New Dart, Anyone have one?

As I stated earlier, there was a ton of issue's with the earlier Dart's from the get go. A lot of quality control problems and just plain bad engineering. They came off the truck and went straight to service to be fixed. These things had warranty claims before they had titles. But, they have come a loooooong way since then.
As for the name, my opinion is this, the Dart now is what the Dart then was, a small entry level family car. If they hadn't retired the name in 1976 I would think that several models that we know today by other names would have been "Dart" to include Shadow and Neon. As Shakespeare said "a rose by any other name"
