nissan is just itching to pair with anyone still i see.]]>Dec 14th 2007 11:38AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/12/14/nissan-and-chrysler-may-build-cars-and-trucks-together/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/12/14/nissan-and-chrysler-may-build-cars-and-trucks-together/Dec 14th 2007 11:50AMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/12/14/nissan-and-chrysler-may-build-cars-and-trucks-together/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/12/14/nissan-and-chrysler-may-build-cars-and-trucks-together/
It might make sense for Nissan to throw in the towel on the Titan/Armada/QX56. Looks like the sales are about 5K/3K/1K per month.

“Chrysler seeks access to Nissan’s small cars.”

That would be better than using some Chinese platform, for sure.


If I was Ghosn, I'd be wanting a 6.7L CTD and 68RFE for my Heavy Duty Titan. Instant cred' in the fullsize market.

Can we all just leave Autoblog alone on grammar? As long as the point of the story gets across, who really cares? If you want to read Pulitzer worthy stuff, go somewhere else.]]>Dec 14th 2007 3:08PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/12/14/nissan-and-chrysler-may-build-cars-and-trucks-together/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/12/14/nissan-and-chrysler-may-build-cars-and-trucks-together/Dec 14th 2007 12:34PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/12/14/nissan-and-chrysler-may-build-cars-and-trucks-together/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/12/14/nissan-and-chrysler-may-build-cars-and-trucks-together/Dec 14th 2007 1:09PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/12/14/nissan-and-chrysler-may-build-cars-and-trucks-together/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/12/14/nissan-and-chrysler-may-build-cars-and-trucks-together/when Renault did the Encore and the Alliance (who was Motor Trend Car of the Year in 1983), it was AMC not Chrysler. Chrysler however inherited of a Renault design when they buyed AMC in 1987, it became the Eagle Premier (and 1990-92 Dodge Monaco)]]>Dec 14th 2007 4:21PMhttp://www.autoblog.com/2007/12/14/nissan-and-chrysler-may-build-cars-and-trucks-together/http://www.autoblog.com/2007/12/14/nissan-and-chrysler-may-build-cars-and-trucks-together/>> This news comes as no surprise and produces little, if any, drama.

Both Chrysler and Nissan have in the past expressed an interest in seeking cooperation with other manufacturers to both improve and expand their respective products and market share. This is just one more sign of the times in the industry. All auto manufacturers are, or will, have to consider some type of collaboration with other companies, including their rivals, to remain competitive and survive.

Frankly, I'm not concerned about Chrysler losing it's edge or position as a maker large trucks. In fact, in view of the current geo-political situation, I would prefer to see Chrysler develop a program to produce small cars with Nissan than I would with Chery.
