Re: Did the public think of Imperial as Packard's replacement?

Packard sales exceeded Cadillac's in the 1930's. By 1950, Cadillac and Packard sales were about even. By 1956, Cadillac sales far exceeded Packard's. After 1956, neither Imperial or Lincoln's (pre-1970's) sales ever came close to Cadillac's. So while some former loyal Packard buyers might have switched to Lincoln, Imperial, or maybe even a high end Buick, it appears that Cadillac got the majority of them.
