Fiat Chrysler Automobiles will invest $1 billion to retool and modernize two plants in the U.S. Midwest, including one that would be able to make the Ram heavy-duty pickup truck currently produced in Mexico, it said on Sunday.
The automaker said the investment would create more than 2,000 production-related jobs. The company also said it planned to add three new Jeep models, including a pickup truck, to its product lineup and make them in the United States.
The announcement comes as U.S. President-elect Donald Trump has threatened to slap large tariffs on vehicles imported into the United States from Mexico.
Trump, a Republican, has attacked Ford Motor Co and more recently General Motors Co and Toyota Motor Corp for building cars in Mexico.

That fuelled speculation that the new administration may loosen fuel-economy rules, which would benefit makers of conventional engines. Gains by the U.S. dollar since the election are also positive for Fiat, Mr. Marchionne said. Trump a
Here we go...we can all choke to death on exhaust fumes when a climate denier is in charge of an agency that is supposed to protect the environment. Yeah keep polishing the turd folks.

And Obama had 8 years to turn this ship around. Instead, he put the American worker in the poorhouse and on food stamps. He also showed his lack of regard for business owners by suggesting that "someone else made that happen".
America was tested this election, and the grade is in. America gets an A+, and their good paying jobs back.
Mr. Steal your pension and load you with debt Romney tried to say Fiat-Chrysler was going to move to China during the 2012 campaign. This is the finalized version of the Corp. denying that Claim. Nutty Don had nothing to do with it.
If you want to claim this you also need to claim Nutty Don is responsible for raising gas costs as well as the assignation in Mexico.
