Generally speaking, production facilities don’t slow down or speed up, they just run more or less hours. To “slow” production, shifts are removed. The line is timed to stay efficient during operation but I’m sure there is some leeway in the process.
My guess is the options you ordered were...
I hope they keep the Renegade styled as a baby Wrangler. The Cherokee style will potentially be on Compass, Cherokee, Grand Cherokee, Grand Cherokee 3 row, Wagoneer and Grand Wagoneer. 6 models!! Yes there are differences in the details but Jeep doesn’t need to pigeon hole their designs. I...
The new inline 6 seems to be performing exceptionally well. I can see why the Hemi upgrades have been discarded in favor of the new engine. I’m worried about how many eggs are going into the I6 basket though.
Wow, I was not expecting GM to go bare knuckle with the union. This shows that GM believes they have long term options outside using union labor. It could be that they are expecting a dramatic decrease in sales volume, either through internal cuts of models or a market collapse (or both)...
I figure GM is trading a short term, costly inventory adjustment for a long term, cost effective labor agreement. The UAW needs to “strike” a deal quickly before the workers turn on their leadership. The seemingly never ending stream of corruption charges are tough enough to swallow when...
No surprise on the timing but glad to hear the convertible is still in the plan. A Hellcat powered muscle car/GT convertible would be the cats ***! Would Dodge go all out and use a folding hardtop or go with a more conventional soft top?
Is the tailgate available with the Rambox? I vaguely recall that it isn’t. A “Ram-Bed” package with both for a reduced price would be pretty nice.
I’d love to see some advertising that begins with multiple shots of GMC owners denting their tailgates on trailer hitches while the Ram owner...
Well, SnG is a highly desirable feature that should command a premium. It certainly is Chrysler’s star feature so to give it away for nothing on the lowest priced model doesn’t make much sense to me. Complaints over the price of the lowest priced, and likely low margin vehicles, is mostly...
The Voyager keeps being reported as a change in plans, but I don’t necessarily think that’s the case. The Pacifica likely hasn’t sold as well as expected, but it has done well and established itself as a premium model. The drag has mostly come from the Grand Caravan and it’s extremely good...
Great article Bob, thanks. Keeping my fingers crossed that the sins of past ecodiesels have been a exorcised.
Looking forward to your review of the new tailgate. I hope they are worth the wait!
