Using a brand of humor you should understand honeeagle, this thread reads like a bunch of Ford boys circle jerkin'. Almost every single one of you boys predicting the demise of Chrysler has a Ford in your signature line. Coincidence? I don't think so. It is good for a laugh though!!
Again, I await the release of the plan in the next few days before I make up my mind. And, as long as the Ram survives, I'll probably be fine with it.
Don't have a clue of what will happen but it will not be good. And Chysler sales are down 30%, doesn't look good for Chysler. However keep in mind that Chysler didn't do well in the Cash for clunkers, that was a give me to the unions. But it did clean out the inventory for Ford and GM. GBY...

I have owned 3 Dodge/Chrysler products in the last 15 years. Dodge Daytona turbo, Ram 1500, Chrysler Lebaron. They did not have the mega cab when I bought the Ford crew cab. The dodge crew cab was to small for my family at the time. Judge not lest ye be judged.

Besides calling the kettle black with your hater post...I will agree with you on waiting for the plan to pass judgment. From what I have read, the plan will include many current models cut from the lineup and only a few new ones introduced.
If I were still a Chrysler customer (thankfully we got rid of the devil pacifica that Chrysler refused to fix under warranty) I would feel uneasy about the "service" going forward for the car we had. That same fear may also really hurt the resell values of any of the modles cut. That isn't good for anyone.
Lastly, with so many Chrysler Dealerships now gone....if I had a Dodge truck, I also would be worried about service down the road. The Lack of dealers will create frustrated customers. The new Dodges appear to have major improvements over years previous but perception out there in the real world (yes life exists outside of RV.net) may be what hurts Dodge/Ram going forward, not to mention Chrysler.

Gosh, how did our forefathers do it with 10-15 kiddos ?
Easy. Back then. You could stack them in. Now you have to have a car seat for each one. Got 3 kids. Need three rows of seats. Time was, got 2 kids, and 2 friends. Thay all rode on the back of the truck. Won't let you do that now.
Life was so much easier then.

Actually quite the contrary my friend. Chrysler did do well during the C4C program and sold out of inventory of some of the better mpg models. The Caliber (even though I don't like the Caliber much) was actually in the top 10 models sold during the first month of the C4C program. The only reason it wasn't in the top 10 during the rest of the program was because of the previous factory shutdown during bankruptcy caused a shortage of inventory and there just weren't any more Calibers available for purchase. Don't believe me? I can pull Caliber sales numbers if you like and show you how they spiked during C4C. Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep also saw spikes in sales of other models as well. Your statement that the C4C program did nothing for Chrysler is absolutely false. Hell, my local Dodge/Chrysler/Jeep dealer looked like a ghost town until just recently. They are now just about fully stocked again from what I can tell as I drive by.
And RollingRock, I am most certainly not a "hater". Never have I longed for the demise of a particular brand like some of these guys seem to. You can almost see how giddy they are with their dire predictions, and I think that is quite sad. I know how many jobs would be affected by such a disaster, and I have compassion for my fellow worker. And, I don't "hate" the 6.0L PSD, I just want folks to be forewarned when considering that engine for purchase. Let's be honest, that engine does have issues that folks need to be aware of.
I don't care what Chrysler does. I will not buy anything again from them. Our last was a 1990 Le-baron with many problems and a smart mouth service manager. It was almost two years old when the transmission went out. When I got it back I traded it in two weeks.

So Dianne and Tom, 20 years ago you had one that gave some problems, and you to this day won't have one. My horror story is similar, but it was a Chevy, actually 2, I didn't learn the first time. I said the same thing you did for many years. Won't be a GM in my driveway, unless it belongs to a guest. That was a long time ago and I realize they all make some very fine vehicles these days. If I buy something tomorrow or next year, the decision will be made on a lot of things, hopefully I won't miss out on the option of considering an excellent product based on obsolete opinions.
