Chrysler Turns 100. Will It Survive Another 100 Years?
It's TTAC podcast time!
This week, Consumer Guide Automotive publisher Tom Appel stops by to discuss Chrysler turning 100, and we get a fun history lesson. Matthew Guy and I talk about headlight restoration kits, and I fly solo on NASCAR, hitting Dover and next year's schedule.

We thank Matthew Guy and Tom Appel for their time and Matt Posky for editing. Most of all, we thank you for listening!
We’ll see you next time!

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.

Stellantis has too many brands. Chrysler, Alfa Romeo, DS Automobiles, Abarth, Maserati, and Lancia are all at risk. If they shut all six down, they'd still have eight brands.
I owe a 1999 Chrysler Stratus. Great and spacious car and much more fun to drive than any of today´s SUV or crossover. A shame this brand is going now without any clear direction, with just one model and a very uncertain future.
