German automotive giant Daimler has invested in electric-car company they will stand behind every car because thats the only way you can get them off the lot is to push them.
it will be so much fun to watch them all panicking over dead battery disposal in a few years
No they tried that Chrysler thing once and did not like it.
haha this is funny, diamler that usta own chrysler is buying tesla. which is a lotus body btw. and chrysler is/was making their own ev based off that same lotus body. dodge circut i think. but anyway there will be nothing rolling off the chrysler assembly lines in 2010
Daimler increased Chrysler’s quality ten-fold, but the UAW had already doomed the company.
no DBAG raped chrysler. their quality was pretty good pre-DBAG. the fit and finish of my 1997 intrepid was awesome. and I put 175,000 miles on and gave it to my sister she probably has it up to 185,000 now
You were lucky then. The Intrepid was by-and-large a POS, especially the four cylinder. The 300 series employed D-B engineering and it almost saved the company. Jeep was also doing fine until it watered down the line with the Patriot and that other little crackerbox. Also, doing away with the straight six demeaned the Wrangler.
i have an 09 patriot and I love it. tho the interior is no where near as nice, I didnt buy it to go mudding so its only a 4x2
