Default Denver Auto Show

I went to the Denver Auto Show today. Pretty much all the major manufacturers were there. I didn't see any concepts though. They an indoor Jeep trail which was pretty neat. I almost had the opportunity to drive a Challenger, but the line was long. I was stuck with test driving a Journey. Not a bad vehicle for a people hauler.

Of course, my favorite car was this one:


I'll add this one to my stable as soon as I hit the lottery.

Bat, her daughter, and I were in attendance on Saturday.
First thing we did was head over to the test drive section.

We had to suffer through a Chrysler 200 before they would let us test drive the Fiat 500. Here's the kicker with the 200. With only 656 miles on it when I test drove it, the transmission was shuddering whenever I brought it to a stop.

After we were done with the Fiat (which I really liked!), we were asked if we would answer a survey on the cars we drove. That's when I described the 200's transmission issues, and they then told me that after my test drive, they CEL came on, and they had to pull it out of the test drive rotation.

So, Chrysler's reliability still hasn't been improved any, and keeps my dollars going to other companies instead. Mazda just got my latest bundle of cash this time around.

BC.
