CEO of Dodge predicting the death of big Iron block V8’s makes me sad.

EV’s just don’t have the same feel. Too clinical, too clean.

You know it’s bad when dodge says that.

In the Netherlands practically every car has a number plate frame with text on it.
Usually the dealer or garage. Some people have club tags on them.
I remove them all together because, ugly.
Now i wonder how that’s the case in other countries.

My country and number plate holders
  • It’s illegal to drive without one
  • I (practically) haven’t seen a car without
  • Most of the cars have one
  • Some do some don’t
  • Practically no one has them
  • I didn’t even know those existed
  • They are illegal here

My application for 0k z00mer was denied, but yes custom plates are fairly common in my part of California.

most cars have one but there is strict guidance on the shape size. and what it can and cant cover up on the plate.

I think you are confused with vanity plates.

Perhaps I read that wrong, are you talking about plates in general?

Or are you talking about the outer frames?

Instructions unclear
**** stuck in exhaust pipe

Enjoy paying $500+ for a new alternator.

You may click the “i didn’t even know those existed” option

Who cares … Literally its a luxury car. You are buying it for luxury. Repair costs are totally and utterly irrelevant :joy:

I’d love to see small displacement oversquare V8s that rev to the moon.

Or a crossplane 4 put in a car.

Uhh lol there’s nothing clinical about the performance teslas.. There’s everything kneck wrench and hilariously stupid fast.. well except maybe you ending up in the clinic for a whiplash lmfao

Clean yeah but I love elegance. Electric will take over and I honestly can’t wait for those days. Tired of the doomer mentalities over it

Meh, I just prefer traditional internal combustion engines.

Yes, I’m aware EV’s can have better performance. They just don’t have the same feel to me.

an 8 second car can be built for sub $10k

if you’re solely chasing performance you can do a lot with a little compared to EVs which cost a lot and dont go nearly as fast

the real question is, are you having fun with it? Thats what really matters.

the ideal is a marriage of both worlds.

Will have to agree that coil whine doesn’t have the same effect on me that the rumbling of a v8 has.

My concern is that market forces (as well as “other” forces) will push to entirely phase out internal combustion vehicles because reasons.

nah, people will keep them even after electric has essentially demolished gas engines in every way. they will become collectors items at that point.
