The only thing I want to hear out of Bob Liar Lutz is, "I resign". By any measures the Malibu is a sales failure and who's going to buy a $40,000 unproven electric plug-in!? Lutz should be kicked to the curb along with Wagoneer. Until that happens GM will continue to slide towards bankruptcy. Only GM would pay their CEO $16m even though since he took over the stock is down 75%.
