What people don’t quite comprehend is that today a mojority of people buying vehicles care more about the _image_ rather than what the car/truck is truely capable of. Shitty, but true. > > Another thing most people don’t know about is the restrictions that were placed onto the Avenger from the beginning that highly influenced its design firection. I’m good friends with the lead designer of this project, went to college with him and was even at his bachelore party last weekend along wit hseveral other Chrysler designers. They had said that, among a few other things, this car had to have the truck grill, a large enough trunk capacity to meet fleet vehicle requirements, had to have that c-pillar wedge like the Charger, obviously had to fit the package. Minus a few spots here and there this car isn’t all that bad. There are plenty of cars out there that we could point fingers at… > > I’l see if I can get my hands on some of the earlier concept drawings…you guys should like to see those.
