Fiat and Chrysler announced plans Saturday to build three new Jeep models in China for that market, the biggest for the vehicles outside the United States, as they attempt to boost sales in a country where they lag behind their competitors.

Last year China sold something like 440 billion dollars worth of goods to America.
We are completely selling out our own manufacturing.
Totally.

I’ll look into that, thanks.
A 67? An F-Head 134 or one of those Dauntless V6s? Either is good in my book.

Well, I’m not buying Chrysler products as a result of this.
You are in the neighborhood I bet. I finally had an MRI and the quacks see some cartilage damage. I see a specialist in early May. Got to love that new 0-care with the delays.
