I like this one Dave! Chrylerfication…….. Just OUTSTANDING. And so well thought through. It is heartening to see that not all of us have forgotten what Plymouth stood for, and what it truly meant for Chrysler. It needs to come back. Like you said earlier, “hey, dowdy is good!” LOL. That was the style for years, and it purely beat the sales pants off a lot of higher priced cars. Dodge among them! Again, reference to your earlier blog, DCX will continue as it is 1/2 Chrysler and 1/2 Plymouth. Just unfortunately not a clear deliniation of either of them, and a point blank dilution of them both! DCX still doesn’t get it. Dodge will never fill the niche occupied by Plymouth. BTW, if you want dowdy what exactly is the segment occupied by Toyota Corolla? Hyundai? Kia? Mazda 6? They all look like four door cracker boxes. And there isn’t one thing wrong with that!

I have to try those if they have a Kleenex and/or Price Club variety. I find most tissues are not nose-friendly (especially Puffs With Lotion and, I regret to say, the environmentally-very-friendly-yet-cheap Marcal).

We found these handy ’tissues in a cup’ that perfectly fit in the cupholder. I actually use the drawer for CDs. Three can also fit in the rear cupholder, though in stop and go driving they rock back and forth, as does one if that’s all that’s there. Two is just right though. Hmm, no underseat drawer. Wonder what disappears for next year?

I like the underseat drawer as a place to dump all the rubbish I never usually need - manual, first aid kit, etc. Then the glvoe compartment is for tissues and CDs!
