It's funny,people are talking about the Citation,I was too young when they came out.But I know of people who bought them and other cars used.The people who bought them used are the ones who seem to complain how bad they are,but they bought them when the cars were at least 10 years old !!!And American cars had a 5 digit odometer until the 1990's,meaning after 99,999 km they went back to 0 again ,so you dont know how many km are actually on the car..People sell them saying they have 50,000 km as the odometer reads, but it actually rolled around 3 or more times already ,so its really 350,000 +km !!! My sister was given a new 1986 Chevette when she was 16,kept it 10 years only had a few problems a timing belt and alternator and battery ..she put on just over 300,000 km but only showed 1,200 km when she sold it(remember goes back to 0 after 99,999) And people nowadays complain that the Chevette was a lemon as well,most likely they bought one with 350,000 km..and thinking it was 50,000 km.
One just has to look at newer models of Honda/Acura..their transmissions dont last,major recall's throughout the last decade,timing belts,head gaskets,cracking waterpump housings.amoung others.. valve ticking is another..People who own a Honda should know about changing waterpumps and timing belts..Big complaint when people trade them in and one of my biggest repairs I do on Honda/Acura's..$1100+ they give to me for a water pump and timing belt every 40,000 km..I love it..keep buying them..I want to pay my house off early..and pay cash for a new Challenger and Ram !!!!I had 5 timing belt/water pump repairs on 2002 and newer Honda's in the 2 weeks !!! And 2 had less than 140,000 km and had newer transmissions recently put in the other 3 had less than 110,000 km all were just out of factory warranty ..
****As for the new Ram :
Chrysler announced stiffer springs for the rear and increased payload and tow ratings..
Trailer tow mirrors available..
I think they mentioned a Quadcab and Crewcab R/T version,not 100% sure but,that would be great..With 4.10 gearing and a hotter torque converter it will take a second off the 0-60 and 1/4 mile times !!As it does on the singlecab R/T version !!!!!As the new Rams have a torque converter that does not allow full power on take off in order to limit wheel spin..
