(I'll bet it's chassis is very similar to the Kats) ------------------ Prowl a forgotten road!
CAT-A-TONIC Prowler Junkie Posts: 71 From: SAN JOSE,CA. Registered: APR 2001	posted 12-20-2001 11:23 PM Heres what I think. That car was originally designed by and supposed to be built here in the USA by CHRYSLER, but now it's going to br built overseas. I'm not buying an import Chrysler period !
sunbird Prowler Junkie Posts: 595 From: Ridgecrest, California Registered: DEC 2001	posted 12-21-2001 12:16 AM If I wanted a steenking Mercedes, I would have bought one! Have you ever followed one of those stinkin smoke belching diesels up a mountain pass yet? If I have to buy overseas, I'll buy Toyota. They are da-- good cars and are assembled here. ------------------ Prowl a forgotten road!

Replace the prowler? Only with another one. But this car would be a close second Im sure. ------------------ 99,black cat,unpainted trailer kit,borla cat back,cold air intake,tgf spoiler,spears,grill,side panels on the way. driven every day 22,000 happy miles

sunbird Prowler Junkie Posts: 595 From: Ridgecrest, California Registered: DEC 2001	posted 12-21-2001 10:43 PM Well, Rudy, some of my comments were emotion driven. I had wished luck selling the CrossFires. Then I read where they were being made and my blood boiled. The folks at CAAP who did such an excellent (could one say loving) job of putting our kats together - and they probably could not afford to buy one for themselves. They get the boot and the car that should follow the Kat is going to be built away from it's home. On your MB, is it a diesel? I notice it has no plates, so it must be brand new. Follow a diesel with a few years on it up a steep grade where they have it floored and not only does it go slow, but you've got to put on your fog lights, windshield wipers, and gas mask. And that black cloud really does stink! I mean you no offense, but I have experienced that scenario several times over the years. ------------------ Prowl a forgotten road!
sunbird Prowler Junkie Posts: 595 From: Ridgecrest, California Registered: DEC 2001	posted 12-21-2001 10:45 PM Did I read correctly that the CrossFire will have a one piece carbon fiber body? It seems that a minor fender bender could result in a totaled vehicle. ------------------ Prowl a forgotten road! This message has been edited by sunbird on 12-21-2001 at 10:49 PM
OnDProw Prowler Junkie Posts: 569 From: Granada Hills, Ca, USA Registered: MAY 2001	posted 12-22-2001 05:41 AM This is true though. A diesel is smokey and does smell but yes mine is a 2001. not a diesel.

DULL AND UGLY. dc you want us to buy this then first off build it at the caap plant change the inside. and if i'am blind i might think about it (not) JMO LIVIN XL BILL S ------------------ ceramic brakes mud flaps flaking chrome rim's ( REPLACED FINALLY)
sunbird Prowler Junkie Posts: 595 From: Ridgecrest, California Registered: DEC 2001	posted 12-23-2001 12:13 AM Actually, I have nothing against Mercedes. (Except those steekin diesels!) They have been around many years and have brought many people enjoyment and pride. My big beef (emotionally driven) was the shipping of American ingenuity overseas and the 'dumping' of American workers. That is a big sore spot with me. This global stuff stinks (about like one of those diesels). We share with the world while other countries practice nationalism. For instance, how many Prowlers do you think were sold in Germany? I don't know, but I can guess! Enough politics...let's get back to praising out Kats! ------------------ Prowl a forgotten road!
