Mopar Has Over A Thousand New Ways To Modify Your Jeep, Dodge, Ram, Or Chrysler

Mopar Just Made Modifications Much Easier
Stellantis has just announced that its Mopar division is expanding the range of accessories available to Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram vehicles, with more than 1,000 newly available accessories on offer and more being regularly added from more than 40 supplying partners.
'We're partnering with our most trusted and popular suppliers to enhance convenience and accessory choice options for customers and dealers, providing a one-stop shop and sales experience,' said senior VP of Mopar North America, Darren Bradshaw. So what can buyers look forward to?
Roof Rails, Suspension Lifts, And More
The wide variety of accessories on the Mopar eStore includes things like a foldable cooler, floor liners, cargo bins, license plate frames, roof racks, roof boxes, racing stripes, stainless steel pedal covers, and lower suspension springs. Cat-back exhaust systems and cold air intake kits are also on offer for vehicles like the Durango, while off-roaders like the Jeep Gladiator and Wrangler benefit from upgrades like additional lighting systems, snorkel kits, tube doors, skid plates, and a Bilstein-based 2-inch lift kit. More aggressive bumpers, wheels, and fender flares are also on offer, while those who like to relax may be interested in an audio upgrade.
Interestingly, Mopar has even added a couple of accessories for the all-electric Dodge Charger Daytona, though these are limited to things like floor mats, door sill guards, and charging cables. Dodge intended for the EV to be upgradeable using what it calls 'Power Crystals,' but with sales proving vastly underwhelming, it remains to be seen if there will be any demand for the extra power, especially with a gas model on the way.
Personalization With Peace Of Mind
If you're after something specific for your vehicle, it's worth browsing the extensive selection of accessories available for each model, because there's everything from rock sliders, dash cameras, and HitchFire grills to Tuffy Safes, bed caps, and various tents. Some of these installations will require more mechanical knowledge than others, but the best part of the Mopar program is that owners of new or old vehicles can have these enhancements ordered and fitted by their local dealer.
'The Mopar Affiliated Accessories program enhances customer experience by offering easy access to the most popular accessories that buyers crave,' according to Matt Godfrey, general sales manager at Golling Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and Ram. 'We've seen a definite increase in the amount of upfits from the program, and at the end of the day, our dealership and our customers win with this one-stop-shop option.'
Each supplier – Thule, AccuAir, Competition Specialties, et cetera – is responsible for the warranties on their respective accessories, but Mopar has reviewed each of them to ensure proper fitment. As Mopar-approved upfits, these parts shouldn't impact the vehicle warranty.

CEO Tim Cook says Apple ready to open its wallet to catch up in AI
SAN FRANCISCO, July 31 (Reuters) - Apple (AAPL.O), opens new tab CEO Tim Cook signaled on Thursday the iPhone maker was ready to spend more to catch up to rivals in artificial intelligence by building more data centers or buying a larger player in the segment, a departure from a long practice of fiscal frugality. Apple has struggled to keep pace with rivals such as Microsoft (MSFT.O), opens new tab and Alphabet's Google (GOOGL.O), opens new tab, both of which have attracted hundreds of millions of users to their AI-powered chatbots and assistants. That growth has come at a steep cost, however, with Google planning to spend $85 billion over the next year and Microsoft on track to spend more than $100 billion, mostly on data centers. Apple, in contrast, has leaned on outside data center providers to handle some of its cloud computing work, and despite a high-profile partnership with ChatGPT creator OpenAI for certain iPhone features, has tried to grow much of its AI technology in-house, including improvements to its Siri virtual assistant. The results have been rocky, with the company delaying its Siri improvements until next year. During a conference call after Apple's fiscal third-quarter results, analysts noted that Apple has historically not done large deals and asked whether it might take a different approach to pursue its AI ambitions. CEO Cook responded that the company had already acquired seven smaller companies this year and is open to buying larger ones. "We're very open to M&A that accelerates our roadmap. We are not stuck on a certain size company, although the ones that we have acquired thus far this year are small in nature," Cook said. "We basically ask ourselves whether a company can help us accelerate a roadmap, and if they do, then we're interested." Apple has tended to buy smaller firms with highly specialized technical teams to build out specific products. Its largest deal ever was its purchase of Beats Electronics for $3 billion in 2014, followed by a $1 billion deal to buy a modem chip business from Intel. But now Apple is at a unique crossroads for its business. The tens of billions of dollars per year it receives from Google as payment to be the default search engine on iPhones could be undone by U.S. courts in Google's antitrust trial, while startups like Perplexity are in discussions to try to dislodge Google with an AI-powered browser that would handle many search functions. Apple executives have said in court they are considering reshaping the firm's Safari browser with AI-powered search functions, and Bloomberg News has reported that Apple executives have discussed buying Perplexity, which Reuters has not independently confirmed. Apple also said on Thursday it plans to spend more on data centers, an area where it typically spends only a few billion dollars per year. Apple is currently using its own chip designs to handle AI requests with privacy controls that are compatible with the privacy features on its devices. Kevan Parekh, Apple's chief financial officer, did not give specific spending targets but said outlays would rise. "It's not going to be exponential growth, but it is going to grow substantially," Parekh said during the conference call. "A lot of that's a function of the investments we're making in AI."

