The magic link between the V10 and the road is a GM-based 2-speed 'Glide?

Congrats!

justincase_2008 · 10-02-2010, 01:57 PM

TJ91 · 10-02-2010, 02:34 PM

completely off topic. 8 speed? we're talking 2 speeds here. Tow and GO!

Scrappy Doo · 10-02-2010, 02:51 PM

For 85k it better be fast.... LOL

Makes sense. Ford already offers this.

Maybe Chevrolet will follow suit. Would be killer.

No, you won't find any of them in a walmart parking lot getting groceries, that's for damn sure.

danhr · 10-02-2010, 03:12 PM

there has been talk of dodge bringing back the drag pack for awhile.

As stated above, you will NEVER see on at a parking lot or on the street. It's a off-road vehicle only, it has almost no traditional safety equipment, no over drive, hell... it doesn't even have a VIN.

It's main purpose to to give dodge a edge in stock car races.

Way too much money and technology replaces displacement. They should just build the V8 to more power. Granted people do want V10s and it is kid of cool, but it would be cheaper and increase sales having the stock V8 they have and building that different. Or at least the chances of it being cheaper is there, thus increasing sales.
