I know it say Nov 28,2013 but I wonder how old this story is. It hasn't been called DaimlerChrysler for a number of years.
Enjoying the Alberta advantage

Jack Stewart is still alive and kicking, so it might be an error on the part of the writer.  My father in law has purchased several vehicles from that dealership over the past 40 years.

Neat article. Great to see He's still a part of his dealership at that age, it's amazing really.

I think we'd all love to be as engaged socially and mentally alert as he appears to be at that age. Far, far superior to rotting away in a home.
You can't just have your characters announce how they feel.

I'm thrilled with the idea that he drives to work each day, too.
