how could they. They are not just pulling from the US but are shutting
there doors soon. To confirm this, I stopped at a dealer today to see if
they had direct reports from the makers. They said yes it is true...So much
for the 10 year warranty. I would never buy a car from them either.

It's much worse than that.

"According to the Financial Times Deutschland, the plans for Chrysler
and Mitsubishi go beyond sharing
components. The companies could split the cost of developing new models
and sell identical cars."

This line is the most disturbing:

"Capitol[German magazine] published that under the new plan Chrysler
would lose responsibility for its own
technical development, and the US arm will be directed from Stuttgart,
Germany, and Tokyo."

They also said:

"Bloomberg reports the breakdown of divisions as follows: Luxury
division, representing Mercedes-Benz cars; a
compact and small cars unit, including Chrysler, Mitsubishi and
Smartcars; a sport-utility vehicle unit, including
the Mercedes-Benz M-class model, the Jeep brand and Mitsubishi
sport-utility vehicles; and a
commercial-vehicle subsidiary, including heavy trucks."

One of the things that popped into my head: "Um, where's Dodge?"

For the first time since this mess started, I'm seriously thinking the
end is *not* near. It's *here*.
