I realize that I was just making a funny, personally I dont care what the new models look like as long as they stay in business and honor my warranty.

I hope they let Dodge keep the Dodge look and not fruit it up like the little cars. I still think a truck like this at a reasonable price will sell not only to business but just people like me whole don't like getting stuck in the snow, might pull a trailer a few times a year weighing tops 8000lbs, and I like pickups. When you go buy a couch you can have em throw it the back save delivery charges and get it sooner.

I hear the Dodge Ram will be downsized to meet the new fuel standards, the hemi will stay but will be downsized to a single hemi head displacing 1600cc "s. the ram name will be dropped and replaced with the all new" Dodge Lamb ". It will come in white only unless u want to pay a globol warming fee to offset the extra heat it would put off if it was a darker color, Since Fiat didn't have to pay a single penny I don't see it as a sale just a transfer of wealth as promised but not to the american poor as I thought he meant but to world poor

qicvick,
I hear you on the transfer of 20% ownership and control of Chrysler to a foreign company for not one f$%#ing penny. This is just like forcing the closure of hundreds of dealership which cost the company nothing to operate. I have said before that there is some serious stuff going on here. It will come to the surface during the next year or so, but it will be too late to stop most of it. Obama and his crooks have an agenda. I would much rather had seen Dodge sold to another company. If you look at history of the auto industry, trading and selling of lines has been done many times. Heck, how do you think Walter Chrysler got Dodge, he bought it.

There is a lot to that. All trucks will have to get 30 mpg by 2016. How many trucks get 30 mpg today? My 18 year old son has a two wheel drive 4 cylinder mini pickup, and it only gets 26 mpg. That 4 banger is going to be at the top end of the horsepower spectrum for pickup trucks in a few more years. We're all going to be driving goverment built sub sub compact hybrids with horrible quality, similar to those crappy compact cars they drive in Russia.
