Default Challenger Sales: Boom or Bust

There is a article making the rounds that Chrysler doesn't have a sales hit now or in the near future. Big hopes on the Ram are mentioned. Dare I ask, with the full model line up released for a mere two month how is the Challenger selling?

Considering that no one can get financing on a vehicle , and the economy is trashed , and chrysler's financial status I would say NOT WELL.

Plus, it always helps for a company to actually get their product to the consumer in a timely fashion....

There is financing out there right now.....if you have good credit, even with the economy being what it is.....the problem is that people are unsure of what the world will bring after the election, and are not willing to make a big purchase at this time.

And how many have you seen on the road ? That should answer the original question ... i've seen 3 in the last year.

I've seen only 2 on the road so far. Six speeds seem to be selling good but Dealers that are marking them up are sitting on them. Nobody should be paying a Dealer Premium to own one.

Well based on ebay and local dealers I would guess sales aren't great. Ebay still listing 08 SRT and loacl dealers have 09 on the lot for over 30 days.
