I'm not against the EV part and even with all of your points - it's just so damn ugly. That is the number one road block for me. It could have 2000 hp and be free to charge. It's just too ugly.


While I'm not in love with the styling, the front half is ok (JUST ok), the rear lines are where it falls apart for me. Then they failed again with the interior styling, and then they failed HARD with the exhaust...

EXHAUST on an EV... Brilliance... Not...

I wonder if someone somewhere will try to kill themself by running a hose from the exhaust to the interior. Of course, the noise might complete the task.

I’m wondering if I can make a trailer hitch fit on one.

Didn't they screw up a bit when naming that thing Charger?
Discharger would be more appropriate, I think.

Not a difficult thing to do by any means… my biggest struggle was how low the hitch was and keeping it off of the ground with my trailer hooked up to it. I scraped all the time. It was pretty funny actually.

It was going to be temporary for a couple of weeks.

Usually, getting hitched is not temporary. Which is why I'm still single.

Getting better in my mind.
Maybe so, but then there's real life.
When I get so old that I think things are getting better, I will no longer drive on public roads.

Dodge needs to watch this. Can make it optional on the new charger.
