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

Agreed. What's the point?
I can see keeping Jeep, and selling HUMMER, but having both Dodge AND Chevy around is pointless. It will just mean even more divisions for a company that should be working on reducing the number of divisions.
The Caliber and PT Cruiser are unnecessary with the HHR.
The Avenger and Sebring are unnecessary with the Malibu/Aura/G6.
They should use the LY platform for the STS and Lucerne, and the minivan platform, as another poster said.
