Better that MOPAR should rest in peace, IMHO.
The thoughts of re-organization under Chapter 11 should have been done a few billion dollars ago. Maybe this way they (the auto mfg) can get rid of the 1300 or so members of the "job bank". It must be nice to set around all day watching TV, drinking coffee for $31.85 an hour plus benefits.

There is little, if any profit in small cars.
There is also little chance of survival in some of them also.

Back during the first go rounds of small cars, many Omnis, Horizons, and Geo Metros came through my shop. They like the Chevette had a low surviveability rate, and even at low impact speeds, the cars were usually totalled. In many cases the drivers were also.
