The times, they are a changin’. A lot of
the changes are good ones. Like, if you
get sick, our healthcare professionals
have the technology to pretty much cure
what ails you. Our smartphones enable
us to access data of all kinds, take photos, and stay in touch with each other.
We have cars that are reliable, comfortable and yet have unreal horsepower.
But if you’re like me, some changes,
well, not so good. For example, all
this talk lately to get rid of a certain
historic symbol that has played an
important role in the development of
our great nation. Here’s a symbol that
for decades has represented the core
values of a group of folks that has been
now relegated to the musty trashbin of
museums by the naysayers. Yes, boys
and girls, I am speaking of our beloved
PentaStar.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, I’ve ranted about
this one before. Sometimes I think I
need to grow a mullet (if only I could)
like that ranting editor of MCG. Let’s
look at the history on the birth of the
PentaStar, created by Robert Stanley,
at the Lippincott & Margulies design firm
in 1962. In his own words, “We wanted
something simple, a classic, dynamic
but stable shape for a mark that would
lend itself to a highly designed, styled
product,” Stanley said in a blog in 2007.
“What that meant, basically, was a classic geometric form.”
What was really cool was how that
small badge quietly appeared on the
passenger side of our cars, down low
by the rocker just behind the front wheel
well. Yet that humble location was offset
by its color: it was gold, representing
the understated sense of pride by the
builders. And Mopar extended that
sense of pride to the dealerships, too. If
you wanted to buy a Mopar, or get yours
serviced, going to a 5-Star dealership
meant something.
In recent years, Ma Mopar has been
taken over by furriners. Two European,
and a Canadian company have owned
the Chrysler Corporation. Mercedes
dropped the PentaStar while they
owned the company, but it was brought
back by the Canadian Cerebus outfit.
Now, it’s Fiat in the drivers seat, and
what do we get for a logo? Three
letters: FCA. I ain’t putting that on
my fender.
I’ve done some mods to my ‘14
Challenger. A short-shift kit, an oil
catch can, polished sill plates. But
the one that makes me smile? The
little gold six dollar PentaStar on the
passenger side, just above the rocker
and behind the front wheel well.
