You have been chosen to rise Chrysler up from the ashes. You have full control over manufacturing and design, and all reasonable expenses are subsidized in order for you to improve your manufacturing, as long as you keep the American military supplied with high quality Wranglers. You are now in control of Dodge, Jeep, RAM, and Plymouth if you wish. You must make the Chrysler in the USA. What do you build to revive the Chrysler brand, and why?
>>28771513EMPLOY MORE JEETS
>>28771516damn saar damn
Same way they saved themselves time and time again. Cheap small economy cars where a majority of the R+D money spent is on advertising it on basic cable between liquor commercials
>>28771521PREMIUM AMERICAN
>>28771521This. Actually make dodge do affordable cars that go up to sports, then have Chrysler be premium. American auto companies used to have it right, but the desprate need to copy euro brands killed them
>>28771521>>28771527What would your flagship(s) be like? The K platform? Dodge really screwed up on that time and time over since the Neon got scrapped. Remember the Caliber? What about the Dart II which wasn't even an American car? They're junkyard trash after 5 years. Come on. You have full manufacturing control, you can build more than just a shitbox. What would you have in it that brings it above other shitboxes? A better motor? Hybrid options? Manual transmissions? Open source Linux-based infotainment systems?
>>28771513Fire all of the jeetsMake the current crossovers not-shit to print some money, then if money printing succeedsBring back Neon, the SRT4 gets the 2.0 turbo from GiuliaNew Hemi, aluminum block, all flaws fixed, competitive with LTLX2 platform with new Charger, Challenger, 300 and MagnumMake a new Viper
Damn I didn't realize Chrysler had a jeet problem, is this true?
>>28771533Who doesn't?
>>28771530>aluminum block HEMIGonna have to disagree on that
>>28771533technically the canadian jeets at Brampton were their best workers
>>28771533>American company hires jeet>jeet fires all Americans>jeet imports jeets>Americans seemingly don't care when they should be rioting
>>28771538And I'm gonna disagree with your disagreement
>>28771543It's>American company moves to Canada due to dirty deals with Canadian givernment>Canadian workers do really well, but become expensive>Canadian government shoves jeets thinking they will just do slave labor>jeets take over and nepotism hire each other to death>company goes so much to shit that they us Trump as an excuse to try and escape back to the US
>>28771534Finland.
>>28771527I remember when they copied euro brands by making V8 trucks, too.
>>28771513>How would you fix ChryslerEasy.Just make a Tesla clone.
>>28771521they tried that with the dart/200 and it didnt work. and honestly i dont know why someone would buy a hyundai over one either
>bring back last gen charger>bring back challenger>bring back hemi V8s>don’t charge assrape pricesDone
>>28771530Leave Viper alone, they would just fuck it up anyway.
Just make cheap big cars like an accord size car for the price of a civic Sell them to rental firms
Cut production down to wrangler, compass, grand cherokee, grand voyager, 300, and something small like a calibre
>>28771530>>28772048Using Italian engines or just rebadging Italian compacts is a good way to ensure your compact fails. If Chrysler wants their compact to succeed, they either need to make one from the ground up or rebadge a Japanese one. Sadly, being under the European umbrella has been holding Chrysler back since the 2000s. Bring back MitsubishiXchrysler partnership. They didn’t make the best cars, but you would have all the shit you’re asking for if it were just Mitsubishi and Chrysler. Chrysler has the balls to green light projects, Mitsubishi has the material to fill in whatever gaps Chrysler has so they both make money and innovate. That is how we first got the Chrysler compacts to begin with.Chrysler actually tried a lot of shit suggested in this thread, but if it overlapped with an existing European car under the same conglomerate, it would usually get shitcanned or heavily gimped.
Hear me out, >Open Source Dodge EV project>it has no UConnect>but it has Ubuntu or equivalent, with the ability to flash custom ROMs>the parts are swappable by user and between models>the heated seats run on Linux>the temperature control system is copied from Tesla's octovalve design to minimize hoses, with enough difference that Dodge doesn't get sued (Dodge would have to consult lawyers, industry experts, and industry lawyers.) >you can control the infotainment on the car from your phone or by plugging in a keyboard or a ps5 controller or something>spyware LTE is optional>Someone ELSE'S high quality battery, which can be user swappable >It has mechanical door handles, optional AI offline semi-self driving features (highway cruise, park assist, unpark, stopgo, etc), large enough cupholders (Euros never do this right), and resistance to being rekt by spills>Driver monitor is optional>matter of fact, you can have a CVCK model and a BVLL model, where the CVCK model is completely locked down and cucked, whilst the BVLL model is fully open but offline>it's fast and drifty due to RWD standard and 4XE optional, except the CVCK model which is FWD biased 4XE or FWD>CVCK model can come with a free 5 year subscription to whatever streaming service you want, for your passengers only>CVCK model also has IQ assist (self-driving safety features that can't be disabled, such as lane control assist and parking assist)Also for Jeeps:>hybrid equivalent powertrain is 4cyl or hurricane 6cyl, with cylinder deactivation optional on the 6>3.6 motor requires upgrades but stays as an option in the Jeeps for now, at least until Chrysler designs a better motor>eTorque modules should be publicly available for people to build, because OEM Lock should be illegal
>>28772049yup it's like how last gen laptops or hard drives or whatever are dirt cheapthey shoudl sell basic Hemi Musso' cahz for like $25-30K. imagine how many young dumb kids would buy them. GayR86 and Miata would cease to exist. Even Mustgay Egoboost would be outcumpeted
>>28771513Don't. Let it die with the nanoscopic shred of dignity it has left. Don't pull another Lancia where they parade its rotting corpse around for decades making nothing but one utter shitbox because they don't know what to do with the brand anymore and/or can't afford to.
>>28772049>>28772337Imagine the gen III hemi upsetting the LS dominance through junkyard numbers. That would be something.
>>28771529>A better motor?Obviously, though normies only really care that it doesn't blow up>Hybrid options?Pretty much mandatory nowadays because of CAFE>Manual transmissions?No one cares about it>Open source Linux-based infotainment systems?No one cares about it
just bee yourself :)
>>28772668>nigga who hates manual is also nigga who hates Linuxdayum
>>28772931Not even close to what I said
>>28771521If Dodge released the AriesK in a two door with 2.2 turbo SuperBee package, (Plymouth Reliant as RoadRunner), Chrysler would have dominated the auto industry for 100 years.

I love how the mathematical top quote is "fire all the jeets"
