The new Camaro is another example... Lutz and Rick, stall stall, dither dither, offer goofy trucks as pony car replacements... and when the new Mustang takes off like a rocket they pick some lint out of their navels and say... "Time to play catch up"
But even at catch up they suck... When this first happened in mid 1964... Chevy got a Mustang beater on the road in
29 months... How long has taken Rick and Co. to recognize their mistake on the Camaro and get a car on the road?
Almost 5 freaking years!...
How long did has it taken Chrysler to get a challenger back in the showrooms?
Just over 2 years...
They started AFTER GM committed to the new Camaro and they FINISHED first...
Rick, if your corporate strategy is to just play catchup all of the time...
Could you at least be good at it!
BTW Rick IS NOT CHEAP... he has collected over $100Million... Yes MILLION... during his tenure at GM...
