Take that how you want to.

If that is they cars you should maybe put Dodge on the Camaro because he probably isn't going to see you through those squint windows it has hehe. This is fun

Honda and Toyota employ thousands of Americans as well. Does that make them American companies?

I usually don't complain about grammar and sentence structure ,but I need help with a translation on this one. I'm not picking on you. I just can't understand the way you have it worded what exactly you were trying to spew.

Okay, I am saying the Camaro should say Dodge down the side because if you try to pass him he won't see you and will run over you LOL. Also, speaking of grammar, ou should have used complain and not complaint in that sentence. just sayin'.............

As the owner and enthusiast of a Dodge Magnum, I'll throw in my $.02...

After reading through the posts in this thread there were a few items that strike me as a little off. Diamler wasn't exactly a "cancer" to Chrysler. Afterall a large percentage of my Magnum is an old E-class. Thus, if it weren't for that short marriage, there would never have been a 300, Magnum, Charger, or Challenger. Well, maybe there would be, but they would have taken very different forms. And the creation of these vehicles revived the American automobile.

The new hash mark Dodge logo is their (poor) attempt to separate the car line from the truck line and attempt to make the car line a "sport" division. This is similar in nature to what GM was trying to do with Pontiac. The hash marks typically appear on sporty vehicles, thus the mental perception that "the new Dodge" car line is a sport brand. I know...it's a stretch.

While Fiat is making financial progress with Chrysler, I do question a lot of the (de)branding that they are doing. Dropping the ram badge from their car line is a mistake. It would be like dropping the bowtie from the car line and writing Chevrolet in its place. It's too much. They need a logo that the general public instantly recognizes and identifies with. It needs to be small and simple. The ram head works for all of this. It needs to stay.

As for the Magnum itself, it was a mistake to drop it. There wasn't anything else on the road like it and there still isn't. Now they are talking about revamping the Durango and calling it a Magnum. Wtf are you guys doing? A Magnum is not a truck! Either bring it back for what it was or leave it alone. Good or bad, people know what a Durango is regardless of what you call it. Chevy did a similar thing with the Cobalt. It's just a new/redesign Cavalier. They didn't fool anyone. But at least they had the respect to use a new name rather than recalling one of their best sellers from the past and sticking the name on something that doesn't fit the idea of what that name represents.

Outside of the LX/LY cars, there really isn't anything else that Chrysler offers that I am interested in. The trucks are nice, but I'm not a truck person. So, when they start messing around with the LX/LY cars, I can't help but cringe a little. Leave the ram head alone Chrysler.

That why I said I don't usually complain about it because I'm not perfect. I just didn't get what you were trying to say that's all. I make grammar errors all the time. Usually from trying to type on an iphone which sucks. I hope no hard feeling.

boxmonkeyracing · 05-26-2010, 02:00 PM

shouldn't it be dodge III instead of dodge II? I mean this is the second time they've been saved by the government so this is their third iteration as a car company. . .lol

There, I fixed it for you.
Although I don't really know what "A." has to do with dodge changing their logo.

I agree, it doesn't. I live at the drag strip and while a few run down in the low 13's, the camaros are running faster. Problem is , it's real hard to tell what is stock and what isn't. I have seen some impressive #'s out of srt8 though.

Muscle Master · 05-26-2010, 02:43 PM

First off...

Better than the Current SS badge

And second.

Maybe it's more to it than that ... everythings not finale yet

and imho ... this would make a great logo itself:
