They are coming out with a 5 seater using the 3.8 engine instead of the 3.5.
That's progressive. Install a bigger fuel guzzler. Obviously, these Germans don't take hints from each other. Porsche is making a deal to use Toyota hybrid engine technology on their SUV's. Go figure. Arthur
What leads you to believe that the larger displacement engine will be a 'bigger fuel guzzler'? Please show your research. --Geoff
Some people shouldn't be allowed near a keyboard. Did it ever occur to you that a bigger displacement, LOWER peak horsepower but HIGHER peak torque engine might just yield BETTER fuel efficiency in a heavy vehicle than a high-revving quad-valve overhead-cam engine that spends 99.999% way off its optimum operating parameters does?
Unfortunately EPA figures aren't available yet at Chrysler's site but I was thinking that at least there would be a low end torque improvement.
