well i didint know that ekool was representin' the tdot
nice -a -job ... anyhow ...
srt 4 caliber = srt swamp monster , dodge hornet = even worse than the srt swamp monster
im not brand loyal when it comes to cars and manufacturers, frankly i try to buy something that is well built and alot of fun , dodge hit the nail on the head with the NSRT4, entry platform, big motor and crap options to keep the price lower( crank windows in the back , lol i love it ) it reminds me of the heyday of muscle cars when they took the cheapest base model and outfitteted it with the biggest motor possible and sold it for a cheap price ... im about cheap thrills and the NSRT satisfys my need for that, the fact that the motor is well built and essentially bulletproof unless you are really abusive is also a plus...
dodge recently from my standpoint has become the fun/performance brand of chrysler... good call ! however i think that people now a days are concerned with gas milage and affordable luxury, but there are still ppl like me that like the power/barebones package. I think that alot of high HP luxo car owners with challenger srt8 and charger srt8 and the 300C srt 8 are going to be disappointed with the resale value of thier cars in a few years time , they wont even take pickups and suv's in the states for trades anymore i hear ...
I think we are in the last gasp of the muscle car revival , how long can the mighty 5.7 L or 6.1 or 6.4 or even 8.3 v8 stay competitve in a market that is demanding better fuel economy and when 70 % of people are considering a hybrid as their next purchase..... whos going to pay all that money for an elephant on whels ( read chrysler aspen) when their residuals drop like the titanic in a year or two ... not to mention its a pig on gas ...
gotta say , i love my turbo 4 cylinder , infact i get better gas milage than with my old 2.0 L naturally aspirated 4 banger ( seriously) and its no slouch when trying to keep up with the big v8's out there ...
wake up chrysler .... wake up , you need a small car , something that everyone will buy i know nissan is going to build you a versa type small car but thats not enough ... you buried your head in the sand by pushing the minvan for so many years without thinking about what came next ...
i dont know why i care so much , i really dont , i guess i just dont want to see hard working canadians and americans loose their jobs becuase no one wants to buy a silly dodge nitro or fat heavy sedan with a monster 6.1 l V8 that marginally outperforms a lowly turbo 4 cyl....
im done now
