I don't know if Nance deserves all the bad press he gets as he did have a vision and did embark on some good things. Maybe too much too soon, but all the articles point to the fact things were bad and something had to be done by the time he arrived.

At the same time, I also think he surrounded himself with people giving some less than spectacular advice and he acted upon it. I will never understand the move--but then I wasn't there.

As to whether the proposed cars would have sold, anyone's guess. The quality problems and recession hurt but there was still the name.
