Does it say Chrysler in small print somewhere?

i'm 6'4"

hopefully i will fit in.

If not, i'll tweak to taste...

m.p.g is no object as long as it's able to zip along them tight curves

specs are good but...

hopefully it will be available before we, read "the consumer", get tired of waiting...

The auto industry is slow to move to trends...

Chrysler/Fiat may not have much time on their hands.

Ho well!

That car in a crash would fold up like a "smart car", you saw those crash tests on TV a couple of months ago, right?

I wouldn't touch it with a ten foot pole.

No but I have actually seen a few of those Smart Cars on the freeway.

Gave me the willies just watching it putter down the road.

It would be one thing if everyone drove one but put one of those up against an average sized car or truck and it will lose every time.

Unfortunately, the driver will be the big loser (of his life).

I'm getting tired of all this save the world crap.
I just want to live my life without the government telling me how to do it.

Global warming is a complete farce that has been perpetrated on the population so a few hundred businessmen can make their fortunes from it.

I'd like to see how big Al Gore's carbon footprint is.

Seeing how he has something like five estates and a private jet to take him to the next speech he is giving, all the while throwing more crap into the atmosphere.

Can you say hypocrisy?

Definition = Hypocrisy typically comes from a desire to mask actual motives or feelings, or from a person's inability to conform to standards they espouse.

The Italian name for that Fiat model is "Cinquecento" (Italian for 500).

I would not drive a Cinquecento on an interstate. Heck, I never felt safe driving a Cinquecento on rural Italian roads. I do not know what Fiat did to the car, but Cinquecentos were not street legal until very recently.

Global warming is real. The Earth has been much hotter and colder than it is today.
