Wouldn't it be great if Jeep broke off and became its own entity again?
Maybe then we could dump the libby, IFS, and get a small Jeep again.

Wishful thinking I know. Sigh...

Report: GM in talks to buy Chrysler

Dale Jewett | | Automotive News / February 14, 2007 - 4:39 pm





DaimlerChrysler is reportedly talking with General Motors about the
possibility of GM's buying the Chrysler group, according to the German
magazine Manager Magazin.

The magazine cited company sources as saying the talks were in full
swing but still at an early stage.

The report came today as DaimlerChrysler AG said it was open to all
options for the Chrysler group. Chrysler today unveiled a restructuring
plan
as it posted a $1.47 billion loss for 2006. That plan calls for cutting
13,000 jobs in the United States and Canada by 2009.

DaimlerChrysler CEO Dieter Zetsche declined to comment on the report.

"I cannot and will not go into any further details," Zetsche told
reporters in Detroit, where he announced the automaker's 2006 results.

A GM spokeswoman also declined to comment on the report.

DaimlerChrysler has retained JPMorgan Chase & Co. to consider
options
for the Chrysler group, the Detroit News reported this afternoon.

In a report on its Web site, the newspaper quoted unidentified
company
sources as saying the automaker had hired the investment bank.

No mention of Jeep...

Re: D-C might become just D and C.
 

I wonder what is the smallest size a viable car company in the current
US market is? Would an independent Jeep be able to survive on it's own?

Somehow I doubt it, and if it DID it would really have to be a privately
held company, otherwise someone would swallow it up.

For Jeep to be a successful company all on it's own I think it would
either need someone or a small group of people with very deep pockets.

Hmm, wonder what Bill Gates drives?
