Message from the President
This past week I had the pleasure of attending the New Car Announcement Show.  Steven Landry our Senior Vice President of sales, took us through the new exciting products we have heading to our showroom and programs that have been dropped and some new refreshed programs that they are bringing to us in the next few months. It was also the first time we were able to hear from our new Chairman Bob Nardelli and President CEO Jim Press.  Their messages were not only informational but truly inspirational and encouraging.  They spoke a little about their background and where they intend to take the New Chrysler LLC.  The messages came truly from the heart and we all (over 2500 US, Canadian and Mexican dealers and over 1000 Chrysler field and stall personal) walked away with the confidence that we not only had the right players in place but the plan was right for the time.  They reminded us that they could do nothing about history but pointed out several changes they have already made and plan to take in the next 100 days to make us a strong viable US company again.  Both spoke off their prepared speeches and brought a standing ovation at the end.  A truly emotional and historical moment.
