  • Minivan Motoring, Or Why I Miss That Old Car Smell by Sam Patteson
    e-Vision volume eight 1 Minivan Motoring, or Why I Miss that Old Car Smell by Sam Patteson It is very difficult to look “cool” while driving a minivan, and I never bothered to try. “Cool” is overrated anyway. What’s not overrated is the urban camouflage a minivan affords. “No one suspects the soccer mom,” Joe deadpanned as he rolled us a joint on the open door of the glove box. I had to agree as I pulled the van into the Shell station to gas up before our long trip to Charleston. I let the tank fill while I checked the various reservoir levels for brake fluid, antifreeze, power steering, and the like. As usual, I needed a quart of oil. Rednecks on last minute beer runs cruised through the parking lot as I returned from the store. Joe blasted Frampton Comes Alive through the open windows. Pete’s guitar had something to say, and the van was rocking. I poured the oil into the engine, slammed the hood home, and slid into the driver’s seat. I turned to quiz Joe on last minute preparations. We had planned this trip for months, and I didn’t want to forget anything. “Suitcases?” He turned to look back at the empty rear of the van. We had removed the back seats in favor of a twin-sized bed. Our suitcases nestled securely between the bed and the back door. “Check.” Pillows and blankets? “Check.” Wallet, money, keys? “Check.” Er… extras? “Check!” Joe coughed and handed me the joint. I took a deep drag and handed it back.

  • Daimler-Chrysler-Vehicle-Problems
    Dodge Chrysler Vehicles - Poor Quality Reliability Safety Defects Page 1 of 17 DAIMLERCHRYSLER DODGE CHRYSLER VEHICLES - IMPORTANT CONSUMER INFORMATION BEFORE YOU BUY Dodge, Chrysler formerly DaimlerChrysler has had a history of excessive vehicle quality issues, safety defects and poor service. This continued despite the 1998 Chrysler merger with Daimler Benz and constant claims by DaimlerChrysler that this was a significant benefit to consumers. If anything, given the dramatic quality decline, it seems Mercedes Benz may have embraced some of the cost cutting quality standards at Chrysler to increase overall profitability. The problems continue despite stylish new vehicles and claims of new stringent quality standards by Chrysler to regain consumer confidence. Chrysler continues to deceive consumers regarding known potentially life threatening vehicle defects such as unsafe Seatbelts and Steering which continue to put consumer lives at risk every day. Chrysler still refuses to recall several common serious safety defects that cannot be absolved through mergers and buyouts. Chrysler continues to reduce its warranty expense through an aggressive refusal to honor many valid warranty claims while blaming the consumer whenever possible, such as defective engines where on schedule oil changes can be proven. Consumers often attribute this to being a dealer problem while failing to recognize that this is because Chrysler pressures dealers to keep warranty costs to a minimum, even for known problems and defects. Chrysler will do everything it can to avoid covering common problems under warranty whenever possible by blaming consumers or claiming issues cannot be duplicated. We believe Chrysler is the most negligent, deceptive, misleading and arrogant automobile manufacturer that does not deserve your business.

  • 25 Jahre Chrysler Minivans – Ein Vierteljahrhundert Der Innovationen
    25 Jahre Chrysler Minivans – ein Vierteljahrhundert der Innovationen Die Minivan-Formel Im Jahr 1977 begann ein kleines Team von Chrysler Designern und Ingenieuren an etwas zu arbeiten, dass sie den “Magic Wagon” nannten. Als das Projekt 1980 offiziell verabschiedet wurde, war der daraus neu entstehende “Minivan” so komfortabel wie jeder andere traditionelle amerikanische Kombi, dabei aber geräumiger, vielseitiger und ökonomischer – und passte außerdem in eine durchschnittliche amerikanische Garage. Ein Vorderradantrieb war die Grundvoraussetzung für einen Innenraum mit durchgehend flachem Boden. Leichter Zugang und einfache Beladung waren ebenso wichtige Kriterien und führten zu einer seitlichen Schiebetür, einer einteiligen Heckklappe und klappbaren Sitzen, die bei Bedarf auch ganz herausgenommen werden konnten. Der Dodge Caravan und Plymouth Voyager debütierten schließlich im Jahr 1983 als Fahrzeuge, in die Freunde und Familie wie in ein ganz normales Auto einstiegen konnten, statt wie bei einem ausgewachsenen Van ins Führerhaus hochklettern zu müssen. 1983-1984 Der erste Minivan wird vorgestellt (“T-115”, erster kleiner Van mit Vorderradantrieb). 2. November 1983 – Chrysler-Vorstandsvorsitzender Lee A. Iacocca startet die Produktion des ersten Minivan im Werk Windsor in Ontario, Kanada. Zu den ersten Modellen zählen der Dodge Caravan, der Dodge Caravan C/V und der Plymouth Voyager. Im ersten vollen Verkaufsjahr werden 210.000 Caravan und Voyager ausgeliefert. Bei einer Rentabilitätsgrenze von 155.000 Einheiten jährlich spielt der Minivan eine tragende Rolle bei der Rückkehr der Chrysler Corporation zu einem profitablen Unternehmen. Das US amerikanische ‚Zinc Institut‘ verlieh dem Minivans (Plymouth Voyager) 1984 ihren ersten Preis: “Excellence in Corrosion Protection”, für ihre beispielhafte Korrosionsvorsorge. 1985 Das Magazin “Car and Driver” wählt den Plymouth Voyager zu einem der “10 Besten”.

However, they do not usually consider consumers’ tr avel attitudes, personality, lifestyle, and mobility as factors that may affect the vehicle type choice. The purpose of this study is to explore the relationship of such factors to individuals’ vehicle type choices, and to develop a disaggregate choice mo del of vehicle type based on these factors as well as typical demographic variables .
