Funny how much MB tech Chrysler obtained...
This is a great reason why I'd never buy a Chrysler vehicle. They just piece together old parts from Mercedes!

This is their key fob:


Look familiar? It gets better - I can't find a pic, but according to numerous Chrysler owners, if you peel off the Chrysler logo slapped on the back of the fob, here is a Mercedes logo etched into the plastic.

Or how about this dash button panel?

If you think thats funny - try looking at the engine bay of a Jeep/Chrysler CRD or a Chrysler Crossfire.
