If there is a lesson to be learned from the history of Fiat, it is an optimistic one. Every dictatorship it has partnered with thus far has floundered within two decades, yielding to real democratic changes in governance (well, except for North Korea, but it's still early in the game). A new generation of Fiat owners will soon emerge in America, enjoying their road trips and daily commute, watching the country recover in the next twenty years from the most horrifying abuse of power, corruption and graft since the creation of Federal Reserve. Check the tire pressure – the ride is bound to get bumpy.
