And so people are aware, Ford are happy selling 200 odd Focus a month cause they are profitable. Not sure Jeep would be in the same boat. You'd have to imagine they are doing pretty heavy discounting just trying to get cars out the door. Worked well for Holden

On the contrary, the tooling/R&D costs involved in the current Grand Cherokee would have to be fairly well taken care of by now - the car is probably a profit machine. Not that they're selling huge volumes, sure.
I think any business can turn around if the weak points are addressed and dealt with in a good manner and at this stage I have the feeling Jeep will come through this.
