This story was written by John McElroy. That should tell you something. LOL
I disagree with his summation (read the full story), what do you think?
My money is on a new deal with the UAW. I'll post one on that in a minute or so.

:O)

AM General is apparently interested in getting Jeep back, per some rumors.

Also, the Chinese didn’t want it; the Indians weren’t interested. Fiat isn’t really solvent, and PSA is broken.

Why on earth would anyone want to buy this foundering ship with its UAW anchor still firmly attached?

[Sawdring]

Ferrari wants it!

Who Gets Chrysler Next?

Who'd want it?

[Gideon Reader]

Why should I care?
Chrysler has been teetering on the brink of total failure since I was a young guy. Iaccoa and Gerry ford. bailouts and guarentees to prop up a major auto company that has consistantly produced gar-Barge since just after WWII.
Free enterprise means let the market decide.

He’s got several things wrong... “pruning the dealer base”??? What the hell? Of course not. EXPANDING might be more like it.

And as far as engineering, Chrysler was the major drivetrain engineer for DCX, not the other way around. Daimler LOST it’s engineering muscle when it split off Chrysler.

Yes, Daimler USED Chrysler for everything it could use it for, from buying overpriced parts, to using personell and engineering charged to Chrysler to support Daimler.

Don’t look now, but Daimler’s the one that shafted themselves... Chrysler’s raring to go. All that pent-up aggravation and revenge is in every fiber of the Chrysler bunch over here, to get back at show up Daimler.

if ANYONE can pull off a huge turnaround, it’ll be the people at Chrysler. Expect less than a year to start seeing a wake forming as that ship jumps into “warp” mode.

I can take it for a week, I guess. Maybe end of July?
