Without them, nobody else would be buying Chargers, Durangos, 300's. I don't think I have ever seen a white person drive a 300. It's a great plan. With the current minorities set to overtake white people in percent of population, they will shoot to the top of the leader board of the big 3! 9/30/2011 4:09:17 PM

i don't know about the durango, but it's pretty valid stereotype regarding the chargers and 300s
definitely never seen a white person in a 300 and the only white folks in a charger are state troopers 9/30/2011 4:20:47 PM

I'm white and I drive a Magnum.
But I'm also 6'5" and have a hard time fitting into smaller cars. I also don't like SUV's, but wanted something big enough to haul drums in. 9/30/2011 4:21:25 PM

There's a black guy at work who drives a Durango, and I think EMCE drives a Jeep that is based on the Durango. I do however know a German who drives a Dodge Charger SRT8, but he doesn't know any better. 9/30/2011 4:22:42 PM

I mean, when you feature a song called "The G-Code" by the Geto Boys in your commercial it is pretty clear who you are marketing to.

You're right, asides from having the same engines/transmissions, basic chassis components and very similar styling, they are both totally different cars. Please educate me further on how the new Cherokees differs from the Durango. Is the badging any different? How about the steering wheels? I just checked some interior photos, and I must say, the steering wheel of the Jeep looks more rugged and I think the cup holder positioning is different between the two cars! 9/30/2011 6:26:39 PM

Quote : | "After taking a pass on the 2010 model year, the third-generation Durango appears thirteen years after the original model was introduced. Unlike the body-on-frame SUV it replaces, the 2011 Durango now sits on a unibody platform that it and the Grand Cherokee share with the Mercedes-Benz M- and GL-classes. The base engine will be Chrysler’s new 3.6-liter Pentastar V-6 while the 5.7-liter Hemi V-8 continues as the optional engine, just as with the Jeep." |
Yeah, the Cherokee is geared more toward off-road while the Durango is not. But they're based on the same fucking platform, share the same drivetrain and shares much of the same interior design. To say they're not based on the same platform is fucking ignorant.
It's not like 10 years ago when the two vehicles shared nothing. They now share damn near everything. 9/30/2011 6:44:41 PM

^ They both started production at the same time. They're both based off a Mercedes M/GL platform. But now you're just arguing semantics after you couldn't believe that your piece of shit Grand Cherokee was based on the same piece of shit the Durango is based off of. 9/30/2011 6:51:14 PM

If you examined sale data, I suspect you would find racial trends and whatnot. And they probably account for that in their marketing, too.
But it's not a bad thing...black consumers basically carried Hyundai/Mitsubishi for like a decade. 9/30/2011 7:38:34 PM

there is two 300s outside my apt complex both driven by white guys. A charger also, but black driver. 3 Challengers, all white and young. Durangos on the other hand are usually old white men or women. 9/30/2011 7:43:31 PM
