My concern with Fiat taking over Chrysler and Jeep is that this is a company that left the U.S. market entirely about 25 years ago because they couldn't come close to competing on quality. In other words their cars were crap and shot full of rust in less than three years.
I think electric and hybrid vehicles have their place but the folks running the govt and the folks who run the folks who run the govt don't grasp the concept that what works okay in heavy traffic for the west coast and northeast Boston-NY-DC corridor doesn't work for the rest of us.
