on the other hand if gas skyrockets to $6 a gallon (which is entirely possible considering the cost of oil is predicted to rise to $200+ per barrel within 18-24 months) then this is not only a great deal, its also one more nail in the coffin for chrysler.

Right. The average price might be $3.61... but it's $4.22 in my town. That makes $2.99 gas look a lot more interesting.

It's not a nail in the coffin for Chrysler. Do you really think that Chrysler is THAT stupid? It's call fuel hedging. They have hedged the fuel, so they won't be paying future prices.

Unless you have a lot of driving to the moon to do or fitted the 150L backup tank. This still isn't much of a deal compared to the cash incentives you are giving up.
