Default RE: WHATS REALLY GOING ON WITH DODGE AND THESE CHALLENGERS???

Mopar,

Same here, I'm am first at my dealership, it was ordered 9:46 am on my von sheet, been in D since March. I have never been anything but D since that time but have never progressed to D1 status. So lets play that game, how many Dodge dealerships in the US? I will guess and think I would be gracious 500-700. That theory would put us less than 700. A bunch apparently are already built 200-400, I'm still not in D1, so I don't have a clue. Other things to consider is earlier post which stated all 08's will be built by the break Mid-July. That would leave 7 weeks left for production that would leave dodge only needing to produce around 900 a week to include Canada"s & Mexico's 500 or so. With that being said they could be producing as little as 150 cars a day. Then on the other hand, they can produce 968 a day, so if they desired they could produce evrey dang one of them in the first week of JULY basically. BUt I think they would deliver all of the first ordered cars first. What we really don't know is how the Canadian challengers will come down the line, some of theirs, some of ours, who knows?
