Wat tier/Fanboy tier get's axed (no Buick, GMC, Pontiac, Jeep.) Now RD costs drop a bit and more can be offered to the Chevy+Caddy/Dodge+Chrysler/Ford+Lincoln through retooled 'echo friendly' factories under Gov help.

Wouldn't be surprised if this was what the Government made them do.. which I actually could live with.

Chevrolet/Ford/Dodge: Microcombact, Subcompact, Compact, Midsize, Sport Coupe, MXVR, XVR, Truck
- No real changes

Caddy/Lincoln/Chrysler: Sedan; MXVR, XVR
-All RWD/AWD. All DI4/6. TT Performance types?

Work now? Input?
Jeep isn't going anywhere, it is the big moneymaker for Chrysler.. that is why they are dropping the Durango and not the Cherokee...
