Nice images at the Dodge Half Marathon events.

Any chance someone could make one of the events to grab a few pics of Gen3 D? Then maybe replace some of the older Gen1 images with the new?

Dodge Half Marathon events.

That's two marathons Marketing has been at with the Gen3 D. I wonder who got to Dodge from a PR/Marketing perspective and told them runners were their target market?

Cross Country/Marathon Runners from my perspective do tend to have a higher demographic income ($200 shoes), Yuppie-types, import buyers, so maybe that's it. Obviously with no runners here to speak of, that's a change in thinking and marketing from Gen1/Gen2? but then again the Gen3 is a different On-Road type of beast.

I'm thinking Soccer-Mom 2.0

That base model needs some "spice" IMHO too. The angle perspective of the rear corner left it to a van-ish appearance as well.

What does that mean? I don't understand the request.

They're playing to their desired market. Those folks want crossover vehicles not SUV's. That's what they've built after all, so PR is right on track I'd think.

Get or obtain new images of the Gen3 where the photographer has the rights to post on the internet or get permission from Dodge to use the Gen3 image on the banner and intro main page (that I haven't seen in three + years.)

{Just my observation:} And why does our group here seem to have mostly non-positive comments towards the new? "Change" is always go to be happening, progress ya' know.

Looks way too domesticated for me. :(

I had high hopes for this one. Looks like the quality is there now, but it's wayyyy too "mom" oriented now :(

Who the heck is non positive? Without seeing it in person, should we all just say how great it looks?
We were all hyped by the pre-production Gen 2 (which I have a cool DVD of) and later Gen 2's looked better, but the concept still wasn't there.
The Gen 3 does look good and we hope to see and be able to drive one soon? otherwise it's a Challenger, Charger or Ram (I know big differences) for me.

Enough with the pics already. The truck is beautiful in its own right. What about important stuff like M P Gs?? Get to the stuff that really matters. All I'm seeing is pretty pictures.

I'm afraid you're right on this one.

I need an SRT model to be sold. Looks like a great starting platform waiting for some aggressive upgrades.

Please let us in the BOD worry about what's tangible in dealing with Dodge and photographer rights.

Press released photos are pubic domain INTENDED for distribution.
