Chrysler is just whoring itself out to Europe. It was a Daimler company, and now it is part Italian. I guess it is good that Fiat has city cars for Chrysler to sell.

Ford owned those. Chrysler just likes to have lots of partners. Chrysler is easily the whore of the automotive industry.

yes they are the whores of the auto industry but this partnership seems like it will be clean and enjoyable unlike daimler, fiat has cars that chrylser can use.

They seem to dovetail rather nicely. Hope it works out for the best.

Well a partnership that generates more revenue is certainly better than Chapter 11 or 7. And they definitely seem to have complimentary offerings.
