    1. Mopar had a good run back in the 50s and 60s and boomers cling to that like gas station toilet paper.

      ✨RAMCHARGERS✨ lol

      I really, really hate to admit that I really REALLY fucking want a Challenger RT/SRT8. Now I will never give up my Japanese vehicles, but gawd-DAYUM I do love a big, lopey, and disgustingly unhinged V8 with a proper gearbox in RWD. Something about that combo just tickles my nuts in all the right ways. Aw hell, even an SRT4 Neon has the spirit of the old DSMs - both are properly unhinged when tuned. Like, DSM guys break all kinds of shit to the point you’re lucky to make a single pass, but when that thing runs, it fucking SCREAMS.

      I guess the nice thing about having basement-level expectations from the start is the fact that most issues have several forums’ worth of well-(at least it’s)-documented tips, tricks, fixes, and upgrades, from backyard mechanics all the way to full-blown professionals.
