Also never had problems with my 1995 Dodge Stratus 5 speed, it had over 100k miles and still got 42mpg on the hwy the day I sold it to a friend who's mom needed a car and was down on her luck. Would you like to hear about the Chevy's I've owned that lived in the shop? Every car maker has a few bad cars that make it out of the dealership, I don't hold it against Chevy that my last 2 were constantly in the shop or stranded me in parking lots across the town. From having owned 4 Dodges and 3 Chevy's in the last 20 years, my Dodge's were far superior in build quality. Now if Chevy could give this car the LT1 and a decent exterior it might sell some vehicles but looking at this SS and comparing it to an SRT8 or even a 6 cylinder Charger like my own it doesn't look as good to me. The Charger exterior in pure sexy and the new interior's on the 2011's are far better than this SS. My problem is my wife liked the Charger so much she took it and now I have to find a car for myself, right now it is between the SRT8 if they could get the 8 speed auto in it or the Camaro SS if they can get the LT1 in it. Tried sitting in a Mustang GT but don't fit, knees kept hitting the steering wheel, needs telescoping feature bad like the SS and Charger.
So you have been a member since 2010 and only made 3 posts touting Chrysler products....
Having owned several Chrysler products in the past I can say they were the worst cars I have ever owned. Last one was a 2007 jeep Liberty that got terrible gas mileage, the door seals leaked every time I drove in the rain, any repairs were outrageously expensive and working on anything on it was a PITA.
