GM Inside News Forum - View Single Post - GM + Chrysler: What it may look like post-merger

It's simply impossible to merge two companies selling vehicles in the same segments.

There'd be virtually nothing from Chrysler that could fold into GM's lineup. The Hummer H3 could dovetail nicely into the Jeep lineup. GM sure could use a minivan; and the Journey is an interesting product. Everything else is overlap, and every Chrysler product is inferior to GM's in most respects.

I just can't see any such scheme being remotely feasible. Something tells me such an endeavour would spell the end of both companies.
