Good riddance - there is not enough market to justify supporting 3 American companies when the largest one of them is barely holding on to a 23% market share.

It was a waste to support Chrysler with the first round of funds back in December. The govt. is right (for once) in giving Chrysler the final boot.

In all of my friends and family, I don't know of one person who has ever liked Chrysler or bought their products. Ford? Yes. GM? Absolutely. Chrysler? No one I know would cry if they folded tomorrow.

The company has been on life support almost since the govt. bailed them out in the first place 30 years ago. With the excpetion of a brief stint in the early-mid 1990's (when our dear friend Bob Lutz worked there), they have always had lackluster product and sub-par quality.
