" From: Frank Swygert <farna@xxxxxxx> " " What a subject line for an AMC/Rambler mail list! " " [] " " Yeah, DCX was what Chrysler intended to do with AMC -- just a buy-out. " It was more like when Renault took over AMC and treated the AMC guys " like they didn't know what they were doing -- why else would they be in " the mess they were in? Wouldn't listen when they were told the Alliance " needed at least an optional larger engine (than the 1.4L... okay for a " five speed or econo auto, but the auto really needed more power to be a " good only car!) and a few other things. They finally started listening " a little when the Premier came out, but then they caved to political " pressure at home and sold out, right when they were best poised to " (most likely) turn things around! the renault president was the only one pushing amc, so when he was assassinated by north african terrorists the rest of the board wasted no time shaking amc's dust from their boots. whether he was visionary or not, his vision wasn't shared. ________________________________________________________________________ Andrew Hay the genius nature internet rambler is to see what all have seen adh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx and think what none thought _______________________________________________ Amc-list mailing list Amc-list@xxxxxxxxxxxx http://splatter.wps.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/amc-list
