Chrysler dealers closing

[WhiteOut]

Are there any Chrysler dealers in or close to Calgary that are closing?  Ive read about some sick deals to be had.

The only one I have heard about was the GM dealer in Three Hills.

Stampede
Northland
Shaganappi
GM dealers that got the 'letter'.

Both shaganappi's or just one? I am a fan of the general but there were way to many dealerships in Calgary. Three Hills shouldn't have been closed IMO its the only dealership in that town and Drumheller would be the next closest place.

i do not know.
i never knew there were 2. Actually i thought Northland was Shaganappi?
But i was told those 2 were given letters.

Northland was a Pontiac, buick and GMC dealer, and Shag is a chevy dealer.  That will be interesting because I leased my truck from Northland

I work at Platinum Mitsubishi and from what our General Manager said Chrysler Canada is playing dirty. they aren't really telling any of the dealers either way. Chrysler financial was folded in to GMAC. and the word is Chrysler told GMAC which dealers to give loans and which ones not to.

I know in the US there are a bunch of dealers that have till June 6th to get rid of all there stock there was an Article on CNN.com about it.

I wouldn't be surprised if there was at least 1 chrysler dealer that closed in Calgary. not sure which one tho.

just a reminder tho for those looking for deals, resale on American cars in horrible as they keep under cutting there prices. Also Chrysler and GM both can't get parts there Vehicles Chrysler is Worse but GM is soon to follow. even if your new car has warranty it could be up to 6months before you get your part to fix your Vehicle.

and honestly would you really buy anything from a company that is going bankrupt? I am a little biased but it just doesn't sound like a smart decision to me. it dont make sense.

It will be fun to see what happens in the next few years in the Car industry.

If I knew there was one closing in Calgary and needing to sell i would be bumping up the purchase of my JK. But i guess i'll have to wait and see.

With all the Gm dealers closing I wonder how many are trying to pick up other companies. A couple more Toyota Delores would be great.
Also I was reading that Land Rover and Mercedes will be bringing more of their other more affordable lines to North Amarica.
I am really hoping for the Defenders at the same price as a GM, Ford or Dodge.

I'll second the comment about chrysler parts, The last few days I have been trying to get stuff ordered there have been major backorders. We have had to go to wreckers for used parts. I really really hate having to do that. But no choice on some parts.

Unfortunately, my 1980 Mercedes 300SD Turbo diesel was three times the car of the newer "affordable" lines.

ya but they are still better then anything Gm or Ford build. The only two things good about Chrysler nowadays is the Cummings that they don't build and JKs and some will argue that.

My neighbor works(ed) at Northland. They got the axe.... but it will be turned into a KIA dealership. He has a job with them, but he is pretty sure he is going back to Ford.

KIA?! Seriously?!!!! WTF?
