Default RE: oredred the r/t

Typically the niche cars are never intended to be money makers. They are used to draw people into the show rooms and considered advertising costs. Minivans, 4-door sedans and the econo-boxes are. The margin on the Challengers for Chrysler is probably fairly minimal which would explain the hard line they are taking at the dealerships. But with Chrysler annoucing an increase in the Challenger's MSRP maybe they are planning on making it a profit generator.

Now this is what I can't figure out. How many Chargers and 300s can they possibly be selling these days? From everything you hear or see, the Challenger is the only car Chrysler has that's selling. Why don't they crank out more Challengers at Brampton?
