The buyout still irks me to no end every time I think
about it. Not enough to keep me from getting my
current Dak,though,apparently. They sold the company
out because they were AFRAID. They thought Chrysler
could not survive on it`s own anymore. Plus upper
management wanted to cash in. Hope they`re happy.
