Possible GM and Chrysler merger...

[Marv]

Anyone else hear much about this? I saw something the other day, but I don't think much has taken place since then.

Interesting concept, but I don't know that I'd like the outcome. Plus, with both companies struggling to stay afloat, I'm not sure a merger of the two would prove very beneficial.

Could that mean the allison mated to the cummins... Could be a very bad combo for Ford.

I suppose it could. But, even with the merger, I'd be surprised if they started making "hybrid" vehicles with components from different manufacturers. I would almost think they'd still keep them two distinct product lines....but, what do I know? Haha...

But, you're right...that would be a pretty good combo...
