They may well end up as the distributor for a passel of other people's production before it is over. They could sell the assets of the truck group to Nissan-Renault and then buy truck from Nissan-Renault to sell in Dodge dealerships. Presto, no more union workers building Dodge trucks. Get in on the Nissan-Suzuki India venture and get the next generation Neon from there. Presto, low cost small cars. Move all rear wheel drive production to Mexico next to the hemi engine factory. I wonder how many buyers who <strong>Gotta Have a Hemi</strong> know that the engine is made at Chrysler's Ramos Arizpe, Mexico Saltillo Engine plant. Maybe Chrysler does end up looking like Home Depot, a big distributor selling stuff from everyone but making nothing. Cerberus has got to be looking for any port in a storm.

This seems like the perfect marriage to me. Funny, my girlfriend calls Nissan “the Dodge of Japan”–plenty of horsepower, but shoddy interiors and poor reliability.

Remember the Precis? Oy vey! +1 for OldandSlow, the Ghosn-Nardelli partnership was love at first sight. This will work for Nissan/Chrysler the same way it “worked” for Mitsubishi’s Raider and Precis.

IMHO, Nissan-Renault-Chrysler makes more sense than DaimlerChrysler, but how a Porsche-owned Volkswagen fits into this mess is anyone's guess. OldandSlow beat me to the AMC-Renault reference!

Maybe another unequal marriage is in the wings for Chrysler. It's starting to look like American Motors, part deux. I remember when the Chrysler acquired the Jeep brand from Renault. Carlos Ghosn and Robert Nardelli what a pair. Yep, Mitsubishi and Chrysler share platforms and engine technology.
