Chrysler, that is.
Not Jalopnik.

Let them fail and then you GUARANTEE THAT THE LOAN IS NEVER REPAID.
Morons.
Whine and bitch about tax dollars (really how many of the posters here are the me-too-chrysler-sucks-because-thats-what-the-cool-kids-say cheese-eatin-dead-in-the-ditch-highschool-kids never-paid-federal-taxes-in-your-effeminate-life) to keep a company alive and allow it to operate.. guess what kids.. it goes under and those tax dollars go POOF.
This goes double for Wert. You of all people, living in Detroit and making a living off the back of the auto industry, you'd think at minimum you could see the stupidity of the journalists calling for Chrysler to just rollover and die. Stop being the "hipster" and start being the respected blogger again.
Yea.. Chryslers car lineup really sucks right now.. but what do you expect with 10 years of German mis-management and transfer of wealth out of Chrysler.
How about putting the blame where it lies.. directly at Stuggart.. how about blaming the f'ckin morons at mercedes and daimler who screwed up the company to the point where now the only way it can survive is if we collectively give it a short term loan.
Last time Chrysler dealt with Italy.. we got the v10 for the Viper.. (co-designed with lamborghini.. italian batshit insane with americans love of tire roasting torque!)... Right now.. I'm waiting for the german cancelled (better than the SLR McLaren.. 18 months from concept to full on drivable prototype including a wet clutch automated manual tranny that you sat on since Chrysler started to develop it in 1998 before you took the helm! Can't have Chrysler having better stuff than you now can ya you conceited german bastards) ME-412 powered by a quad turbo ferrari v12
auf Wiedersehen, Dr. Z.. you theiving bastard

That is why people are pissed off about Chrysler buying this ad.

That's not too ridiculous. It's 0.005425% of the funds...

They all look happy.

SRTcaliberBOY: Chryzler is hottt!11! Dude, the SRT-4 caliber is POTENT! People jsut see it as another economy ride, but itz a sleeper. I blasted a vette yesterday on my way to class from a roll to 150mph! Cameros are alwayz tryin to race me, but why bother? If a vette can't hang, then a camero isn't going to stand a chance.
MinMoM: I feel extremely safe driving my kids, Ethan and Sarah, to different events in my Town and Country. The minivan has plenty of room and the DVD player is a godsend for long trips. Thanks Chrysler!
69Muscle: I had a '69 Challenger and cannot wait to get my hands on a new Challenger! I think it's great that you guys captured the spirit of the original in this new version. So glad the government realizes that you still make products people want here in America.

I am torn between a desire to watch them burn to the ground, and a more optimistic desire to see them return to former glory.
Not quite sure how to find a middle ground in those two. Maybe a town hall meeting where we all get to rant and yell and make total asses out of them.

WTF is Chrysler doing allowing open comments on a corporate blog?
It's lose-lose, because you're stuck with a bunch of comments making you look bad (ok, worse), or you have the create the cardinal interwebz sin of deleting a blog post or comments, and risk getting called out like this.
01/22/09
Cardinal sin my ass.

The point is, the interwebs as a whole tends to get their panties in a bunch when people try to "cover up" something.
If Jalopnik put up a post, then took it down for mysterious reasons, they'd never hear the end of it from us (case in point: Wert's High School Reunion).

...but it's another thing to do that and act like you're right around the corner from a product renaissance when all signs point to Cerberus stopping all development and stripping Chrysler for parts.
I'll remind you that Cerberus is the 3-headed dog the greets you upon entrance to Hell: [en.wikipedia.org]

As I was walking down the street one day
I saw a house on fire
There was man, shouting and screaming at an upper-storey window
To the crowd that was gathered there below
For he was sore afraid
Jump! You fucker, jump!
Jump into this here blanket what we are holding
And you will be all right
He jumped, hit the deck, broke his fucking neck -
There was no blanket
Laugh?! We nearly shat!
We had not laughed so much since Grandma died
Or Auntie Mabel caught her left tit in the mangle
We are miserable sinners
Fi-i-ilthy fuckers
Ahhhrrrr-soles

No, no, they have already lost their jobs. That's why they have resorted to selling pictures of themselves to Chrysler.
