4. Chrysler is being managed by FIAT who is gradually buying in

The UAW is the primary stockholder with the US and Canadian governments with small percentages. FIAT gets to buy in as acheives certain goals.

The new management is arguably the best in the car industry as opposed to the fraud that was Daimler-Chrysler and the incompetence of Nardelli.
