a full redesign is scheduled for a late ‘09 MY release.

so the viper is moving safely up the HP food chain from the Challenger. This is just a cost effective program that has great profit potential.

saying: “the flexible manufacturing as pioneered by DCX…” or “the manufacturing process invented by DCX” is a FAR CRY from using DCX as an example of how the flexible manufacturing process can be successfully implimented.

Try to twist my words all you want, the message is clear… I used DCX as an example…and the challenger is one example within DCX…

I never came close to saying that DCX invented this.

what does that mean if it is not a deliberate attempt to misinform the reader that dcx created flexible manufacturing, why not say Toyota style as it is more correct

you are reading WAY too far between the lines to attempt to nail me on something that I never came close to saying.

The WSJ article mimics exactly what I was saying. Or do you consider the WSJ article to also explicitly state that DCX invented this as well?

“As more manufacturers switch to a DCX style of flexible manufacturing, model turnaround becomes less expensive and the breakeven point is dramatically reduced.”
you are suggesting that DCX invented this form of manufacturing technique

DUMBASS you are so pro CHrysler youcan’t even see the truth any more

did you even read any of what I pasted from the Wall Street Journal? let me re-paste for you.
“The launch highlights some development and manufacturing advantages that have emerged for Chrysler recently. As part of its restructuring a few years ago, the car maker overhauled the way it designs and manufactures cars to cut time and cost.”

is ‘reading comprehension’ not a part of your vocabulary?

btw, nice name… way to hide behind me when making a moronic post.

The Challenger will be the fourth vehicle produced from the same components used to make Chrylser’s hot-selling 300 sedan. While the first vehicle cost $1 billion or more to develop, the others each cost about a third of that, auto experts estimate. Chrysler will reap other savings because it will build all four of the cars on one production line at a plant in Brampton, Ontario.

Reusing parts also cut the time it takes to develop the car. Chrysler first showed a Challenger concept last January. At the same time, GM presented a concept for its own muscle car, a new Camaro, but that car is still at least two years from production.”

This goes back to my post 2 days ago about DCX’s emerging use of flexible manufacturing.

The one thing that I am confused about: On this timeframe, the Challenger would be on the LX platform… I thought it was going to be an LY?

Really? That explains why all of those new-fangled Ford Mustangs are just sitting around the new car lots, not doing anything. Heck, I heard my local FO-MO-CO dealer is offering two for one to get rid of them!!

//still can’t figure out why ford is going broke

The only brand worth buying is GM, get that through your thick skulls people

The Camaro will probably be made in Mexico. The only true American made cars today are Toyota and Hyundai.

Somebody should work on a ’shop of this thing with a front bumper on it, since that is what the production one will probably have. Also a ragtop, and for fun, the four door version the ‘bean counters’ would rather they build.

/because ‘bean counters’ are teh suck

and, two doors. (yes, disgruntled charger reference)

/I’m so waiting for the white with black vinyl interior Dodge Challenger VP Vanishing Point Edition®
//Hopefully it has pills in the glovebox

I am so going to save up 30K and deliver it to whichever american car company can deliver me the RWD street machine first.

Chevy or Dodge

Period.

That is my “Challenge” to you, Domestic Car Gods…
