On Monday One Lap of America passed through Colorado and Mike Musto took the opportunity to stop at four Denver-area AutoNation Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram stores: Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Arapahoe, Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram Broadway, Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram Southwest and Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram West! He even got one service department to fix his tire. Video after the jump!
AutoNation is sponsoring the 2015 One Lap of America and Dodge stepped up to the plate to provide two vehicles: a 2015 Dodge Challenger 392 Hemi Scat Pack to be driven by Mike Musto, plus a Dodge Durango being driven as an official media vehicle. Here’s the Challenger right after it was picked up last night at the Chicago airport. The event starts tomorrow at the Tire Rack Wet Skid Pad in South Bend, Indiana. More pics after the jump!
Ricci Cavallaro took a bone-stock 2015 Challenger Hellcat to Pittsburgh Raceway Park, swapped out the OEM rubber for Nitto NT05 tires measuring 305/45/r18, and made a 10.97 pass on his first run! Two subsequent runs were also in the 10s. Read more at Torque News. Videos of his first two runs after the jump!
So your significant other refuses to let you buy a Hellcat. “The constant whining is crazy!” You’re not sure if they mean you or the Dodge. If you have to compromise, tell them you’ll settle for the lowly, normally aspirated Charger Scat Pact. Autoweek does a short review of the Scat Pack. “…how does it drive? About how you’d think 485 hp propelling 4,400 pounds would drive—it gets up and goes.” Read the review here. More pics after the jump!
Roadkill is now sponsored by Dodge. Hmmm. Watch their latest episode and tell us what you think. Video after the jump!
Prospective Hellcat buyers are being warned about giving deposits to certain unscrupulous Dodge dealers for a Hellcat that may take many months to materialize. The source of this warning?

RSI Racing Solutions has built a twin turbo Viper pushing over 1000 hp. Hey, why should the Charger and Challenger have all the fun? Find more info at Jalopnik. Video after the jump!
Jeep is toying with our emotions regarding the next gen Wrangler. First, Carbuzz reported on the good news; it is NOT becoming a crossover and will remain body on frame construction complete with solid axles. Then they reported on the bad news; the 3.6 Pentastar will be replaced by something smaller and turbocharged and the folding windshield is going away. No word on if the removable doors or top are staying or going.
