Chryslers grandson wants to save the brand

[Milo]

Didn't they stop making the Challenger and Charger due to slow sales? I recall one of those YouTube articles about the 10 fastest and 10 slowest selling vehicles and Stelantis had many of the 10 slowest sellers, with the Ram 3500 something like a 300 day supply on lots! Also not selling well were 1500's, Grand Wagoneers, Hornet, and a couple others.

I know there are massive stock piles; but I don't know if it's a generic overall problem; or just not the models people are willing to pay for.

I mean, I am not in the market, not at MSRP, not at 10% off, and frankly not at 25% off. I'm happy with my 19 Ram, and plan on keeping it for a min of 10 years. The new models don't offer anything I'm looking for; But I'm not the normal consumer. I try to pay off vehicles, and keep them until they are used up. At this point, even if I could get a 2025 Ram 1500 Big Horn 4x4, 5.7 (or 3.0 Cyclone) for $300/month for 5 years, I wouldn't.

I really haven't heard of Ram/Dodge having any more problems than GM/Ford. Yes, they all have some issues at times; but no massive, brand or even model wide specific problems, that would eliminate them from a perspective buyers option.

Let’s not pretend we don’t see the elephant in the room.
This global government coordinated global warming, EV mandate fiasco, is causing issues for legacy automakers around the globe, and that’s our ruler’s intention.
Every existing automaker company is feeling the pain.
That’s by government design.
Companies like Stellantis , that are more horizontally integrated are going to suffer more. Doesn’t mean they’re not good, they’re simply too widespread with traditional popular vehicle production to keep profitable with the ever tightening regulation grip of these participating governments

Here's the current slowest (and fastest sellers). Nice to see Ram trucks are off the slowest selling list now but Stelantis and BMW are well represented!

I'm always amazed when someone posts a "list" in the form of a video.
Presumably there's a list there somewhere that would take the viewer 5 seconds to scan, but an 8 minute video from who-knows-who? Sounds authoritative.
Good luck, who's watching that.

I have watched some of their stuff; but I can't stand the old man's accent... They do seem to have good information though

Stellantis is getting $334 million from the feds to keep the Belvidere IL plant open, a promise that Stellantis gave during negotiations.

Stellantis plant in Belvidere, Illinois, gets $334M from feds for reopening, manufacturing of EVs

Don’t be fooled.
This video isn’t about sales.
It’s a sales vs inventory. Very misleading

Take for example #6. It only sold 1,200. That’s peanuts, but misleads people into thinking it’s selling good , but they simply didn’t import many, it misleads people and makes them click on the video

The Charger, Challenger, 300 sold very well until the end. They stopped making them because they didn’t get good enough fuel mileage and they were buying credits from Tesla and paying penalties.

That's kinda crazy, wife's Charge gets good milage, probably 26 mpg, with the 5.7. I have a hard time calling that bad milage... My work Explorer might hit 26.5, with a 4 cylinder
