Re: Trolls and mischaracterizations

Don't get me wrong I love my Corvettes but I don't have a lot of hope for
GM. GM and Ford will reverse themselves when you see them gain back market
share. Not just a ½ point gain for a few months but 5-10 % sustained for 5
years.

It all started back in the 70's with the shit management.  When you put
staff people into line positions this type of thing will happen. You won't
see a bean counter or lawyer making decisions at Toyota or Honda.

My friend just retired from Ford after 30 years. One of the things he told
me about and I think he has been right is that the Auto Industry in
Detroit
has a real bad problem. Their attitude is always "don't tell us how to
make
cars, we invented them".

In Japan when you have a problem, you fix it. At GM when you have a
problem
you tell the customer to blow it out his ass, just like the 3800 engine
intake manifold problem. Or at Ford with the 4.6 liter intake problem.
