Ford did something like that a few years ago.

i actually agree 100% with this. if you choose to support your own company, you should be offered benefits. i don't see anything unconstitutional about that. its kind of like my sister who works for neiman markus (however you spell it). they make her wear their own clothes. that may sound ridiculous, but they are giving her a monster discount, and it would be pointless for the company to do so if she didn't support them

Their property, their rules. However they should be worrying about how ****** their vehicles are instead of who is parking where. Even if I was an employee I wouldn't drive their junk vehicles.

I don't know, they'd have to give me a HUGE discount.

The discount is probably somewhere around 25% - 30%, and chances are if you're working for Chrysler, you're probably already a Chrysler fanboy anyway. Its private property so they can make up whatever rules they want. Theres a major Subaru office building in an industrial / office complex down by me (Cooper River park) that does the exact same thing.

When Mercedes and Chrysler were still together it was supposed to happen at work.

I see nothing wrong with it.

I used to have a neon so I could get a premo spot.

I drive the T/A and have no problem parking in the back.
