AWD TBSS.

That could be because barely anyone with those things drives them hard..I mean just leaving from a light hard. I don't think that many of the Toyota owners go WOT at all.

Plus the n/a turd 4 cylinders dominate that small SUV market so the six cylinder versions are not as popular. Toyota dropped the 6 cylinder for the new bodystyle and I'm not sure if they will bring it back.

I know Chevy had the Equinox SS and Ford had the 240hp V6 Escape with the 6 speed auto, and Subaru with the Forrester XT (turbo 250 hp 4 sp auto or CVT I think) so there are a few other examples but generally speaking, just not that common.

lol they also bare the SS badges and LS V8's.. they're gonna be quick.

Your typical Rav4 looks nothing like it'll be even remotely fast.
Same reason I gave him the benefit of the doubt and let him gun it first!

I hear the V6's weren't all that popular in the Rav4's.. go figure. You give them a moderate size/weight chassis, AWD and the power of a Sixxer and it does not sell (??)

Same fate for the AWD Charger's.. the Hemi AWD's weren't selling so they dropped it in AWD form and kept the V-6's. Strange how things work out.

I suppose most normal folks don't see a need for sheer power/acceleration on a daily basis..

I think Dodge still makes an AWD Hemi Charger though. I went and fiddled around with building a Charger on their website and the AWD Hemi is still an option. Do you mean the 2015's?

Sadly, they dropped the AWD for the 2015 Hemi's but you can still get them with the 3.6/8 speed auto. Still 4000lbs. or so, but with a high strung 300hp motor and way better gearing than the old 5 speed. It's high 14's quick. I like the styling of my car better than the new '15's though which look like an inbreed of the Durango/Dart/Charger if it had a big orgy and shat out the new '15 Charger :D

I love mine because it's a monster in the snow/weekly blizzards up here and feels like a friggin' tank with it's sheer weight. AWD and 420lbs./ft. of torque is always fun too. Low-mid 13's is nothing to write home about nowadays, but being nearly 5k lbs. of big ass seats, four fat doors, a mammoth hood/trunk and a 345ci under the hood.. it's not too shabby.

It's a big burly sedan can't argue with that lol. Kind of like your big buff/fat friend that shows up to the party late, loud and already drunk... like "okay, I am here.. this is me".

An accurate review..


I originally wanted it just for the AWD and V8 but I became a pretty big fan of these cars. I really wasn't expecting much to be honest back in 2011 coming from my modded 08 S197 but I am very pleased with the performance for how ridiculously big and heavy this porker is. I have quite a few mods to the transmission right now and it's night and day from stock. Got rid of the MDS (Multi-cylinder Deactivation System) and some other goodies..

Stealth, why don't you become a spokesman for Dodge or start selling them?

Chase is a race is dumb...

I actually just left a Dodge dealership as a tech. Thought I was gonna be doing some cool stuff but ended up working on mini van's, old ass Stratus's and Neons lol


Yeah, should have just lined up against him and went from a DIG! :D

lolololololol
