The points about leadership wrt to the SUVs is good. It's the whole tone of the article leading talking about the G6 as evidence of the company's ills. I've always said that they should have invested more in cars instead of in the whole car/truck SUV market "in case gas prices go high". But I was not in an empowered position. As for the vans, it's about investment and payoff, leveraging what you have versus not selling any minivan at all until you develop a whole new platform. This may have something to do with portfolio prioritization mentioned above, or it may just be typical American corporate short term thinking. I don't know, but whatever the case, it's not unique to the management there.
