In 2004 they had 17 cars in the Daytona 500...2008 it was down to 9...2010 it was 3....What the He$$ happened to this companys race program?? Several major teams in NHRA are still flying the MOPAR colors. Is Penske spread too thin with all his other interests. Or has the NASCRAP funding dried up from the manufacturer...Good to see Kez on the pole this weekend...he's Roger's new golden boy...Kurt's mid pack and Robbies scrappin the bottom of the barrel...Brian Kez never even showed up this weekend....So I pose this ?????....Sh$t and get off the pot...or...find a new team owner, give them the $$$ resources and start a retooling of the program....
 
Dodge isn't pumping as much money into NASCAR as the other manufacturers are.
 
GM doesn't have any either, but they haven't cut their support as much as Dodge did.
 
That's because NA$CAR is a GM product, that just allows the others in to look like it's fair.

But they did dump an entire brand in Pontiac and booted thousands of employees to save their sorry asses. Dodge is doing the worst as far as the big 3 go, if I recall they almost got out of NASCAR all together.

Too bad they make such a crappy product because their stuff sure does look really good.

our 2005 Ram has 253,000 miles on it (we've NEVER changed spark plugs, still gets 18 mpg highway)... My 2001 Dakota has 139,000. No complains here.

I've got over 190k on my Ram 2500, runs like a top.

Thats awesome but I have 3 friends that had nightmares with the ones they had in the past that I just can't do it. I think the Charger and Challenger are probably the coolest looking American cars that have come out in the last 10 years.
 
I miss Pontiac. Not only did they get dumped as a brand, they got muscled out of NASCAR.

I agree, I've got an 2002 Sunfire with 136,000 and all I've had to do is replace a fuel pump.

I guess y'all are lucky with the dodges. I've not seen much good out of them. Crappy trannys.

The new venture and mercedes getrags (despite the name, Get Rag) are MUCH better than the crap they had pre-2002. My dakota only make it 127K on one trans. Once they started outsourcing transmissions, things got better.
 
The Wife wants a Dodge Challenger... Someday if she's Lucky...lol...
