Default RE: Who has a 2008 Challenger on order?

Paladin06, Paladin06,Paladin06,Paladin06, First of all I am not a conspiracy theorist ....I REPEAT I AM NOT A CONSPIRACY THEORIST!!!
Secondly the purpose of my rant was merely to point out, that no matter the problems with this car and Dodge , they could and should be more open and honest than they have been to thier customers. American consumers are much smarter and understanding than Dodge gives us the respect for. All they need do is just tell us why the delay and that we will get our cars by such and such date and I'm sure 99% of us would be happy and understanding. I agree life is not fair, I was not talking fair , just repect! So there goes that assumption. Now as for concert tickets , say what you like and for your info Ive been resourcefull all my life or I wouldn't be where I'm at now and no one can tell me that when you know way ahead of time that tickets will go on sale a certain date and you check every venue possible and show up at the ticket sales office at 5 am on the morning of a 10 am sales opening and you are 3rd in line and you get to the window and the only seats left are at the sides "fairly" close or on the floor center but 50 rows back that someone or some large ticket buying company, or scalper, or big corporation, or someone with pull or connections has bought out all the front row and close side tickets. I know now you'll tell me that this is the American way, well you may be right but it still stinks in my book and I'm sure in my heart, but not in my time, that that kind of capitalistic greed , unjustness, or unfairness is NOT GOOD for America and may be the eventual downfall in 100 or so yrs. Most of all the people that make America work are all us poor hard working slobs who go to work every day of our life and work hard at doing our job the best we can and not spending time figuring out how to beat the system , be resourcefull, or lying to people about why they are not getting their cars ,ETC. As I said in my rant .....God bless you and those that have patience and understanding of Dodge.......and the best of luck to the rest of us......but I really mean GOD BLESS US ALL......FATCAT

If I might make a minor correct to your statement. Companies due what best for

1. The Company
2. Their Shareholders
3. The consumer

and in that order...

As I see it, Dodge has aimed for May delivery for several months and may be a few days or weeks behind. TAKE A CHILL PILL!!! Try to imagine how complex the modern car is. One little problem can stop the line. If 500 cars are produced and a tiny problem is found, then they have to try to fix all 500 once they have a solution. If they want to deliver all 6400 on the same day, why would that be a problem? Some of you spend so much time trying to make things fair, it seems that would be fair. (I for one realize the world is not fair)
Very soon the cars will arrive and if there are any problems I wonder if the conspiracy theorist here will be wanting to file their class action aginst the manufacturer or whoever else they can think of for intentionally putting out a bad product. Dodge is a business and businesses do what is best for them and their paying customers and common sense tells me they will get us our cars ASAP.
Fatcat, Fatcat, Fatcat,
The reason those people get the front row seats is because they are resourcefull. They are whatever it takes people. They are the people who make America work!
