Fiat owns you!!

Chrysler LLC filed for bankruptcy protection Thursday and will form an alliance with the Italian carmaker Fiat Group SpA in an effort to revive the nation's ailing third-largest automaker.

This should be an interesting template/precedent of what can be expected from an automotive bankruptcy...Though I am a little skeptical of the "surgical bankruptcy” claim that it could be completed in 30 to 60 days. Especially since United took 3 years to resolve and Delphi is under Chapter 11 (since 2005)...

I do want to read up more of the holdout group of creditors wouldn’t budge on proposals to reduce Chrysler’s secured debt. What were the proposed terms?

Obviously, you have never owned/driven/maintained either of these car marques.
