Did you read it? Iacocca might agree with you, to a certain extent. |

I found it a tad hypocritical that he pisses and moans about Bob Eaton selling out Chrysler back in the late 90's, when he personally chose him over a higher qualified and more loyal Bob Lutz. Other than not, I'm taking a wait-and-see on his book... |

Mcp001- You may be right, however, I believe at one time Iacocca admitted that the biggest mistake he ever made was to put Eaton at the head of Chrysler instead of Lutz. He knows it was a mistake and I believe he still kicks himself over it. Just an aside. This might be a fun read. Might not have much real meat, but maybe still fun. |

I was reading some of the reviews earlier, and it seems that this wasn't the only thing that he has waffled on. |

Looking at the pic of him on the cover, he is either constipated or needs to give up cigar smoking. |

Where have all the leaders gone? In school, church, society as a whole we are conditioned/taught to follow someone else. What if there is no one left to follow? What shall we do? Could we think for ourselves? |
