Scotty, what are my best odds of having a question answered on one of your YouTube videos? Question: my sons mother works HR at Chrysler and has to drive one of their products, what model, engine, transmission, Chrysler product would you say is the best quality and less likely to have issues if you had to buy one. Your the man, thanks

Lease whatever Chrysler product she plans to drive.
If you can find an old Plymouth Valiant or Dodge Dart (a real Dart, not the Fiat crap) that isn't rusted to pieces those things will run forever with the slant-six engine and Torqueflite transmission.
I would avoid any Chrysler product made later than the early 1970s with the possible exception of Jeeps equipped with the straight-six engine.
Great car. My grandfather had that exact Dart in green.
Get an old Jeep.
She has to buy the car herself and pay for the repairs and maintenance herself too?! 😮
Personally I would never buy and drive a Chrysler product due to their lack of quality. But if it doesn't matter how old the car is or in what condition we once bought a neighbor's 2000 Chrysler town and country for $1000 and drove it until it needed expensive repairs so maybe she can do something like this.
If you really want to fake them out pick up an old AMC Concord or Eagle to drive to work since they're part of the Chrysler "family".
I’m reading that as referring to new model Chrysler products. In which case get a Ram 2500 with a Cummins diesel, or a Ram 1500 with a hemi V8. Or a 2-door wrangler.
Are you talking about trucks? cars? suvs? new? old? - as a replacement to her current car? or just for work?
If she's looking for any Chrysler for as a vehicle to not put too many miles on and still only to show up in a Chrysler product:
Then I'd try to find a cheap low milage (It's very important because these are famously mediocre) Dodge Dart,
it's an Alfa Romeo Giulietta under the hood, they're cheap used, and they last fine for the first 100k-125k miles.
They're disposable cars - and as such they're only worth a few grand even when not too old and low millage.
In the current market they're going for more than they should, but still 1/2 of the competition.
BUT BEWARE, it is a cheap solution to "have a Chrysler" - but the car is cheap, unreliable and overall pretty terrible.
I would never buy a Chrysler product or Stellantis product. But if I HAD to get one for work, these are my preferences in order:
Jeep Wrangler / Rubicon
Jeep Grand Wagoneer
Dodge Challenger
Jeep Grand Cherokee
Dodge Charger
Chrysler 300
If I had to choose one out of my own personal choice not associated with work, I’d get a RAM with a diesel Cummins and Aisin transmission if they still exist
If she has $80K, might as well get a Jeep Wagoneer Series II. Otherwise, the new Grand Cherokee Limited is also nice. It is $50K for a regular one and $55K for the three-row L model.
