Chrysler is making the wrong cars. Forget their old history. Seems like their styling department came from the 70's car technology of 80's. Not only that. Chrysler is making the wrong cars.

Sometimes to get over this, they have to let it go bankrupt, let the new owners draw up a new pay scheme. When the company is losing money, how to think about the workers, when in this case, the workers are sucking all the money away? So Paul, is it allright to buy a Chevrolet here? I'm sure it's difficult for you to answer but if given a choice, definately try to avoid, right? Yes, longjaafar, you are absolutely right.

Even during a complete shutdown, workers are still paid 80%of their salary, and they are given pensions and all sorts of perks which are unheard of in countries like Japan and the eastern block. That is why one of the major stumbling blocks that hindered any form of restructuring is the unions, which weild so much power. I therefore doubt if the industry will ever get back on their feet again, not in thr present from, at least. The problem with US auto makers is that the unions are too strong.
