Twenty year old product with no refresh in ten years, no marketing support, and no replacement in sight stopped selling over time. Check. Thanks for the valuable market insight.
I know the Italian princess royalty pockets are lined deep, but I’m not sure they will weather this storm. The nearly unanimous responses I see on forum after forum, and on line ads, indicate that the Mopar faithful are just about done with this bunch. And that’s coming from the ones who should...
Amazing. Quarter century ahead of its time. I am never ceased at amazement with the minds of that era of Chrysler. What might have been. Thanks again Eaton.
lol. Stellantis……….setback………….. delay. Didn’t read your article, just the headline . Is there really any need to read these articles about this stagnant outfit anymore?
Still have one. Much to my sadness, the Lebaron it was attached to is gone, but kept the key chain. One of the most rock solid reliable cars I ever owned.
On the flip side, might be a real bargain come along if a person had a need or interest. Just be sure you buy the extended warranty to infinity to cover that Carlos quality.
So are we saying these 15 year old designs built two years ago and thrust down the dealers throats with no replacement in sight, at outrageous prices no less, are languishing on lots because they have v8s? We can argue the merits of v8 versus straight six, blah blah blah but please don’t try to...
You’re exactly right here, and why I have expressed the opinion for some time now that a Chrysler is gone. It will not be back. And Dodge is maybe 4 years behind it. Jeep and Ram is what will remain, if we’re lucky .
I can grasp it about as well as the folks who can’t accept that without Lee the whole sad story would have ended even sooner. As I’ve said before, I understand what he did…… yay. I also understand the abysmal marketing failures he rode herd over. And he, like every other auto exec of the time...
They already had everything? Talk about amateur hour. So you’re going to argue that the Chrysler and Dodge brands were kept in fresh product through various segments they had participating through the SM years? They were both allowed to die on the vine!!! Jeep was the only brand kept relevant...
Agree , the North Americans did a good job guided by Giles in riding these old Daimler models for all they were worth. Good cars. Solid, beautiful cars with a sound design. I Own several now. I love them. But with the exception of the marginally successful Cherokee, I ask again , what NEW model...
Exactly. My point exactly. Thank you. And I got news for you boys, get ready because if the end wasn’t already here , it is now. Look at the members of the new interim executive committee. One native North American. No one, none, with any ties to Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram legacy . Stell anus will...
And again I ask, show me a model HE developed that was a market success, not a left over Daimler. Everything you mentioned was already in the portfolio and for sale when he came on board. What did we get from him that was a MARKET SUCCESS. He made money. Good on him. After the government handed...
I honestly have to think there’s no one steering the ship. This one is staring everyone in the face and they will not act on it. How frustrating ! This is something I would be a strong candidate for to replace my 2017 standard cab short bed 1500. To have the vehicle engineered , in production...
I’m sure you’ll suggest that Lee also had nothing zero zilch to do with saving the decrepit place in 1979-80, right? Let the man lie in rest ! And what exactly is it in hindsight that Sm did other than ride a rising tide that ALL automakers benefited from for a few years? Show me the list of new...
Yours was a Mercedes five speed. Totally different transmission. With that said your experience was still unusual as the Mercedes Tran was noted for being nearly bulletproof
