I thought that when I saw this on the new web site for MP that I almost
laffed myself to death :
"The 1999 Mopar Performance Parts catalog reflects the new attitude
permeating DaimlerChrysler Corporation and Mopar - the acknowledgement that
rapid response to customer demands and proactive
engineering and development of new products are the keys to success both on
and off the track.
We have developed new parts in response to our customers current
requirements and have created additional new products in anticipation of
emerging trends. <snip> "
Rapid response ? Wonder if they must be in that Bizzaro world where up is
down , and down is up . Good is bad and bad is good . Rapid response is
actually going in revers........Do you see a pattern imerging here ?
