Since you brought up Daimler-Chrysler...I'm taking the hooligans to Six
Flags Magic Mountain this weekend since school starts next week.
Trying to be a smart guy, I reserved a minivan two weeks ago through
Enterprise at some super-de-dooper weekend rate. When I went to pick it up
today, they had no minivans. No Enterprise joint had a stinkin' minivan. I
was tight. They didn't seem to understand why I was so tight. The clown
offered to rent me a 15 passenger one ton Chebby van for the same price (I
have 7 humans total to haul). The thought of 7mpg @ $3.45 in CA didn't
thrill me. With seemingly no other choice, I took the rolling greenhouse. I
took it a mile or so away and the AC never got cold, so I took it back. Dude
there said he had a Durango comming in and I could have that if I wanted. He
said it seats seven. I waited.
It will seat seven semicomfortably.
Having not driven anything Dodge since my work bud's '90 Ram Charger, I was
still under the impression all Dodge/Chrysler interior stuff was still cheap
crap. This Durango is pretty nice. Not real cheappy plastic-y crap. I'll see
how it runs going over to Cal. And no this doesn't have a Hemi.
I reckon, since the merger, Chrysler quality has risen, and MB quality has
fallen and it sems they have met somewhere in the middle.

I know they call him Dr. Z, but isn't that really Marshall in those tv
commercials? Wonder how much they had to pay him to shave the beard?
Nice moustache, though -- sort of reminds me of my lip when I'm not
sporting
the goatee!
