I can't imagine what Dodge would do the revise the Challenger. Besides getting smaller which isn't going to happen. Where do they go from here?
I believe the primary changes to Challenger will be to the interior. Hopefully replace that awful steering wheel.

nice to see a new V6. The 3.5L is old and not very good.

Personally, I never forgot Dodge had a pulse Unlike GM, which understandably flaunts upcoming vehicles in front of the press to generate good press, Chrysler keeps things under wraps until the 11th hour, in an attempt to make bigger noise when the vehicles actually become available.

With Chrysler pinching every ad dollar they can for 2010, this makes sense to me. To hear my own dealer rep tell it, its amazing how much conserving of cash Chrysler is doing right now. The company, and its dealers, are well aware that we all need to make it over the bridge to when the new products come...

And unlike most people, we are aware that they are coming

Great, great, great new commercial for the 2011 Grand Cherokee. My mom has been driving Cherokees for the past 15 years. She wants a new one next year.

^^Just watched it for the first time, and was coming over here to post a link to it. I love it...and the car

I have a lot of VERY loyal Grand Cherokee owners that are pysched for the new one. As the former owner of a loaded '03 Laredo model, I can't wait to see the new one in person...

That is indeed a great commercial, but for the skyscraper I personally would have used the Chrysler Building rather than the Empire State Building!

Nice ad, but a little hypocritical.
They talk about how they build here yet they decided to close 8 plants and send a lot of that production to foreign countries.

The front end looks like they tried to fit it through a small opening then somebody said woah,that's good. I'm still with the howtheywentfromthe'99conceptcartothatcrowd...Don't get me wrong I do like the car just not the name that they stuck it to.

I wonder if they will be putting this dash in the Challenger, too? I have decided to get a Challenger, just a matter of whether I go ahead and buy a 2010 or wait for a 2011. If this is the dash going in the 2011 Challenger, I believe I'll be buying a 2010.

Yeah.. the steering wheel is pretty bad.

The Challenger's dash is unique (guages and controls are similar, but the dash is different than the Charger).

Either way, I'd wait for the 2011 to come out. Once it comes out, dealers will be ready to move the 2010s. You can pick.
