    There's someone using marspeed name telling people they won a car and he is the original Marspeed. That individual is requesting all my personal information along with driver's license number and stating an agent will email me with delivery confirmation of the new vehicle. That person is also stating he has partnered with Ford and is giving away five vehicles the five lucky subscribers and I was apparently one of them. I know the engine shop where the original Mark speed has his engine work done and the location of that shop which the individual could not validate any of that information. Please beware of someone claiming he is more speed giving away free vehicles

      The industry isn't naturally trying to push it. They're being forced to by politicians and governments that would rather knee cap their citizens than actually do what's right. As more and more people switch to EVs or are forced to switch tonEVs, then the power grids won't be able to handle it unless if we spin up more nuclear reactors. Wind and Solar simply cant provide enough energy. And coal powered plants will drastically increase their rates.
      Look at California, they're forcing this change to happen by 2025. This summer (and even last summer), many towns/cities had extremely high energy usage. The energy companies said you could choose AC or being able to charge your car, not both. Mind you LA also banned the use of gas powered generators in residential areas.
      A gas vehicle will be a luxury, an ev will be a knee capped device like a phone but it costs a minimum of $40k new, and the people forcing you to live this way will say let them buy EVs

      What's going to happen to the Dodge Charger police pursuit after 2023? We've imagine how law enforcement agencies feel about the Charger police pursuit being discontinued. If the charger police pursuit returns for the next generation, a turbocharged I6 is too much horsepower & torque to be in cop car. "Hemi powered" is a legend of the muscle car industry. Why they introduced a twin-turbo hemi from the factory for the next generation charger & challenger. WE LOVE OUR HEMI POWERED REAR DRIVE MOPARS AND WE ARE NOT GETTING RID OF THEM. I wish those hemis could carried over to the next generation charger & challenger. The CEO of dodge is taking away that American V8 muscle car feel. Bring back the hemis for the next generation charger & challenger Tim Kuniskis.

By 2026, all new vehicles sold must have an EPA of 40mpg or higher. There's no going back to the current Hemi engines. Even the new C8 Z06 will have a Gas Gussler Tax that's between $2600 to $3000 added to the MSRP. This Gas Gussler Tax already found on the Hellcat cars could be even higher on every new Hemi powered car currently being built before they end production. No matter who you contact in congress, US Senate or even the President. The new green US is in place

But it's looking like the biggest difference will be the end of the American V8 in the near future, as turbocharged 4 cylinder and 6 cylinder engines become more common.

I know they did cause I build those cars day in and day out and have been there 25 years. I've seen what they continue to add and release that the customers have asked for.

I'd love to see the Hemi live on for a few more years, but they'll be around in the used market for decades. This same hate towards EVs happened with seat belt laws, catalytic converters, and then air bags. "It'll ruin the industry, it'll infringe on my personal liberty, it'll cost too much, its bending the knee to the government". Blah blah blah. Do EVs have negative global implications? Of course, nothing humans do is free. But sticking with 120 year old ICE technology that both hurts the planet and empowers dictatorial, radical, and unstable oil rich countries who are the enemies of freedom justifies the need for alternatives. Yes china provides much of the battery supply, but that's our own fault, because our government failed to provide incentives to make them ourselves. That is changing though and the more we can do to be energy independent, the better.
