2008 Chrysler Town & Country Minivan

by Jeff on October 8, 2007

Completely redesigned for 2008, the new Chrysler Town & Country is hitting showrooms this month. Here’s what Chrysler Says:

George Murphy, senior vice president of Chrysler Group Marketing, says, “The 2008 Chrysler Town & Country and Dodge Grand Caravan offer the best amenities for today’s busy families. With a dual DVD system that plays different media at the same time, pinpoint LED lighting to red by, a table to play games or finish homework, a voice-activated navigation system with real-time traffic, power sliding doors and liftgate and YES Essentials cloth seats, every member of the family will enjoy their journey.”

First Drive: 2008 Chrysler Town & Country

Excerpt: Although Chrysler calls them all-new minivans—and they do get new exterior styling—the floorpan (the largest piece of sheetmetal in the vehicle) is a holdover, which makes possible the popular Stow ’n Go seating system, where the second- and third-row seats disappear into giant tubs in the floor. The floor wells serve as storage when the seats are upright. Stow ’n Go was introduced for 2005 to compete with the Odyssey and Sienna, which had similarly disappearing third rows. Read the full review here.

The 2008 Chrysler Town & Country represents the fifth all-new version of the vehicle that created the minivan market (and the name) in 1983. Some 11 million sales later, show models unveiled in January at Detroit’s North American International Auto Show suggest that Chrysler’s minivans will be better and more family friendly than ever.

by Jeff on October 5, 2007

In an effort to get back into the retail sales game, Chrysler recently announced they are changing their powertrain warranty from 3/36,000 to a Lifetime warranty. This combined with the pending news that the sale to Cerberus is official should make Chrysler a hot topic once again in the automotive community.

Here is the full press release:

Auburn Hills, Mich., Jul 26, 2007 - Chrysler today announced that the Company would extend its powertrain warranty from the 3-year/36,000-mile Basic Limited Warranty to a new Lifetime Powertrain Warranty.

2007 Chrysler PT Cruiser

by Jeff on October 2, 2007

The PT Cruiser looked pretty radical when it came out it 2001. Something totally different than what we have seen in the American market. Reminiscent of a 1930s panel van, this thing shook things up a bit.

For me the styling is not my cup of tea but for many this vehicle is the answer to a roomy wagon without the family styling. Lets face it the Cruiser is affordable, hip and retro and that is kind of cool.

The Chrysler PT Cruiser is offered as a four-door wagon and a two-door convertible. The wagon comes in four trims with three engine options. The base and Touring levels come standard with a 150-horsepower, 2.4-liter four-cylinder engine. The GT gets a 2.4-liter turbocharged engine, good for 230 hp. There is also a 180-hp version of the turbo engine as an option for the Limited and Touring models. The PT Cruiser convertible has only two trim levels (Touring and GT) and offers the same three engine choices. A five-speed manual is standard on all models, and a four-speed automatic is optional.
