what a good way to get people to stop buying your car
Stellantis was already well on their way with that making the Charger electric (which according to more than one review, isn't that good), dropping all V8s & only offering a 6-cylinder (that's not even available, yet).

I heard that one of these years is the last of the V8?
has that happened yet?

Fuck all the screens and touch functions controlling the vehicle

I have a '21 truck but I turn the screen off 99% of the time

Last year was - at least for the Charger. Not sure what's still available in Rams (technically its own brand now), Jeeps, Durangos, etc.

However, the pushback has been pretty hard, the electric Charger isn't going over well, and Stellantis is under new leadership. Speculation is Dodge will end up bringing V8s back to the Charger...especially since they designed it with an engine bay big enough to drop one in.

Yep
EV sales pitch rarely lives up to the hype.

I know a rich retired doctor gentleman who bought a 100K Loaded Rivian(20% off due to early security deposit) all hyped up on EV love. He owned it two months and sold it for a profit, it was a nightmare. He now admits "EVs are just not ready yet, they are only for short in city commuters". He wanted to go visit people and do trips and he admittedly said that it was an absolutely comedy shitshow when he needed to recharge. Now he is asking me about what is a good older gas truck to buy lol. Pretty funny.
