Uhhh…Chrysler introduced the hellcat and all of its variations under Eurotrash ownership. Hellcat is the antithesis of European style.

Went to lunch with a coworker a week ago that has one. Extremely nice but I would never pay 100k for any vehicle let alone a jeep product.

Bruh, Toyota isn't magical. They have a pretty solid reliability history, but are notoriously milquetoast and outdated from design and technology standpoints.


I understand that point of view. To me, a vehicle is merely transportation from point A to B. I want to do it in the most reliable and economical way possible. I'll give up air-conditioned seats for jumping in my 2012 Tunda with 250k on it and just turning the key with no worry about anything. Knowing it'll go 300k + with no issues is the most important factor for me. I despise vehicle payments, sometimes necessary,, but I want to limit having one as much as possible.

Where did you get those numbers? Are they all sitting at the factory bc they aren’t sitting at the dealerships.

I’ve rode in one several times, while super nice, it’s still a jeep and not worth that price

Eta: it’s like the corvette dorks that think they are driving a sports car

Not sure where he got that number specifically but the trades have been talking about the glut of basically all Jeeps for months. You can try searching "Jeep market day supply". You used to be able to search the vehicle and "MDS" but since multi-displacement systems have become widespread you will get more results for that now.

I’m not arguing that but I am seriously questioning a 500+ day supply.

Why anyone would buy a vehicle other than Toyota is beyond me.

IDK about that trim level, but the Charger overall was a post-Daimler / pre-Fiat release.

I wasn't really thinking about the design of the products, though. I just think that Daimler, Fiat, etc. have tended to underestimate just how down-market Chrysler products have always been perceived in America.

Americans understand that Chrysler does some great things, but they also approach those brands with a certain hesitancy.

I realize that Subaru has a fanatical fanbase, especially amongst the population of women who have lickher licenses.. and i actually did a double take the other day to look at a new Outback Wilderness that was super-nice.. but are they really more reliable than Toyotas ? I genuinely dont know .

Okay cool. I bought a Jeep Grand Cherokee at 1.9% in February, but auto incentives change from month to month, model to model, and trim to trim. Just because you got a good long term rate on a Silverado doesn’t mean Jeep is offering that on Grand Wagoneers.
