Seeing as how they cant overhaul the whole lineup overnight, this is the next best thing until they can bring out more fuel efficient vehicles.  Go hop in ur priuses and drive off a cliff, please, u whining little bit.... =)<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Frank]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 5th 2008 9:05PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/05/chrysler-to-guarantee-gas-at-2-99-a-gallon-for-three-years/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/05/chrysler-to-guarantee-gas-at-2-99-a-gallon-for-three-years/</guid><description><![CDATA[I use public transportation. :) It would take 4x as long to drive to work.

I know, that if I buy a Chrysler, I will have the piece of mind of lifetime on powertrain, but I KNOW FOR SURE, that I will pay a trip to the dealer at around 90K to get either the engine or transmission done and I'll lose a week here and there on repairs.  If they go under in five years, then I'm stuck with a very big paper weight.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[icu812ru469]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 6th 2008 9:27AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/05/chrysler-to-guarantee-gas-at-2-99-a-gallon-for-three-years/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/05/chrysler-to-guarantee-gas-at-2-99-a-gallon-for-three-years/</guid><description><![CDATA[Wow, do you actually think that Crysler is taking that risk themselves?

If gas averages $3.50/gal for the next three years, and you buy 50 gal per month (1,000 miles/mo at 20 mpg), this program saves you $300 per year.  Total cost to Chrysler: $900.<br><br>If gas prices go ballistic, this is a pretty sweet deal.  But I'd say it indicates that Chrysler believes gas will stay in the $3-4 range for a while.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[srivendel]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 5th 2008 7:19PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/05/chrysler-to-guarantee-gas-at-2-99-a-gallon-for-three-years/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/05/chrysler-to-guarantee-gas-at-2-99-a-gallon-for-three-years/</guid><description><![CDATA[Should we be doing "Lets Refuel America" or should we be doing "Lets Get America Off Of Oil"<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Johnny]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 5th 2008 7:20PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/05/chrysler-to-guarantee-gas-at-2-99-a-gallon-for-three-years/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/05/chrysler-to-guarantee-gas-at-2-99-a-gallon-for-three-years/</guid><description><![CDATA[1- I agree with you that they chose a very bad name. Lets refuel America sounds very negative like wasting gas or having disregard for whats happening out there. <br><br>2- Secondly these types of gimicks dont change the overall deal. They takeaway another incentive to add this one. I bought a HHR for my daughter last November. GM had a 3000 cash back, plus zero percent 48 months plus zero deposit, 200 gas card and tons more jazz. If I got zero percent forexample my cash back would fall to 2000 from 3000. Anyways, my head was spinning so I told the guy I cant handle it anymore. He said fine are you paying cash I said yes. He said 4000 bucks off right now right a check and were done dont ask for anything else. I said deal.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Sam]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 5th 2008 7:39PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/05/chrysler-to-guarantee-gas-at-2-99-a-gallon-for-three-years/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/05/chrysler-to-guarantee-gas-at-2-99-a-gallon-for-three-years/</guid><description><![CDATA[If you see the card at the top it says two thing: Jeep Grand Cherokee and 87 Octane. This means the card cant be passed out to other people to fill up on the cheap.<br>So now we are going to have a problem.<br>Imagine a tough guy with this card and his Ford goes to a gas station. He wants to fill up for 2.99 but the clerk says he drives a Ford. The guy starts yelling and harrases the pumpman until he relents and gives him his gas.<br>We may see stabbings at gas stations if gas is 4.50 and someone refuses to honor the 2.99 price.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Adam500]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 5th 2008 7:46PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/05/chrysler-to-guarantee-gas-at-2-99-a-gallon-for-three-years/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/05/chrysler-to-guarantee-gas-at-2-99-a-gallon-for-three-years/</guid><description><![CDATA[I bet you will see these cards for sale on e-Bay.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[George]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 5th 2008 7:50PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/05/chrysler-to-guarantee-gas-at-2-99-a-gallon-for-three-years/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/05/chrysler-to-guarantee-gas-at-2-99-a-gallon-for-three-years/</guid><description><![CDATA[@Adam500, that's not how the program works, at all... ]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jason]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 5th 2008 10:37PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/05/chrysler-to-guarantee-gas-at-2-99-a-gallon-for-three-years/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/05/chrysler-to-guarantee-gas-at-2-99-a-gallon-for-three-years/</guid><description><![CDATA[Hey chrysler!how about you guarantee us that you will stop making crap?how about that?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Thedevil]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 5th 2008 7:25PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/05/chrysler-to-guarantee-gas-at-2-99-a-gallon-for-three-years/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/05/chrysler-to-guarantee-gas-at-2-99-a-gallon-for-three-years/</guid><description><![CDATA[Now that would be a sweet deal]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[captainslow]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 5th 2008 7:32PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/05/chrysler-to-guarantee-gas-at-2-99-a-gallon-for-three-years/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.autoblog.com/2008/05/05/chrysler-to-guarantee-gas-at-2-99-a-gallon-for-three-years/</guid><description><![CDATA[Hey thedevil, when the last time you drove a new Chrysler product?
