Retired rental for one of our major customers. We have six or so coming in The next few weeks. Light beige interior + rental vehicle = “screw it let’s put leather in it.”

It was a hateful car. It’s like a car designed by Vogons.

It’s such an upsetting car. There’s literally no way you can describe it. It’s just... “car”

I remember having such high hopes for these when they came out.

It’s an awful car. I had one as a rental. I have no positive feedback. Chrysler should be ashamed of themselves

On the outside it looks nice. But the interior felt like it was haphazardly tossed together.

But it competes with the German and Japanese cars in the segment!

They could have taken a page out of the days when Rover was circling the drain and just made leather standard across the board. That seemed to work, right?

Does it? I think “competes” must be a loose term: It accelerates like it’s about to stall. It turns like something is broken. The feel of the front end is a goddamn mystery. You can’t turn the radio off. It’s about as futuristic as a new Honda Civic was in 2004. I had to fall into the damn thing because it sat so low. I had to wiggle to clamber out of the hole I sat in. It’s loud (in all the wrong ways). The key fob is generic. The A pillars were in my line of sight all of the time. The B pillar was against my ear. The back-up camera was far and away from being aligned in a “straight” way. It brakes like it wanted to crash.....

I don’t know, man. It’s a shitty car. I hated it. I guess the trunk was big? The cruise control worked ok?

Just got one as a rental today.

It seems so lost on so many levels.
