Re: [Chrysler300] NEW 300C from Chrysler!

I absolutly agree with you...every word.
If all would vote with their wallets, the problem would be solved. I'm
Detroits worst nightmare, I've owned 70+ cars and only 1 was bought new. I
buy and drive what pleases the inner me (there must be 2 inner me's latly),
in all these years, there's only been 1 4 door, and that was given to me for
parts.
Even tho the last 25 years of my working life was spent working for dealers,
I couldn't get excited enough about the yearly offerings to buy one. The
exception wos our 90 Voyager, which we bought to be able to take our ageing
parents around. It just turned over 250,000 miles, used daily, and going
strong.

So complain to Detroit, and don't buy the bland stuff "they" say we want,
and maybe they'll get our message.
