Chrysler LLC has a problem.  They have a whole bunch of fuel-inefficient pickup trucks, vans, and SUVs in their inventory and gas prices show no signs of retreating from the neighborhood of (US)$4.00 a gallon.  What the company needs is a way to make operating a gas guzzler attractive to the motoring public.  In a sort of "turning lemons into lemonade" way, Chrysler says it's offering to do a solid favor for Americans and, in return, reduce their inventory of gas guzzlers.  But, some who have looked beyond the company press release on the "Let's Refuel America" offer say that the only one gaining any favor is Chrysler.
