This is the mindset that I run into more often than not when talking with
Mopar people. Surprisingly more so with the older (read 60+) Mopar lovers.
When I match their wistful story of a long gone Fury, New Yorker, or
whatever with a story about my Imperial the response is usually " Oh yea I
remember those ". Then the subject is either switched back to their Fury or
Coronet or I am treated to an Imperial horror story.
I had one Mopar lover tell me flat out that a 67 Imperial that he had owned
was his worst car ever! (before he knew that I had a 67 Coupe. then he was
plenty embarrassed).
Strange behavior from Chrysler lovers , but it seems more the rule than the
exception in my experience.
