As mentioned earlier, I think they are playing a "who's going to blink first" game with GM. That seems to be what is going on. I think it is actually smart for them to wait, it keeps people interested in waiting for more news while they are getting things ready to produce it and if they let it out too much info too early people stop paying attention and loose interest.

Honestly, I think LLC is taking a "strike while the iron is hot" approach.
Open the banks for 2009 orders now - before gas goes over $4.00/gallon (national average - it's already happened here in upstate NY), before the Camaro comes out, before the redesigned Mustang is released....."lock 'em in now and worry about pricing later".
The value of the dollar is still falling, we're going into a recession (okay, "officially" recognizing the one we're in now), inflation is spiraling out of control..... Dodge has to sell what cars they can NOW before the money supply start's tightening up.

Many thanks to the Saudi's for repaying our benevolence! Iraq invades Saudi Arabia, we drive the Iraqi's out. The Saudi's say "thanks" by maintaining low OPEC production levels, helping to drive up the price of crude. Apparently they don't have enough US dollars already.......

Yes. I misspoke.
The war was fought in Kuwait, Iraq, and areas immediately bordering Saudi Arabia.
The Saudi's were afraid of losing control of their contry (and it's oil fields) to the Iraqi's. The Iraqi's set the Kuwaiti oil fields on fire. The Saudi's feared the same would happen to them.
The US (military) defended the Saudi borders and oil fields......and gets the thanks of the Saudi's at the gas pumps every day.
Thanks for making me look closer at my post.

Okay, although this topic is an interesting one, let's try to get back onto the topic about the Challenger's pricing being kept a "secret" for the R/T model before this thread gets completely hijacked (no pun intended, it's the actual term) and has to be locked. Alright?
