I have discussed GM's challenges in past posts. For awhile, it looked like GM might get it "in gear" when Kirk Kerkorian got involved. His presence got my attention, despite GM's clear "capital pig" characteristics.
Now we wonder if we need GM. My vote is yes. My parents purchased this GM product - a 1968 GTO, which still thrills me. Although some might not like it, I still think it's uniquely an American work and indicative of the kind of contribution the American spirit can make to the design of cars.
