The Tonight Show’s host, Jay Leno has uploaded a video on his… GM sponsored website dubbed “Jay Leno’s Garage” featuring his most recent acquisition, the 2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8. Among other things, Jay Leno states that he is very happy to see that Dodge/Chrysler returned back to American hands and that it's creating products like the Challenger. Of course, Jay Leno seems to forget that the decision to create the Challenger was taken during the time that Daimler controlled Chrysler and that Dodge’s modern muscle car features components derived from the discontinued W210 Mercedes-Benz E-Class… -Video after the jump

Made in Detroit eh, Jay? Last I heard the car's made up in Canada.
Jay is just another right-wing idiot with more money than he deserves.
Spare us all.
You are right, it's made in Canada. I think what he was trying to say is that its something that "Detroit built" - as in the Big 3 collectively put something out like this.
As for the "right wing nut job" comment - Leno is certainly not a right-winger.
He's stated time and agin that he's a liberal on social, enviornmental, etc issues. So you're a bit off there.
Regardless, the guy likes all cars. In this case, he's just a little proud that such a nice car came from a Big 3 automaker. How is that left or right wing?
Good piece btw. I enjoyed it. Is there a website where you can view other Leno Garage episodes?
