There's exactly zero chance I'd buy a car that showed me ads.
There was already zero chance I'd buy a Stellantis vehicle anyway after buying a brand new 1999 Dodge Durango that started rusting out sitting on our garage.
And while they did the bare minimum to remove the rust, but they didnt stand behind it. There was no way we were keeping it or buying anything else from them.
Dodge was owned by DaimlerChrysler in 99. I only know that because my family was in the car business and weren't happy about that merger
Meanwhile I used to drive a 99 Chrysler 300m and I swear it was one of the best vehicles I've driven. It only died because as an idiot 19 year old I thought the engine temperature gage could wait a day because I had to move into college.
That said it was the last car Chrysler made worth shit
Yep, all connected /same garbage IMHO I was a big DSM (Diamond Star Motors) fan back in the mid/late 90's had a couple AWD Talons.
