Personally I don't think it would happen. Although Mercedes and Chryslers are starting to share more and more parts out of economic necessity, there are some boundaries I don't think they'll cross. It's okay to share transmissions or even engines on some of the lower-priced vehicles, but the Mayback is supposed to be the ultimate prestige car, and it simply wouldn't do for its "heart" to show up in pedestrian Dodge products.
