[green69rt]

Another icon of the past is fading.

That's too bad.

I feel I did all I could when I purchased only Chrysler Corporation products for the past 13 years.

2001 Chrysler Sebring Coupe
2005 Chrysler Pacifica
2001 Chrysler Sebring Coupe (liked the first one so much)
2010 Dodge Challenger
2011 Dodge Journey
2012 Dodge Ram 2500

That is a shame, such an iconic symbol!

Back in the 60's when they came out with the passenger fender pentstar.  The previous model years owners could bring their ride in to get it installed for free.
So proud of the brand and now we have Fiat.

Just another thing the Chevy idiots will rip on at shows.

             that's just wrong  , some advertising executives idea for sure        wonder if the big blue M is next

For all the good it'll do, I'll still do the petition or whatever on facebook.  This is right up there with the idea that you can't use the word Mopar on a t-shirt and have an image of a car with it.  Some marketing people truly don't get anything other than do something anything to justify their job.

I do not do Facebook but I would like support that petition if you move forward, Ghoste!

[Ghoste]

This is one of those online petition things.

Cool. If they don't maintain and protect it I'll take it over for us! Taking contributions now!!!

[Ghoste]

Yeah that's the one part that bugs me.

There are a few moves afoot at FCA:

That one is surprising, thought that was the corporate halo.

Yeah. It's kinda like selling the goose that lays the golden eggs. Wouldnt you just keep it?? 

[wingcar]

Change just for the sake of change?  Just because you can doesn't mean you should.....

Product branding is something that perhaps Fiat hasn't learned.  While the Fiat brand may be reality new to the masses here in the states......Mopars are not.....some things shouldn't be changed just because they have been around for a while.

Tristar coupled with PENTASTAR.
