I think Tankit thought you were accusing the people of Mexico of being incapable or something.

I agree with you on the new engine, new plant thing.

Well Mexico does suck but that is beside the point. LolZZZZZ


Good luck on the truck man when you say cylinder dead did the truck motor blow like oil leaking out hole in the block? or just misfiring?

I stand corrected. That's what I get for listening to other people and not just looking it up myself. I have now looked it up and: "Hemi production began in June 2002 at the Salitillo plant in Mexico"

I guess I'm just a racist then. I mean, that's pretty much a given if you own a Dodge and visit the forum, right? (For those of you that won't detect this, I'm just joking.)

I listened to you.

Still, it is a new engine and new things can have problems.

And your avatar offends me. Not really...

I see nothing wrong with sharing the beauty of a woman (:cough: objectifying women :cough in a small 1"x1" square on a Dodge truck forum.
