Well, 12 years is a pretty good run. Amazing that they lasted that long, basically unchanged. Reminds me of a couple of long running models from Honda that had only a minor facelift and a few mechanical tweaks.

I wonder if the Durango will get moved over to the Ram brand while the Dodge name joins Plymouth in the Great Beyond.

I didn't hear anything about the 300 , it is all built off the same chassis and in the same location as the other cars, and not any more efficient.

I've no interest in the new stuff but this would have been my dream MGA cockpit in my 30s.

Is that a shift light on top of the dash? (next to the cup)

I believe that's a laser designed to shine into the rear view mirrors of slow moving Triumphs.

Comes with a shirt that says 'I would rather push a MG than drive a Triumph'.

Can't wear it . . . I have had 5 MGs and 2 Triumphs.

I'm not sure what that is on top of the dash. Camera?
