COO Fritz Henderson is expected to be named as the interim CEO, and one can only hope that they get a Alan Mulally caliber leader to turn this ship around...if it can even be turned around.

They should replace the entire top executive management and design groups for both GM and Chrysler if you ask me. Rename the companies. Demolish their headquarters and build anew. 90% of their cars and trucks plain suck compared to the competition. I like driving responsive cars and don't like having to feel shamed into buying inferior, boring cars just because they are American-made. Don't let the door hit you, Dick.
