Last week I was able to rent a Dodge Challenger from the fleet where I work. I had the car for three days and put a lot of miles on it. When I got back and was checking online at a different website and I immediately began having suspension problems. No, it wasn't the Challenger's suspension, because that car was great. I'm talking about my psyche, since I was having to suspend my belief. I spent three days and nearly 1,000 miles in a new Challenger. Yet I read comments about how cheap the interior is and how bad the performance is. I'm tired of replying to such nonsense. Our fleet has many new vehicles of all types. FCA products are far from the worst and offer performance near or at the top of the segment they fit into. I like the seats and the interior of the Challenger and it is a great cross country tourer.

That is why I have decided to come over to Mopar Insiders. I don't like having to suspend my beliefs because they are based on reality. I sample other brands on a daily basis, often driving some vehicles back to back with FCA products. Yeah I'm biased towards the Mopar brands, but it is a rational bias.

For years i have enjoyed your down to earth comments on "the site that shall not be named" and look forward to following you here.

Personally i think it is good to have a place for moaners and here on moparinsiders normal people can compare notes.

Tell us more about your Challenger trip. Please........................

Welcome! It's funny, on the "unnamed site" there was a PT Cruiser thread asking the number of miles on our PTs. Many answered, including me with my now 447,000 mile PT Cruiser. Those kinds of results get a yawn over there, yet some fourth hand story about an alleged failure, or a first hand story mishandled by a dealer get universally applied to all Chrysler/FCA products. Too frustrating to read. We just need to hit the critical mass here to be able to sustain threads a reasonable amount. Much better on my nerves here.
