Aside from jeep and minivans, what do they make. The PT is a POS. The 300M was a great try, but ultimately failed. Dodge has nothing out there for the masses, in fact I have been looking around for one on the road and have not seen anything that was not a pick-up. Unfortunately Chevy and Ford are so far ahead in that market that it doesn't make sense to stay in. Good night and good luck. Losing Chrysler is not a bad thing.
