Gah... drool...

The Tomahawk is cool too, but I -really- doubt it could ever get government approval for street use.

And a 325HP version of our beloved 4.7 V8 to boot. I'd like to scavenge some parts from that version of the 4.7 for myself.

Super Ultra Mega High Output, anyone?

I don't know about you, but MY local gas-station doesn't have natural gas pumps...

Dragon,

I wouldn't be surprised if there was enough interest in the car if they didn't make it run on standard pump-gas. It's been done before, where cars shown as a 'concept' with some ground breaking tech get enough rave reviews as to get built, minus the ground breaking tech...

I don't mind the "ground-breaking tech". I just have to be practical (well, as practical as you can get running a 14.5MPG truck!). Where are you going to fill up a natural gas vehicle, and how much would it cost to commute to work in one week vs. regular pump gas?
Would converting to natural gas increase MY HP and MPG in my Dak?

I dunno bout all the new tech gas crap. But i think that the good old fuel that comes outta the pump now is good enough. THe Charger is awesome. Price s prolly gonna be upwards of 50k would be my guess. I have seen that Honda has come out with a car that will run off Hydrogen gas. According to chemistry class that reaction would release water and NOO exhaust fumes. I dont know how the Natural Gas reaction works. But i doubt we will have to worry about flowmasters or the rice burner exhaust cause i doubt there will be enough pressure of what ever comes out to make them work.

That new Charger R/T will also have a 6.1 liter version of the new Hemi.
