I'll give you my take after you explain to me the different between a Charger new race car and an Avenger new race car. <G>

OK, my take is: Take two cow pies; paint one red and one purple. What do you have? Two pieces of practically identical cow crap.

Re: Dodge scraps Avenger COT

the old "throw-something-up-on-the-wall-and-see-if-it-sticks" marketing ploy. obviously "Avenger" didn't stick.

Couldn't have put it better.
How can anyone write something as ridiculous as "makes switch" ?!

May I expand on the above?

I actually have very little against the new race car. I believe that it is an improvement over the over-engineered, twisted up, piece of down force trash they were using.

What irritates me, down to one of my last nerves, is the audacity of NA__AR and the car makers to insult our intelligence and actually give street model names to this specially built race cars. That just plain offends me.

Re: Dodge scraps Avenger COT

I dont think NASCAR or Dogs care what we think. They are going to do what they want to do, not what John Q Public cares about. Does the COT look like anything that is being sold to the general public? Only in my dreams.

Do you mean a Ford, or a NA__AR-designed vehicle with a Ford logo on it?
