I agree with you though on your example 100% it’s a meaningless metric no one cares.

They will still be building Hellcats for the Ram TRX and Hemis for the Rams like the 6.4 for the Ram HD trucks according to Ram CEO recently. If Dodge actually loses out after the newness wears off they can probably for a short time bring back a N/A Hemi as a backup plan. I doubt it but the option is there. Dodge is in a unique position they only offer an SUV and performance vehicles and soon the Hornet unlike Chevy and Ford that have the Camaro and Mustang under the same umbrellas as their Trucks and other vehicles. Dodge IMO will be the one to look at to see how well this change will be perceived.
