My lack of imagination is showing again:
While I agree that Jeep has a "somewhat" unique product that "might" make a good fit with M-B's current offerings....why?
Just a week or two ago an article here at AutoBlog said that, what was it? 40% or 60% of M-B products are now sold with AWD. I thought that number sounded high, until I remembered all the SUVs and crossovers now being sold by Mercedes. The only thing that Jeep gives to M-B...in my mind, is cheap Four Wheel Drive. The kind of cheap that doesn't bother you when you use it to tow. (I've never seen anyone tow anything with a new(ish) M-B of any kind.
I do agree with another poster, who would want Chrysler WITHOUT Jeep? They are just another okay car company....much like Ford U.S. would be, without trucks and SUVs.
