Just wanted to let you guys know about this awesome new development in the Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep lines.

It's a new transmission that uses a dual clutch system. Chrysler will be the first company to utilize it. Mercedes has been trying to develop it for years but with no success (so said.)


This could just be Mercedes using Chrysler as the guinea pig to test it out before they release it in Mercedes products (like they are doing with MDS).

Either way its a great product. Increases fuel economy by 6% and 0-60 by 1 to 2 seconds.. Thats the difference between a Crossfire and a Viper..
