I heard that some Chrysler dealerships will be closing June 9th. Also heard that Chrysler will not be buying vehicles back from the dealerships and that the dealerships cannot sell the vehicles after June 9th.

 

Are there deals to be had on these vehicles before June 9th?

Correct.

 

It is up to the dealers to sell them to customers or other dealers.

Hmmmm............. :twisted:

It's REALLY a shame, the Delaer's Licneses expire on that date, and any stock they have on the lots, WHICH THEY HAD TO PAY FOR, can No longer be sold as a "New" Car, no matter that the odometer only has the mileage from the Production line to the truck, to the ship, to the truck, to the dealer. Some dealers have hundreds of cars that they are going to get soaked for, remember they were keeping sales volume up by only selling for a couple of hundred dollars over cost as it was in many cases. There are a lot of people who are going to be utterly destroyed by this crap between Chrysler and GM dealers.

i imagine their will be deals on those cars after the 9th. that is lousy what is happening to those deaers.

No deals after the 9th because Chrysler will not honor the warranty if it's not bought from an authorized Chrysler dealer and after the 9th, some dealers lose there authorization rights.

 

The dealers are giving there inventory at cost just to recoup there money.

It's the end of an era gents.

 

I hate our American Auto Companies. I hate them with a passion.

 

I do not pity the owners, for they were greedy scum.

I do not pity the workers, for they were greedy union whores.

I do not pity the engineers, for they had too much pride to change their ways.

 

Maybe Ford will see the light. But the future of cars is going to come from Japan and China. Nations with the will, the drive to succeed. Our companies have just become complacent, and lost their place at the top.

 

I feel terrible for these dealers though. But there is not much that can be done for them.

 

PS: If you want to see why these companies are dead or dying, you should really read the book, "The Toyota Way". http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Toyota_Way

 

It's in those books, you can find how Toyota and other manufacturers have not only emulated the American model of production, but expanded, and improved upon it. It is very interesting reading.

I will never buy a GM or Chrysler. Screw them. Government Motors :x :x

It truly is amazing to see how far the US lacks behind other countries in terms of infrastructure because of greedy companies. It is not just the companies to blame though, considering the government has never really remedied the situation (whether to deal with the problems directly as the government currently is, or to tie up loop holes in the system). Whether its the automotive industry or fiber optics or education or etc, people's lack of accountability for years has really eroded the core. I'm skeptical of the power the government is wielding right now, but if the proper measures can be taken to correct the issues (or began to) without absolute power becoming absolute, then I can support it. We'll see I suppose.

Skeptical? I am downright scared about the amount of power our Govt is taking. From the Patriot Act to The President becoming CEO of GM. And from the overall acceptence of these acts by the Sheeple of The United States.The prevailing what's in it for me attitude will only lead us into chains.

it is ashame what has happened to gm and chrysler, greed from the top right to the bottom is what destroyed those companies.

 

I just hope ford holds on and does not let what happened to the others happen to them. Ford will come out very strong if they can hang in their my hat is off to them not needing help they oviously had better managing as a co.

Our nation is stuck in a bad paradigm. While other nations adapt to new global realities, the United States remains inflexible due to our pride. The system is broken, and we as a nation are far too afraid to admit it.
