I Have Seen The Future of Chrysler And....

The Fiat 500 competes with the Cooper that all the magazines love. Fiat will likely save Chrysler if they can get rid of the quality stigma and bankrupcy stigma that is currently holding Chrysler back.

The trucks will all be Rams now. No Dodge tags on it anywhere.....Are they going to sell it off to GM? Was that the government's plan?

The new Durango..yes it is coming back as the new WD has Dodge tags, not Ram...I wonder what that means? Makes me think more that the gov't wants to get rid of a truck builder. It will be built at JNAP with the new Grand Cherokee.

Jeep is going more rugged. The cars made into Jeeps are going away.

The mid sized cars will be produced by Fiat.

Alfa Romeo is coming back to the states under the deal.

All small cars are now being produced in Mexico. Ford proved this is the only way they can be profitable..

The last line of your post is true but very sad. The only way we can turn a profit is to build the cars in Mexico. That is the big problem with our country. Manufacturing is dead. What was once the life blood of our great country is now on life support. You being from Michigan surely need no reminder of this. The ripple effect from the loss of manufacturing in the USA has caused irreversible dmagae to our society.
