Chrysler and Fiat's Latest Tiff: Not Unexpected, Not Good

<<<most of you dont know a thing! Chrysler is the best selling company in Canada 1st time ever. Also their market share has risen from 9.4 in 2008 to 11.9 in 2009! Chrysler is the only American car company left on the planet! They have 90 % of their sales, employees, and parts purchased right here in the USA ! Get off your high horse Hondas and support your American workers, and industry! Like Toyota is going to build tanks if the US goes to war! Stop bashing, and start supporting! Belly-achers!

Time to put down the kool aide and walk away, Antonio. Here's a dose of reality. The ten best selling cars in Canada? Here's a list. Note the absence of Chrysler models.

Honda Civic
Toyota Corolla
Mazda 3
Toyota Yaris
Chevy Cobalt
Hyundai Accent
Pontiac G5
Toyota Camry
Nissan Versa
Ford Focus

As for their being the "only" US automaker? LOL. All that means is that they are the most dependent on the US market. Which means they are in more trouble than the others.
And there is no way they source 90% from the US. I dare you to post any data which would support that.
In fact, they don't produce anywhere near 90% of their vehicles in the US. The Charger? Not US built. The 300? Not US built. The PT Cruiser? Mexico. The new Challenger? Imported. The Magnum (are they still making those?)? Imported. All the minivans? Not in the US. Even the Hemi is buit in Mexico.
Once they drop the losing line of midsized cars (which no one can even name) they will be in the position of not building ANY cars (trucks only) in the USA.
How's that for All American?
