Unhappy I just find it hard to believe that there is a big enough volume markrt for that

But what I did get to see is the very early stages of the new 300N. We have one at work that is a mule. It appears that it has the new cars substructure, suspension & diveline with a current body "cobbed" onto it. It does the the 5.9 Hemi in it! This one has an automatic which appears to be the Mercedes trans. It has 18" wheels, 4 wheel discs & RWD with independant rear suspension. Looks good so far!

The Blackwood is being dropped and I bet the Escalade is not far behind

I thinks it's a bad idea. If you have that kind of money to spend on a pickup then get an srt 10.

They would be doing better to build the Charger then a luxo boat built off the Ram. Did any of you see they are going to kill the current Neon chassis in favor of a Mitsubishi! Yuk!

L.C.D.

Last I heard the current neon will be replaced by something built by Hyundai.
