Rumor Has It That In 2010 Or 2011 The New Fiat 500 & 600 Lines Will Be Available In Most Deailerships & Fiat Plans To Also Build (Or Take Over) Separate Deailerships. But Like I Said That Last Statement Is More Rumor,But The Above Statement Is True.....Purchase Was Completed Sometime In June.

GM put out a press release mentioning all the assembly lines to be closed in the near future, don't know if Chrysler has done that. Detroit News website is a good place to check up on for that type of news, or my blog here! :) I try to keep abreast of all the assembly line and dealer closures, as I support the working class and unions. These days, though, it's hard to keep track. Kathi

After losing my business last year, his job is the only income supporting us. It's disappointing to see the icons fade into the sunset, yes; but what about the thousands of American workers who will join the ranks of an exploding "unemployed" category? This is a disaster. I don't know what we will do. Does anyone know how to pry some good information out of Dodge or Chrysler about which exact dealerships will get the ax?

They just want the $11billion so they can ride out the storm for another year. Then it would just be a slug fest between Ford,Toyota, and the GM behemoth Being a mopar fan, I really would be disapoint if Chrysler went into the history books like Packard, Hudson, and Auburn. There goes another 80 year old company taking it for the economy. Marc Fournier I am not going to lie, the auto industry is screwed up right now, but is narrowing the field really going to help GM?
