ork, <GM could be a bankruptcy within five years.> I think maybe they already are. Truck sales never picked up, even after that spike in orders/releases for truck parts in August. GM does not get it. Now before I get a bunch of boos, I think Ford is getting it. The plan to move five European vehicles to stateside production FAST is a good plan. Ford has a very serious leader. I have seen amazing changes there in the past 10 months, and there is no sign it is letting up. Alan Mulally gets it, and you better not tell him <no> because <that is not the way we do it in automotive>. You will be finding the door pretty quick, and that goes for the troops all the way down. Change or die. Contrast that to Bob <I ruined Home Depot> Nardelli. I don't think he gets it, and many Chrysler friends think the same. The bloom is long off that rose. I mean GM just announced a hybrid Escalade. And damn, it is ONLY $71,000 BUCKS. Think of all the money I can save gang-bangin in that ride at 20 city and 21 Highway! cadillac.com GT TH
