I believe Lutz was arguing Mr. Flat's view on GM promoting excessive fuel usage. Obviously, the $1.99 per gallon rebate concept was directed toward sales. Personally, I thought it was a pretty clever approach.

Market share is something else. I agree with you that GM/Ford have tanked in losing share. There are many reasons. One not to be dismissed is the cost of labor. Nor should top level management decision making over the years be ignored.
