Default Re: How many Crossfire owners feel their driving a Mercedes-Benz

Daimler bought Chrysler for two main reasons, it's ability to get a new design into the market place faster then anyone else by a wide margin, and for Chrysler's design department, with it's ability to come up with new ideas and shapes that spark the imagination of the public.The PT Cruiser and the Prowler are two good examples of that. In return Diamler gave Chrysler the best engineering that they had at the time, the five speed automatic transmission and a suspension system, although old in design, was far better then anything else developed in the US. I think both companies got some benefit from the deal.
