new 320cdi chrysler 300

I read a road test of the above noted car in the local paper this morning. They did a driving test and evaluation with no acceleration tests or such. They said they got 40 mpg hiway with it. That is just fabulous in a big car like the chrysler, though I got about 30 in my rental with the 2.7 gasser a couple of years back when we went out west.

Unfortunately they said that it is a non production that is out there for evaluation and the production of it is uncertain given the present status of chrysler having new owners and such.
