Yes, bone stock I ran 13.4. So yes stock, for the most part they do run mid 13's. But you'd have to pretty damn ignorant if you think my car is still stock.

So, you find it funny that a 300hp car can't run 13s, but not funny at all that a 400 hp car only runs 13s?

And somehow Nick isn't the ignorant one?

Saw it first hand for the first time @ SEMA. Still figuring out why they replaced the neon with it.

exactly.. and the built in cooler!

cool features. I haven't seen one in person so I have no idea how well Dodge actually put everything together, but so far the idea sounds like it'd be a good vehicle to tailgate with.

Not much of a performance car, I think 300 hp to the front wheels in a heavy ass mini SUV is pretty useless...
