Unfortunately it is due to price. Turns out dodge can put the hemi in the truck cheaper than it would be for nissan to handle the motor. I do think the modern hemi is a well built motor. Not sure about it's real world longevity. It will feel akward knowing the american icon hemi nameplate will be on an asian manufacturers truck. Will they start putting it in the maxima? I am glad that dodge is playing all cards. It is tough for the american companies right now. If I had to choose between dodge going out of business and the hemi going overseas I say do what you can so we can still be able to buy these bada$$ rides they have been churning out. Next step would be to take advantage of these absurd fuel costs and start building them in america again to boost "our" economy and provide jobs for the americans who buy their product. Would save a bunch on shipping, no?
