The original reo went bankrupt in 1967 and after series of mergers ended up as part of the truck company diamond reo. Diamond reo then had difficulties and stopped production in 1995. This reo is wholly unrelated, except the guy who started it bought the trademark.

I still own a Diamond Rio Volt SP250 MP3-playing portable CD player. How does that fit into this non-timeline? (I bought it in 2001 if that matters.)
