The 5.7L V8 Fossil fuel burner, creates a thrill in red blooded males across the continent (myself included).  Fuel companies and their powerful lobbiests will ensure that you have the right to burn as much gas as you want in the name of pleasure, power, and sheer wanton depravity.  These same lobbiests and their sheep-like fuel burning ecophobes will make sure that progress will not supply us with a viable electric alternative any time soon.  If you can't beat them, join them.  That's why I work for a Dodge dealership, home of the 392 ci (6.4L Hemi). Lithium Ion is not quite as sexy, until you see the electric powered drag racer on you tube below.
