DODGE Presents...eMuscle

DID YOU KNOW:

...That Dodge has announced that they intend to build an Electric Vehicle muscle car 2024? That’s right: Forget the Hemi and start thinking batteries because Dodge says it sees the handwriting on the wall. Under the heading “eMuscle,” Dodge was to be king of the streets with no ICE. Frankly, for all the hype they’re making about it...it really isn’t that hard, Ford has already set a quarter-mile (1,000 feet in truth) record with an electric powered Mustang, a version of Ford’s drag car package. However, this does signal the beginning of a new wave of high-performance vehicle that should make the tree-huggers very happy.

...That Ford’s new full-size Bronco advances the “off-roading” mindset to a whole new level? Though it may appear rugged and crude, it's state-of-the-art in terms of engineering and internal design. We’d like to call it clever, but Ford prefers "tough." Tough is likely true, and we truly respect how the entire package was designed and produced. Most truly capable off-road vehicles lack refinement and can be a bear to live with in the real world, but this new Bronco is a game changer and will quickly influence how others address the fastest growing hobby in America.

...That there’s a Bill of the floor of the House that is designed to encourage Americans to buy Union built electric vehicles? It wants to pay Americans up $12,500 for buying “Union Built” EVs. America builds the best EVs in the marketplace. That’s not to say there isn’t strong competition, but we don’t have buy our customers; the products compete for themselves. More honestly, this bill is designed to back the UAW which taxpayers shouldn’t have to do.

...That NASCAR rips off over 10 million ticket buyers and TV viewers every season by continuing to use a “yellow” flag procedure that deprives the fans of nearly a third of the event of racing? Nobody tunes in or buys a ticket to see three-quarters of a race. If it’s called a 500 mile race or 300 lap race, NASCAR should fulfill the expectation that there will be that many miles or laps of racing. Instead NASCAR will throw a caution flag and then burn down the best part of race following the pace car. It takes NASCAR more time and laps to clean up after a yellow flag than in any other form of racing. The race should resume from the lap or mile count of the time of the yellow flag. Stop stealing people’s money and spare us the crap about the TV clock. If tennis or golf can go over allotted TV time, so too can motorcading.
