DETROIT (Reuters) - The Chrysler arm of DaimlerChrysler, following in the footsteps of its Detroit rivals, said on Wednesday that it too will now offer big employee discounts to the general public.

General Motors Corp. has been selling anybody a 2005 model car or truck at the same low prices GM employees pay since last month.

The world's largest automaker extended the employee discount program through Aug. 1 on Tuesday, prompting Ford Motor Co. to say it was matching the consumer incentives program that delivered blockbuster sales for GM in June.

Chrysler said its program, which began Wednesday and lasts through Aug. 1, would shave thousands of dollars off the sticker prices of most 2005 models.

Dubbed "Employee Pricing Plus," the discount program does not include the hot-selling Chrysler 300 sedan, the Dodge Magnum wagon or the all-new Dodge Charger, a Chrysler spokesman said.

He said the Dodge Viper sports car and vehicles from Chrysler's SRT performance line were also excluded from the discount program.

its funny, some guys who were keeping tabs on incentives said this promotion actually raised the prices on most of the vehicles, because the cash backs got lowered, so chrysler is making out a few hundred better on these vehicles then they were last month anyway

clever marketing
