Hahah FCA products good one boys. I used to live down the street from their HQ and know a lot of Chrysler employees, they wouldn't know proper engineering and quality control if it hit them in the head. Crooked ass company like all the Big 3.

I'm waiting to trade in my 17 GC srt when I can see the new discovery in person. I like the extra towing capacity and the 7 seats. I'm sure it's going to be way better on fuel efficiency too.

More crooked than VW?

All that engineering still doesn't translate to reliability. No car I've owned has ever left me stranded except my BMW (and at only 6k miles). No car I've owned has been to the dealership more than my BMW. No car I've owned has had more recalls than my BMW. Give me a break...

I used to shit all over American brands. This is the first I've ever owned and I struggle to find something negative to say about it.

Fuel efficiency is a concern yet you bought an SRT? Dude, come on...

I know eh. I knew it was bad but I didn't know it was like top ten of everything bad. It'd be better if I could use some of that power once in a while but it's either my wife's grocery getter or our family hauler which never gets the chance. So as a daily, it's probably the worst decision I've ever made. I needed something to tow with and i got an awesome deal on it so yolo. At least the wife likes it.
