From what Wagoner has done in the last few years it seems like he has done exactly what you are asking for. New Ideas and Concepts..merging international divisions....You know what they say about changing horses in the middle of the stream don't you?.. What more do you want?

Yes, outside the auto industry. Ford brought in the former CEO of Boeing. We have seen great changes in the companies products being offered but that is only a small part of the business. I want to see what thay will announce next month with respect to reducing debt by 500 billion (as required by govt. bail out), dealer network and brand consolidation.
Many people on this board think of GM only as a North American company and don't look at the billlions of dollars spent globally on repetitive BS. Vauxhaul, Opel and Holden also need to be consolidated in the new GM. Anywhere you go in the world, a Toyota Corolla is a Toyota Corolla. At GM, the european division has to justify it's existence by taking a Chevy platform and changing everything to make it look different and calling it something else and visa-versa. Total waste.
