With the new E63 and M5 getting over 600, they need to up their game

 

hahaha I bet. A lot of engineers/professionals for the Big 3 (mostly ford and GM, FCA is on the opposite side of town) live in the same city as me. SRT GC, hellcats, mustang GT350, Raptors, etc are pretty common.

 

they would start approaching hellcat engine territory if they did that

 

475 NA power.

 

Luck you!!!!!

 

Are hellcats ever going in jeeps ?

 

i heard that the jeep will be offered with the hellcat engine.

i had a rental 2015 challenger with the v6. I must say i was very impressed. That car runs a 14 sec something 1/4 mile and was a blast to drive. Got 27 mpg hwy and around 20 city for me. Not to mention comfortable and fit and finish of interior was great which is saying a lot compared to chrysler past vehicles

 

In the GC? Yes in Q3 2017.

The new Wrangler is supposed to be debuted this coming Detroit Auto show in January. no engine options have been confirmed yet.

 

I don't know about the Challenger, but at the LA auto show last month, I sat in 3 charger hellcats. The interior quality was atrocious with panel gaps and huge swaths of plastic dash. It looked like a 15K car and not a 60K car. YMMV

 

Heard the new Wrangler will have the diesel..no?

 

A few test mules were spotted with diesels, I'd say they're coming out with one.

My buddy has a 6 Speed Hellcat Challenger, it is very nice!

 

True, I remember back when I was a kid and my dad had a Chevy Luv... and my very first vehicle which was a 1986 Chevy S10. Those were tiny compared to today's trucks.

 

My Dad had an 85 like this one when I was learning to drive. Man, that thing was fun... 4cyl, manual transmission (4speed, I think), lightweight, basic and indestructible. Crank windows, AM/FM radio, no A/C and only 3 gauges -- speed, fuel and temp. We'd put 4 old-school snow tires on painted black steelies on it in the winter and it would go just about anywhere. (and look cool doing it). I think dad paid $7200 for it new. I wish Toyota still offered something basic like this.

 

From 1985 to 2004 not much had changed

Here is my poverty spec gen 1 interior gauges

No tach
No trip meter
No white guages
No clock

28inch tires
Black front bumper
Black mirror
Black grille
Manual everything

 

Nice! That reminded me... Dad's truck didn't even come with a rear bumper!

 

most of the people between 16-30 I see around here drive f150s or silverados.
Actually yet to meet anyone my age that has a tacoma, most of the other off road crowd guys my age (25-30) usually have jeeps.

All those that have f150s are usually the typical bro crowd, either frat boys or just random general labourer construction guys. Never take it wheeling, most off road it sees is driving on the construction site or grass while they're playing football or something. Not like they actually do any overlanding etc.

Only seen 1 other off road taco so far in my area, and it was an older guy who had a sticker on the back for the same 4x4 club I'm with so he actually uses it off road. Haven't seen him on the trails yet though.

 

rear bumper was optional?
