I say scrap the Chrysler luxury SUV, and give them another cross-over instead. The Pacifica isn't bringing in many buyers...

I don't want to be mean or anything, but I hope it flops like a halibut in a dinghy.   Aspen. Sheesh.   On the bright side, it's not like they're dragging a once-great name through the mud of "repurposing" (see also "Charger"). ;-} Replies to this message: navigator89 (Jun 18, 2005 11:05 am)

Replying to: wale_bate1 (Jun 17, 2005 7:57 am) What's so bad about Aspen? IMO, it's a lot better than some alpha numerical name, such as "LX470".   I was thinking Chrysler would use a name such as Conquest, Cordoba or Imperial but Aspen sounds great.   I'm glad the vehicle has a real name, not something alpha numerical like FX45, QX56, X5, ML500, G500, H2, etc.

You never drove an Aspen, did you? ;-]   I think full-size, body on frame SUVs are damn stupid to begin with, and Chrysler getting into a rapidly fading picture even moreso, which is why my disdain. The future is (according to every industry analyst) that car-based crossovers are the next wave before we touch down aagin and actually admit we wanted wagons in the first place, but didn't want anyone to know we had spouses and kids!   I think it's a bad business decision.   As far as the name goes, my points are A) the Aspen name was nothing to be proud of whatsoever, and B) it's OK to stick it on some pudknocker SUV because it can't be sullied any further that it already is!

Replying to: wale_bate1 (Jun 18, 2005 6:33 pm) Yeah I too wondered why they'd opt for another SUV with the tide turning against them. If they 300's success gave them a good feeling and some extra cash, why not spend a little of that on the 300's interior in the way of better plastics? Or more importantly spend that money on the upcoming Sebring/Stratus sedan replacements, like in making them non-rental cars. I applaud the 300 and all, but they really need their next generation mid-size family sedans and minvans to be similar hits to keep things going because eventually the 300's time in the spotlight will be over.   M Replies to this message: gsanson (Dec 18, 2005 12:55 pm)

Can we rename this forum to Chysler Aspen since we know what this future vehicle will be called?? Replies to this message: kirstie_h (Jul 03, 2005 7:31 am) navigator89 (Jul 04, 2005 5:07 am)
