Hell yeah, my daily driver is a Jeep Cherokee 4.0 liter approachin 175,000 and that thing has survived burnout after burnout, offroad misadventures, and i've beat the thing more than i care to admit but it still runs wicked strong and shows no signs of giving up.But i also have to add mines an "87" makin it an AMC not a Chrysler. All hail AMC.

The problem here is that you are not actually 'witnessing' chryslers going bad, you're HEARING about it. It's like rumors and tabloids. Yes, its common knowledge that Chrsylers are unreliable. Common knowledge meaning opinions that a lot of people share. But is it true? No. It isn't. - Rob |

Mitsu turbo
Ihad a 90 Eclipes turbo(GST) I put 130,000 miles on it. The turbo still worked like new. You cant look at just the repair reports. You got to consider whose driving them. You put a turbo on an engine it increases stress on the engine. However if you drive it like you have half a brain it will run fine. You take it to the strip ever other weekend, you'll be lucky to get 2 years out of it. Your talking about cheap cars setup to atract a younger crowd. The type of crowd thats going to beat the living crap out of it. That is bound to make the car look bad, because there going to have a high failure rate. When I traded my Eclips into a Mitsu dealer, he was suprised to see the turbo working like new. The GST's were drivin by younger drivers and the turbos were regularly failing before the cars had 90k on them,

I think every car marque has its ups and downs, and they all have their 'good models' and 'bad models'. I'm intelligent enough not to judge a company, but judge a CAR. That said, i still have a HATRED for Camaros and Mustangs, but I still think they're good cars, I'm just sick of seeing them all the time in car magazines, car shows, etc etc.

These Neon threads are always good for Chicane to get his post count up. He is so predictable and is so easy to get on a rampage! Will he ever learn? Will you guys ever learn? It is good for a chuckle though.
