well to us dodge fans...it has been well known that cerberus just bought chrysler to make a quck profit and run....and daimler messed us up good before that...so we havent had a chance to fix things...but we are. And the ram commercials are being played nonstop due to it being a new product and gas is cheap, they want to sell as many as they can. I am mad that they dont market the challenger at all...it is one of their best products in a long time. And I think deep down inside you would drive a dodge if given one,because it is american and very nice...i would drive a mustang if givien one...i support my 3!...UAW screwed things up for gm and taxpayers had to save them....so it goes both ways.

Like I said, I love the Challenger, and if they weren't so overpriced I'd get one in a heartbeat. Regarding the Ram, most of the American public knows that we'll come out of this recession at some point, and then gas is back up to $4 a gallon. I support American made, and I drive American made. That being said, I do not support the lack of responsibility assumed by corporate America these days. When Cerberus purchased Chrysler, the responsibility of their well-being was purchased also. Instead they are letting the American taxpayer deal with the consequences by sucking more money from the government that it doesn't have.

Could be true. Problem is, it takes years for enough reliability data to be collected before any notable improvement can be claimed. It makes sense that they are spending a lot on reliability because they were so far behind most of the other automakers.

Id rather drive a Ford than a Chrysler.
LOL I dont think so. In the recent cold spell of -26c my Magnum has NEVER failed to start on the first turn, in fact EVER in its almost 4 years lifespan. Its high qulality through and through!!

Honestly, I havent had a single thing go wrong on this apart from wear and tear of pads etc. thats about it! I am very impressed and would definitely buy another again!
