Actually, I think getting rid of the engineering staff is a brilliant move. If Henry Ford had done that after the Model T was designed, Ford Motor Co. would still be a highly profitable company producing just one perfectly good, truly retro-looking car instead of trying to compete in a global market place with a whole bunch of different vehicles that need constant updating. FoMoCo would have saved BILLIONS of dollars over the years and undoubtedly be the undisputed king of the automotive world!

Well I was close. I am familiar with Carver as I own 3 of them.

Very true... but I am finding the GM/Chrysler merger talks much more distressing.
Maybe to the point of obsessing... [8D]

Checkout the latest issue of Mopar Collector's Guide, page 51 for more information on Tesla and other electric cars from GM....(Maybe a bit dated in regards to Tesla, all things considered)
