To be honest, we're surprised something like this didn't pop up sooner. Chrysler is riffing on gift registries for couples getting married or expecting babies and cross-pollinating it with a social media funding website like Kickstarter to help customers buy its 2013 Dodge Dart.

But now, by way of the rumormill anyway, we've got at least one proposed, potentially Dodge-based rendering to light our way. Seen here is what would appear to be a ...

Chrysler added a third shift to the Belvidere, Illinois plant that produces the new compact in order to satiate projected demand, and as a result, Dodge now ...
