If you haven't heard...maybe the fear of reprisal is coming to Chevy with
the latest Dakota SRT-8 and its fame 5.7 motor. Chevy has up the ante on
the motor now to a 330HP 5.3L but still has a automatic tranny. However, I
had to laugh at the price: estimated at $42,000.

"Democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government.
It can only exist until voters discover they can vote themselves
largess (generous gifts) from the public treasury. From that moment
on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most
benefits from the public treasury, with the result that a democracy
always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a
dictatorship. The average age of the world's greatest civilizations
has been 200 years. These nations have progressed through this
sequence: from spiritual faith to great courage; from courage to
liberty; from liberty to abundance; from abundance to complacency;
from complacency to apathy; from apathy to dependence; from
dependence back again to bondage.
(By Alexander Tyler Frasier, over 200 years ago.)
