Replying to: merc1 (Jun 19, 2005 10:40 pm) The reason why Chrysler is choosing to make a full size SUV even though trends show SUV popularity declining is because it already exists. Why spend all that money developing and testing and engineering a brand new vehicle when the Dodge Durango has done all that already. The fact is it will cost substantially less to design a few cosmetic interior/exterior upgrades than a whole new vehicle. Chrysler already has a crossover, the Pacifica, but no full size SUV, and while the market for one is small, Chrysler isn't gambling much here, with only a few sales it could already pay for itself many times over.

since the development costs are low, even if they only move a few units they could make money.
#26 of 84 Engine idea for Chrysler... by 79customd Dec 30, 2005 (8:00 am)
Chrysler should cram a smaller displacement better fuel economy engine in it a give it the name the SEMI HEMI

I think this is probably the first photo to come out. The Aspen looks great.   Replies to this message: jchan2 (Jan 08, 2006 6:42 am)

Replying to: navigator89 (Jan 08, 2006 12:54 am) I think it looks pretty good also- there isn't too much chrome, the front end isn't too overwhelming- it looks just right.   I think I like this more than the Durango...

We shall wait for pictures of the interior...   I wonder how much they spent on this project. Replies to this message: navigator89 (Jan 08, 2006 8:25 am) rcf8000 (Jan 08, 2006 9:01 am)

Replying to: jchan2 (Jan 08, 2006 6:43 am) Hopefully it's not some redressed Durango interior with extra wood and chrome. The QX56 and LX470 are guilty of doing this with their lower cousins.   Cadillac made the same mistake back in 2002 but now the Escalade interior looks different from the Yukon/Tahoe and has a high quality look.   The full size luxury SUV is really getting competitive, with the new Escalade already here, a new Navigator coming and a LX470 replacement not too far away.

Replying to: navigator89 (Jan 08, 2006 8:25 am) I like the exterior styling, but now we will have to see whether they spent enough money on the interior. I'll be impressed if they put in a console mounted shifter. A column shifter just serves to remind you of the vehicle's pickup truck roots.

http://www.leftlanenews.com/2006/01/10/detroit-2006-2007-chrysler-aspen/   Sorry rcf8000, it's got a column mounted shifter - and even worse the Durango interior.   I don't find the interior to be as good as stylish as the Navigator, Escalade, or LX470. Come on Chrysler what were you thinking?   Well...at least the exterior styling is nice. Replies to this message: rcf8000 (Jan 10, 2006 8:37 am)
