2005 Chrysler 300C Regular Cab

For some time Chrysler has been threatening to re-invent the sedan back to the way it used to be.And now they've done it.The all-new 2005 Chrysler 300 is the first big rear-wheel-drive sedan to come out of Chrysler in many years.It replaces the front-wheel-drive LH line, which Chrysler has used for years.Back then, there were engineering cases for front-wheel drive, including reduced manufacturing costs and more compact packaging.But new technology has made rear-wheel drive preferable again.Traction control, electronic stability programs, anti-lock brakes, and electronic brake distribution all improve the driver's ability to control the car.And one thing hasn't changed: Rear-wheel drive is much better than front-wheel drive for managing horsepower.The 300C, which comes with a 340-horsepower Hemi V8, is too powerful for front-wheel drive. The Chrysler 300's styling is distinctive, and its interior is roomy, efficient and stylish.The instrument panel and switchgear are easy to read and operate.Pieces of Mercedes-Benz are slipping into Chrysler cars nowadays, and the 300C features a Mercedes-like steering wheel, leather under an arc of wood at the top.
