Default The Dodge Caliber...

... commercial was just on. It reminds me of a Jeep Grand Cherokee and Durango mixed together. Not sure of what I think yet. It looks nice, so I'd have to look at it some more to make a good decision of what I think.

It is not nearly as big as either of those, here's some pics:




It might grow on you, I hated it when I first saw it and heard that it was replacing the neon, but now I love it..

I dont love it, but i dont hate it either. The only problem i have is the SRT not in AWD, and the interior looks pretty cheap...so does the Neon's but you think they would have fixed that problem with a brand new model! (I am down with the cooler in the glove box...whoever came up with hat is a genius)

I don't think that the interior is cheap at all. A big improvement from the Neons. (no offense intended)

Yeah, the ChillZone is pure genius..

So basically, knowing DC, the Caliber is built on the Neon chasis, like the PT Cruiser.

When my "soon-to-be ex-wife" and I took a 350Z for a test drive, the interior reminded me of the inside of a VW bug with all of it's plastic. It didn't even have a lot of storage space on the inside. That sucked. Still, it's a nice car.

Are they going to make the Caliber into a SRT series also? That would be an interesting looking.... uh, SUV?
