His appearance in the light of "The Tramp" (the English translation of the word Prowler) required the president to "Chrysler" Bob Lutz.
In May 1990, in the design studio Pacifica Design Center in Carlsbad, California, held a contest called "Marketplace." Among the huge number of ideas was cardboard 3 by 5 inches with drawing and explanatory text: "retro-style" Hot Rod. "In November of the same year, this studio visit Bob Lutz and his eye catches this same pattern. Being adventurous man, he turns this idea. [1]
A year later, the head of Pacifica Design Tom Tremont first calls the project named Prowler. "Good" for the development of "Rolling Stone" was received in July 1992. Was scheduled to debut at the North American Motor Show in Detroit in six months.
In October 1992, he was selected for the color of the future car - a purple two-layer paint with stunning effect of depth. In the words of Gale, "depth of a meter" [1]. Especially for this paint was developed special primer, also violet. Therefore, even in places where scratches and chips in color remained the same.
In January 1993 Prowler was presented at the exhibition in Detroit. It was decided to collect "Tramp" is not on the primary production, and by hand, but the issue should be a serial. After a year of "Prauler" reappears in public - at the Detroit International Auto Show. It was the same concept car, a year ago. However, this is an example of a forthcoming production model. [1]

His trip Bob Eaton concluded with the words: "I want to take him home". [1] To test drive "Rogue" has been carefully disguised bodywork from the jeep "Rangler" with the bottom cut out. This strange car was nicknamed "Pranglerom."
As a production car "Prauler" was presented at the show in Detroit in January 1997. Visitors to the exhibition do not believe it. [1]
