to believe everything you read on the web, is the same as believing everything.

Check the source and critically think at how reliable that source is.

I am shocked at how many "Jeep moving to China" threads were started in the last week or two. It is sad how easily people believe things, and the sources they were citing were not even backing up what they were believing. Muckraking.

Hmmm...Bloomberg is a pretty reliable source...Jeep to build all model lines in China?

I personally don't believe either until I see more details from Chrysler or their parent company.

You might want to reconsider how critical you are of someone elses post considering the info appears to come from reliable sources.

From that article: The additional capacity would likely only augment Jeep's US output, not replace it.

Agree - was not addressing that piece...just your comments about reliable sources. I think we both agree overall. Time to move on.

Marchionne gives an interview that ignites a firestorm, then writes a blog article denying the whole thing.

Sounds to me like Marchionne is talking out of both sides of his mouth.
