I just looked at the article for the Journey, it's got a great interior for 20k.  That's a pretty good deal.

Yeah, the Journey is Chryslers step in the right direction for vehicles.  Interiors are the new battlefield in cars and chrysler is late to the game again.

Just looked at some pics of this thing.  Looks like the D has some decent competition.  I like the look of this thing.

I hope that the challenger can bring in the customers and the salesmen can turn that traffic into sales of these.  From the looks and interior and price it's a great vehicle at a good price.  If it's reliable too then it should sell well, and chrysler needs that.

[moparman]

It'll sell well, why even worry about reliability with a lifetime warranty.  Chrysler isn't going to put out a lemon of a vehicle that they have to warrant for life.

That's a good price for a sharp looking car, suv... whatever.  I like it.

I'm not a fan of the 'crossover' suv.  If it doesn't have 4wd then it's a glorified station wagon and just call it a beefy car or whatever.
