Chrysler - Where goest thou?

Way off topic perhaps, but I am POed at my car choices. Not too long ago, the Chrysler folks had created the Viper, the PT Cruiser and the Prowler. They made really unique cars and trucks, whether you liked them or not. You knew what they looked like and if you liked it, you really liked it.

I bought a Sebring JXi because I liked the style. When I heard they were bringing back one of my favorite old cars, the 300, known as the “Beautiful Brute” back in the day, I was excited. They rolled out the concept for the convertible and I drooled. And now I get an email about the new Sebring convertible and it is not butt ugly, its so boring I despise it. No style or character whatsoever!

What happened? The new styles for the trucks were a huge success. The new 300 and Magnum are doing well and their look is not to my liking, but very popular and cool. I don’t understand the dumbing down of this car…

New (Old) Banners and Logos

     A few people have asked lately, “Hey, what happened to the old Logos you had that changed every few minutes?”
     I did away with ‘em when I converted to Wordpress, and never really got around to doing much with this theme, aside from fixing the pixel shift in IE and adding the junk I wanted to.

     I took five minutes today to re-write them a little so they’d fit in against the blue background at the top of the page.  Turned the cron job back on. 

     Looks like they’re working!