Trump news at a glance: president unleashes slew of new tariff rates for trading partners – and sets another deadline
Donald Trump has signed an executive order placing tariffs on dozens of US trading partners just hours before the 1 August deadline he set for deals to be done. The new tariffs, the next step in his trade agenda that will test the global economy, are set to go into effect in seven days. The extension reflects the government's need for more time to harmonize the tariff rates, AP reports, according to a senior official who spoke to reporters on condition of anonymity. The order applies to 68 countries and the 27-member European Union. Rates were set at 25% for India's US-bound exports, 20% for Taiwan, 19% for Thailand and 15% for South Korea. Trump also increased duties on Canadian goods to 35% from 25% for all products not covered by the US-Mexico-Canada trade agreement, but gave Mexico a 90-day reprieve from higher tariffs to negotiate a broader trade deal. Trump had threatened on Wednesday that Ottawa's move to recognise a Palestinian state would make agreeing a trade deal 'very hard'. Asian shares fell on Friday after the tariffs announcement. Read on for more on tariffs and other key US politics news of the day: US president Donald Trump has signed an executive order imposing reciprocal tariffs ranging from 10% to 41% on imports from dozens of countries and foreign locations, as he extended the deadline for a tariff deal with Mexico by another 90 days.

Brazil's tariff rate was set at 10%, but a previous order signed by Trump placed a 40% tariff on some Brazilian goods, to punish the country for prosecuting its former president, Jair Bolsonaro, for trying to overturn an election he lost and inspiring his supporters to storm the seat of government. Separately, the White House announced that Canadian imports will face tariffs of 35%, not the current 25%. Trump had threatened on Wednesday that Ottawa's move to recognise a Palestinian state would make agreeing a trade deal 'very hard'.

Donald Trump evaded the question when asked if he agrees with Marjorie Taylor Greene that 'what is occurring [in Gaza] is a genocide'. Trump replied: 'Oh it's terrible what's occurring there, yeah', before repeating his complaint that 'nobody said thank you' when the US donated money to feed the people of Gaza, and his false claim that the recent donation of $30m was $60m.

Edison International's quarterly profit falls as L.A. wildfire investigations continue
July 31 (Reuters) - Edison International (EIX.N), opens new tab reported a fall in second-quarter profit on Thursday, as the utility grappled with higher operating expenses while facing investigations related to the Los Angeles wildfires earlier this year. Multiple wildfires in January scorched tens of thousands of acres across Los Angeles in what is expected to have been the most costly natural disaster in U.S. history, and the area's electric utilities have come under increasing scrutiny. While wildfires can cause extensive power outages by damaging power lines and infrastructure, they can also originate from these power lines. Southern California Edison (SCE), Edison International's subsidiary, is facing multiple lawsuits, which allege that its electrical equipment started one of the major wildfires in the Los Angeles area – the Eaton fire. While investigations into the cause of the Eaton Fire are going on, lawsuits have honed in on SCE transmission infrastructure in the hills above the community of Altadena as starting the blaze. "SCE is not aware of evidence pointing to another possible source of ignition," Edison CEO Pedro Pizarro said on a company earnings call. "Absent additional evidence, we believe that SCE equipment could have been associated with the ignition." The company attributed the earnings decline primarily to higher operations and maintenance expenses and the net impact of regulatory decisions at Southern California Edison (SCE). Higher interest expenses at the parent company level also contributed to the decrease. SCE said it expected to invest $6.2 billion to prevent wildfires being caused by, or affecting, its system. The company also plans to launch a wildfire recovery compensation program. California has a wildfire fund that protects utilities like SCE from wildfire liability. On Wednesday, Bloomberg News reported that California Governor Gavin Newsom was proposing legislation to bolster the state's fund with an additional $18 billion for utilities. Electricity ratepayers would contribute half the money through a monthly fee while the other half would be funded by utility companies that benefit from the fund, including Edison International, the report said. The company reaffirmed its forecast for adjusted earnings between $5.94 per share and $6.34 per share for 2025. Analysts expect $6.06 per share. The Rosemead, California-based company, posted second-quarter net income of $343 million, or 89 cents per share, compared with $385 million, or $1.14 per share, a year earlier.
