The last several owners of CJD don't seem to get the American midsize and small market segments, do they?

In the end...it'll just be Jeep. Nothing Chrysler will exist.

The midsize and small car markets are not there anymore. Light trucks and SUV's account for more than 60% of the market across all brands.

"Not there" ??? Where? My 3rd grade math tells me that leaves 40%. 17.5 million vehicles were sold in the U.S. in 2015. That's missing out on a share of 7 million cars per year.

I agree with you, but the bean counters don't agree with either of us.

Karma's a *****.....Chrysler Corp. bought AMC for the Jeep and destroyed company records and warehouses full of NOS parts that could have been used to restore many AMC vehicles.
