Meh, shit happens.

Here is my GT350 with 110 miles on it, driveshaft fell off while I was on my driveway....

Not too mention, the OGs will certainly remember but when the Gen 1 Raptors first came out there were some serious bent frame issues that were a daily topic of discussion on the interweb.

damn that’s odd, fell off is better than broke off I suppose

ironically I’m waiting to see just how chewed up the TQ tube/prop shaft/pilot bearing/driveshaft is in my modded Z06, it’s definitely twisted, 49k miles on it & has been modded more every year I’ve owned it 718whp last time on dyno...axles/half shafts/tranny still holding though I may just pull the tranny & have it swapped/built for an RPM stage 2 unit (T56 tremec)

buts that’s a modded vehicle

when the factory builds a 700+HP vehicle you’d like to think they overbuilt all the other rotating bits of the drivetrain....vs spending $$/“R&D” on lil plaques depicting dinosaurs & 12” touch screens, but hey who am I to judge lol!

As an Engineer, one of the first things you learn........ never buy the first year of a mew model! There’s always an intense pressure between sales / marketing and Engineering / Development to get it out but do it right. I’m sure internally the Dodge Engineers are telling Marketing...... told ya so. If not........ they’re F**cked.
