Okay! And now BACK to GM's woes here.....

I tend to agree with Greybeard's assessment on this. Once the so-called "Car Guys" turned the operation over to the "Bean Counters" around the early 1970s, in order to pacify the shareholders concerns about their SHORT TERM quarterly profits, often going the diversification route instead of reinvesting in their core product(a very "american" business mindset, ya know), it's been a steady downhill plummet towards mediocracy.

(at least, that's MY, and I think GB's, take on this whole debacle anyway)
