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...
wish more people had your common sense and could see as clearly why Red Ink Rick must go. guess there's nothing like that first hand experience of investing cash and seeing it literally disappear due to incompetence. easy for some youngsters and casual bystanders to express confidence in someone so undeserving. different when you know better and can tell what true leadership brings.

a grocery store in my home town in NY foresaw the coming impact of a brand new Topps and Walmart Superstore. before these new operations finished construction, the old line family grocier had converted to a Save-A-Lot while retaining many long held traditions of service. they are prospering in light of the onslaught of well heeled competitors and their employees continue working and are able to support their families. that is good management and vision, something Wagoner surely doesn't possess.
