Awesome guest. Would love to hear Aanders Gustoffson and Bob Lutz go one on one. AG made several bold statements and hats off to him….but when I hear of Volvo I think of Saab. Cost cutting in any business is important. Too bad the feds can’t take a lesson from Volvo. I’ve always been a GM person….and NOT an electric automotive wannabe driver….although Tesla can smoke almost anything on the planet. WTG Musk. Then there’s the reduction of broadcasting that proved to be beneficial for sales. We see where the automotive market is heading. Many like me are just not readily wanting to make that move….yet.
