Okay folks, I’m going to do my best here to disentangle the news regarding Dodge’s Charger plans but given the number of variants and launch schedules – not to mention the potential return of V8 engines – this could get messy. So, where are we exactly? Well, late last week Dodge sent out a press release announcing the 2026 Charger Daytona sedan, which is set to arrive in the second half of this year. No specific dates were mentioned, but the car is available for order now.

Before anyone reading this headline gets too excited, Nissan has not officially confirmed a new S platform sports coupe (i.e. Silvia / 240SX) is headed for production. Everyone, calm down. But a ray of hope might be piercing the darkness. Finally. Before going any further, everything I’m about to dig into goes back to Fall 2024. There have been no further updates in 2025, at least not yet. With that said, the reason for optimism is due to a Motor1.com article from last September.

For the eleventh consecutive model year, Toyota will introduce a unique color for its line of TRD Pro vehicles. What began with Inferno red in 2015, continues with Wave Maker, a pale shade of blue, for 2026. A decidedly bright shade that eschews the earth tones Toyota has featured in recent years, including Terra and Mudbath, Wave Maker will be available on TRD Pro grades for 4Runner, Tacoma, Tundra, and Sequoia beginning this fall.

Not everyone watches your interminable pregame show, @Sportsnet. I tuned in during the 2nd intermission and had no idea about Scheifele’s dad until I googled it after the game. I know it’s hockey but you have a duty to inform. Some of us tune in late. Cryptic talk isn’t helpful
It could still end badly, of course, but that was a huge gut check win. 👍 🏒 #LeafsForever #StanleyCup
