Quite aware of what a merger is, thank you. I also know that every time Chrysler was acquired/merged by Daimler, Cerberus, Fiat, the man in the moon, it was because Chrysler's continued existence depended on it. Is this even a merger of 'equals'? Equally distressed or flush with cash?

There is never a merger of equals. The one that holds the most cash holds all the cards on the table.
