I am, I bought my Aries because I resolved that I would not buy anything but a Chrysler product, and I also have the HEMI Challenger which is IMO the best muscle car ever made. I have the Jeep as well, another MOPAR. And I convinced my Dad to trade his 03 Saturn for a 99' Grand Caravan, because I wanted him to have a MOPAR as well! I also think when I need another car it will be a Mopar again. Nothing else will do. Mopar or No Car.

The first Mopar I ever owned was a 66 Plymouth Belvedere

Have bought Mopars continuously since 1978- (only the 1992 Intrepid and 1968 Plymouth were bought used- all the others I bought new)

1978 LeBaron Coupe (loved that car)
1981 Plymouth Arrow Pickup (started my business with it)
1983 Chrysler E-Class (finally broke down and bought my first family four door since we needed something to hold our infant daughter and our new twin sons. I told my wife if I had to buy a 4-door, then I had seen a really sharp looking one on the Chrysler lot that I wouldn't mind owning and that was this car)
1980s Dodge Ram 50 Pickups (used several [counting the Plymouth Arrow, I think it came to somewhere between 4-6 pickups]) in my business)
1988 Dodge Dakota (ordered it straight from the factory with the color, options and other features just the way I wanted)
1989 Dodge Dynasty (what a lemon)
1992 (not sure I remember the year correctly) Dodge Intrepid ES (what a fun car to drive)
2001 Dodge Intrepid
2008 Chrysler 300 DUB Edition (can't believe I own such a beautiful car)
1968 Plymouth Fury lll (hope to restore it someday)

I have in mind what I consider would be an ideal car collection that would involve finding another 1978 Lebaron, another 1983 E-Class, would like a first generation 83 LeBaron convertible, a big-finned classic Mopar from the late 50s-early 60s- preferably an Imperial, a 1968 Dodge Charger (my dream car of all time), and of course, I would keep my 68 Fury and 2008 300. And if a few more happened along, I wouldn't mind at all. The only problem is I seem to always have a very poor money collection. Maybe when I finally retire.

1968 Coronet 2 dr
1970 Dart Swinger 2 dr hardtop (loved the slant six, great car)

I've had a few....

1970 Newport Coupe with the 383. You could land small planes on the hood. :lol: Height of the gas crisis in 75, with a 28 gallon tank, I had to sell.
1995 Cirrus (95 car of the year, bought new, my wife loved that car) Mitsu 3.0 engine, trhough.
1996 Concorde (fully loaded, leather, the whole 9 yards). Blew the timing belt at 140,000.
and of course
My 84 Lebaron convertible......

I think Chryslers are a great value.

88, no joke, if I listed all the vehicles I've owned since 1974, you'd need more bandwidth.....
