#398 of 464 Don't forget the Fat Lady. [bpizzuti] by gagrice Jun 09, 2009 (5:12 pm)
Replying to: bpizzuti (Jun 09, 2009 4:31 pm) The appeals come as Congress scrutinizes the Obama administration's restructuring of Chrysler and GM. The Senate Banking Committee said it planned to call Ron Bloom, a senior adviser to the auto task force, and Edward Montgomery, who serves as the Obama administration's director of recovery for auto communities and workers, to a hearing Wednesday.   Congress still has a say in this. Will they wilt under the pressure of King Barry?

How will they make money when we may never see that big of a sales year again? I don't think the EPA and CARB will sit still for Fiat/Chrysler to bring their fuel efficient diesels to the USA. So what does Fiat have to offer in this flaky deal? Replies to this message: dtownfb (Jun 09, 2009 6:10 pm) mickeyrom (Jun 10, 2009 7:41 am)

So what does Fiat have to offer in this flaky deal?   Nothing! Which is why I give this marriage only a few years.   Fiat does have the fuel efficient engines that Chrysle desperately needs. I don't know how quickly they cna get these vehicles over here. I also don't know who is going to buy a vehicle from Chrysler or Fiat.   These are interesting times.....
#401 of 464 Supreme Ct clears way...... by dtownfb Jun 10, 2009 (6:26 am)
Here's an interesting article discussing the appeal by the Indiana pension funds. The last section "Merits of the Case" is very telling. Chrysler was valued at less than $1B so the secured bondholders actually made out better with this deal.   http://money.cnn.com/2009/06/09/news/economy/supreme_court_chrysler/index.htm?po- stversion=2009061004

Replying to: gagrice (Jun 09, 2009 5:18 pm) I believe all the major airlines lose money every year,but they are still very much here.You get my point? Our economy is pretty weird. There are many things that happen that make no sense to me.My company was sold in 1998 for $250,000,000.....the previous year,we grossed $500,000,000....does that make sense? I guess just don't understand business.
#403 of 464 The Poorly Ran Airlines by andres3 Jun 11, 2009 (10:22 am)
That have gone bankrupt or re-emerged were so poorly managed and ran that they are terrible examples of a business model that works.   Also, Chrysler is so MUCH MORE poorly ran that it makes the BAD airlines of yesteryear look like SAINTS.

Operations of Chrysler in our country is not affected. Good condition.

Replying to: jpf (Jun 04, 2009 2:57 pm) I've only owned one Chrysler product and it turned out to be one of the best cars I've ever owned - a 1985 Chrysler Fifth Avenue. I sold it to my brother 16 years ago and he's still driving it.
#406 of 464 AN is reporting today by nippononly Jun 29, 2009 (12:29 pm)
that Fiat will sell Fiat-branded 500s (a subcompact) through the Chrysler network beginning in 2011. That's not far off. I'm cheered if this all ends up succeeding, because I would have a lot of interest in a 500, if it had a standard 3/36-5/60 warranty.
#407 of 464 nippon... by iluvmysephia1 Jun 29, 2009 (12:59 pm)
why wouldn't Fi-Chrysler sell it with a 3/36-5/60 Warranty? Sure they will!   The Fiat 500 is a cool car, I'd have to say I'm interested in it as well. Replies to this message: nippononly (Jun 29, 2009 1:38 pm)
