Default Will Dodge be back in Truck racing...

in 07?
Or will they throw in the towel instead of trying to outspend Toyota?
It looks as though they wont win a single race this year in truck, is there any reason to believe they wont fold the truck program after this year?[:@]

Dodge has major financial issues right now. Cutting programs that aren't seen as big profit makers wouldn't surprise me......

Dodge just needs some good teams and drivers. Bobby Hamilton was good but his son is a joke. They also need to support more teams. Remember, they did win the championship last year with Ted Musgrave, then they pulled the plug on Ultra Motorsports. Dodge needs more young talent. I'm not completely sold on Kasey Kahne yet, nor will i think I ever will be.

kasey kahne has won 5 races this year. the most out of all the other drivers. sure he's had some bad luck and some mechanical failures but atleast he made the chase. but it doesnt look like he will win it this year. I cant wait to see how elliot sadler makes out in the 19. so far he's pretty good.

but he still can't run consistant. Dodge needs some good ole boys. Elliot Sadler was a step in the right direction. Clint Boywer is another. THe talent pool just needs to be bigger.

I just find it funny or odd, depending on your take, that heres Dodge, a powerhouse in the Truck Series for a while, they finally get a championship, and I think the manufactuers championship last year also, and then theyve disapeared. Also what happened tp Brendan Gaughan? Before he went to the Cup series he was a damn good truck driver, now he's lucky to be in the top 10. I found him to be a very nice driver who appreciates his fans, its just a shame his #77 Dodge isnt dominating.
