Is there anybody on the POA with access to inside information that can determine the delivery date of a trailer?

Bad News - They delayed my delivery date from the first week of July until mid August!

Worst News - There are no more trailers available for purchase. If you have not purchased by now and you're not on the delivery list - you are not going to get one!

Jerry was going to ask them if they are going to produce some extra tubs and parts in the event someone wrecks or damages one.

so they say im sure if we bring them a bulk of orders they would restart production. the only problem is it would take about 150 or more orders

twistedjester..........unfortunately, there won't be any more as far as Chrysler is concerned. I've already gotten them to build 200 more trailers than what they had left at the end of Prowler production. At that time, they had components, but no wheels. They agreed to purchase more wheels because I assured them that we could get them sold... which we have. Now they have no more components and no more wheels. The trailers components, frames, interior, paint, wiring harnesses, wheels, etc. were done by a number of different vendors. If they wanted to continue building them on their own, they would all have to get permission from DC to continue producing their specific parts for the trailers. Perhaps not all of them would want to. The company that does the frames and tongues is also the one who titles them. DC was accommodating enough to build the extra 200, but they aren't interested in doing any more. It's a business decision.

1) This car was not a production vehicle which had an unlimited life.

2) The accessories that you are talking about are just that..accessories.......that they never had to make in the first place. Again, there were no plans for this car to be built more than 5 years maximum.

3) It isn't financially feasible for them to continue making these accessories if there isn't a big market for them. Remember.......there were only 11,703 built in it's lifespan.

4) How many cars have their own car cover anyway??

5) I find it interesting that a lot of the Prowler owners (except for recent buyers) never bothered to purchase these items until production end was announced. Then there was a huge rush to buy everything up. If people had been purchasing these things all along.......it would have created more of a demand and maybe they would have continued some of them.

6) I worked hard with Mopar to get them to extend the life of some of these accessories for a while. They are now down to the mud flaps and floor mats.......as long as there is a demand for them.

I didn't miss your point, I just don't happen to agree with all of it. I think you missed my point too, and I know you don't agree with me! So, I guess we agree to disagree! .......and that's what makes the world go 'round!

and originally, I only posted on here to update those owners who are waiting for their trailers and to explain to another owner why there wouldn't be any more trailers.

I'm on to other topics!
