First a 'F' Bomb, now this.
« on: March 10, 2011, 09:25:58 am »
Yesterday a worker at the media outlet Chrysler uses for their official Twitter account dropped an 'F' bomb on an official tweet in the morning (and was then fired).  Today, Auto123 showed me this.  Take a look at the picture, read the engine stats.  That really would be a 'SuperPowertrian'  ;D    Dodge needs to get their online personnel on the ball.

Imagine your Hemi spun to 18 000rpm?

He was probably typing fuchsia but the type ahead took over.  :rofl2:

I just noticed I used personal instead or personnel (stupid auto-type).  Oh, and my 'theirs' are backwards too.  going to have to check my BB spell check.

The point is that they quote 18 000rpm  ;)  It was a joke.  They used the word Superpowertrain so I did too.

Maybe they converted the Challenger and converted it a Rotary.

Oh...wait...sorry...they mention improved fuel economy...and that's not 26.8 lb-ft  of torque...but 268.
