That doesn't include the BILLIONS that Chrysler bled from Daimler in losses during the time it was owned by Daimler.

At one point, Daimler's Chrysler division was losing Billions per QUARTER. Really think about how much that is - we throw around billion so easily these days, but it is a thousand millions. And a quarter is only three months. It's mind-blowing how bad Chrysler was for Daimler.

Hopefully by getting rid of that dog, Daimler can focus again on building quality cars. For whatever reason, maybe coincidence, the crappiest, lowest quality, least reliable Mercedes cars were built during the "DaimlerChrysler" era. Hopefully that era is now over.
