Chrysler Campaigning for Customers!

By John Coyle

One of the hot topics in the race for the White House has been a so-called "gas tax holiday." And while this would temporarily lower prices, the plans has been met with skepticism from economists, who believe—quite correctly—that the idea is political bluster. But given the amount of ink the prospect of cheap gas is generating, Ma Mopar has decided to launch a gas plan of her own. The "Let’s Refuel America" program would guarantee purchasers of some Chrysler vehicles $2.99 per-gallon fuel for the next three years, which should mean substantial savings for buyers who bite before June 2nd. What do you think: Will this help combat Chrysler’s dismal drop in sales? Or will it wind up doing more harm than good?
