Dodge is killing it for 2021 Redeye vs GT500

[ZRacerLE]

That might happen. I hope so.

I bet so. Dodge with their picture of a T-rex hovering over a raptor (RAM TRX) and chevy saying "we'll prove raptors are extinct" (Silverado ZRX) means those two a bringing some new monsters. Ford will respond. I'll win no matter what.

I think this is the real deal for the Raptor 2021 and I have it in my Tremor and I love it.

CL & ZRacer: I'm old and would rather drive a comfortable truck like CL's SD. I love my '18 and I loved my '05, too. If I want to get after it, I wanna duit in a car. :-) Different strokes, I say.

But the newer one is SO much quieter and rides SO much better that it's astounding to me. The wife drives a CT6 and while it's a great riding car, my "Ruby's" ride is pretty darn close for something twice as large AND being a 4WD pickup.

Trucks have come a long way in the ride department that’s for sure.

We might not even have the Redeye if the GT500 wasn’t made.
Who knows.
Bring on the HORSEPOWER!!!!

Or the original 707hp Hellcat if the 2013-14 GT500 didn't have 662hp and so on and so on.

The Diesel pickup war is even crazier.

2020 Ford diesel pickups now have 475 hp and 1050 torque.

Out of those - I’d only get the Durango. If I’m going to drive a boat...might as well be able to tow one, too.

I hear ya! But I track my car AND dirt track my truck. I'm probably 0.001% of the population though. My ZR2 is surprisingly comfortable, but I would guess the Raptor is even more comfortable with the higher mass to soak up the bumps even better.

The grid is already strained, there has been bad wild fires in California a few years ago from the strain.

Tell your prof that he needs to up his research game. The fires were caused by poor grid maintenance and bad forestry practices.

I didn't ask my professor about that.

That actually means that the situation is worse than I thought. PG&E is cheaping out and not spending money to maintain their equipment. Half of the deadliest wildfires in California have been caused by PG&E's failures and negligence, its been happening for years now. I doubt that they would be pleased with having to overhaul their entire system with increased safety measures to accommodate for massive output needed to charge EVs since they can't even do it now. They have mandatory power outages now to deal with the issue.

Whodda ever thought a state would run out of juice for EV. I think it's somewhat humorous.

 

[Classic Lover]

Hahahahahaha, I had a blast reading this. These people don’t want freedom for themselves or others. Funny but sad at the same time.
