So you know for a fact that who ever would have replaced him 5 years ago would have saved GM?? Or that the company would have been in any better shape than it is now, your not there in his office day to day seeing everything that he has to deal with, im not defending him cause im not there so i dont know 100% that he isnt doin his best, for all you know he may have even helped GM stay around a bit longer till all there new contracts kick in that are supposed to save the company tens of billions

Isn't Ricky a beancounter by training? And he couldn't foresee this. I swear, sometimes it seems American corporations are run by apes.

I was shocked by that number too. Every GM shareholder should also be shocked into doing something about the way GM is being run at the moment....

Re: Wagoner May Say GM Lost $2 Billion on Leases for SUVs

Lots of us on this forum are share holders, at the next shareholders meeting we should all demand that Ricky go away. As to who to put in charge, I don't know lets take Mulley from ford or put Lutz in there, or better yet parrots can talk, we could all teach a parrot to to talk to the media and make the parrot our CEO.
