gm is doomed...they have never moved beyond the 70s.They hate change.Listen to the ceo's of gm over the last 30 yrs and they are a bunch of crusty old men, their mentality/attitude is stuck in 1965.Bob lutz who is head of product development thinks like gas is 25cents and climate change is a conspiracy.GM is a dinosaur that will die because it refuses to adapt.In the 70s jap car companys seized the opportunity of high oil prices by producing gas miser cars.It took american cars at least 5yrs to get with the program.In that time jap car makers got their foot in the door.Right now gas is at record prices and the japs have responded by making hybrids for the last 5 yrs or so...Meanwhile gm is promoting gas hogs and their hybrids are SUV's...Unbeleivable...So its no wonder toyota now is the no 1 car maker in the world.
