Why can't I find a Chrysler Aspen on the Chrysler website?

Question 1
Why can't I find a Chrysler Aspen on the Chrysler website?...  I have looked at the website and saw the vehicle lineup, but nowhere did it show the Aspen. I'm interested about learning more about this car, but through the internet... not by going to a dealer so I can get those annoying "come back" and "special offer" phone calls. Any help?

Answers
1)   They've discontinued that particular model: no 2010s were produced.

Check one of the buying-advice sites like edmunds.com or MSN Autos. - Windowphobe

2)   The Aspen has been discontinued. If you really like the car, then get a Dodge Durango. It is the exact same car, just different emblems. - Kenny

3)   Dodge stopped making the aspen in 1980.


google dodge aspen wiki

That should get you started.

Dodge website will be geared toward current production - chris c

4)   The Chrysler Aspen, their version of the Dodge Durango, was discontinued. If you want a brand new Aspen, you'll have to stick with a Durango. - Turbo Joe

5)   They don't make it anymore, but I drove one two years ago and it rocked! What I don't get is that all of the websites that have reviews smash it but I loved my Aspen. It was quiet, got fairly good gas mileage, had no problems, and the price was amazing. You could get a used one for a good price. The Aspen is cool. - Adam

I have an 2001 chyrsler sebring. The mechanic told me it will cost 600 to replace the O2 sensor? Accurate?...  It seems a little high

Answers
1)   i think a bit overpriced try other mechanics shops - Mike

2)   That's insane! I'd say less than half. Maybe $250. - Love The Beast Falcon XB GT

3)   Call your local Chrysler dealer and ask the parts department what the cost of tow O2 sensor are. Then call autozone, or another parts store, and get a price from them. That way you'll know for sure if you're being overcharged. - Mike

4)   that is really high. they arent hard to replace and they usually range in price from $20 to $100. unless he is replacing 4 or 5 thats too high. - sa05freshman91

Question 4
Is a chrysler 300 a good car to have?...  Is a chrysler 300a good car to have? what is its ratings and does it get broken a lot of is a very good car?

Answers
1)   The Chrysler 300 is a great car! Especially with the HEMI, it should be pretty much trouble-free. You shouldn't always listen to what people say, like Toyota is always know for its quality, but all I am hearing now is how the gas pedals stick. So Chrysler is regarded as crappy, but I have been a loyal Chrysler customer for 22 years and they were all trouble-free. The 300 is cool. - Adam

2)   They are very troublesome and expensive to repair. Electrical problems, suspension problems, transmission. They only thing good about them is the way they look. Stay away from them. - Mike

3)   You should also consider that such a car may be expensive to insure. Check your insurance rates before buying one, for example here - carinsurance.deep-ice.com - Steve

4)   I own one and love it. The car is a good car but like all cars have their downsides. The 300 series have VERY weak front ends. I have had to do the balljoints both sides twice in the past 4 years. $1000 each time was the minimal cost.

So some would say that is crazy expensive, others think not. For the quality of the ride and the enjoyment factor, I'm still driving mine! - viennatech

Question 5
what kind of plug wires, cap and rotor should i use on a 89 chrysler fifth avenue 5.2 L?...  

Answers
1)   chrysler OEM parts would be the best, it's what your car came with from the factory. but that would be expensive.

if this car is just your daily driver and not a "show" car, I would suggest going to the local auto parts store and buy what they recommended or have on the shelf that's reasonably priced.

BTW- don't forget to change the spark plugs at the same time - PAUL

2)   Champion spark plugs r12yc if my mind serves me right, whatever brand you can find with brass inserts for the cap and rotor, (it lasts longer than cheaper aluminum ones), and any kind of plug wire will usually do the trick. make sure to keep the plug wires away from the exhaust manifolds so they won't melt, and always check the spark plug gaps even though they come gapped already, your gap should be .035 inch. - HunnyBunny

3)   Champion plugs and the rest mopar. - done wrenching
