What the hell were the designers at Chrysler thinking

My wife's 300C has the battery in the trunk. I would rather have it there for wieght transfer.
I replaced it last winter, took about 10 minutes.
No reason not to drive late model MoPars. They are a blast.
Love the power of the HEMI.
Her 300C is quicker than my stock 1969 340 Dart was. 14.29 vs 14.80.
Handles great, love the comfort & 25MPG on top of that.
Saying there is no reason to drive late model MoPars is a copout.
Judging a car for where the battery is, doesn't make sense. NASCAR happens to put the battery behind the tire. guess it isn't a big deal with them.
