Interesting first post.

I got a visual where the "top 10" executives are strutting around the office wearing a big ribbon that says "I'm in the Top 10!" like a badge of popularity. What worries me about an executive saying anything is they're all talk with very little actual knowledge of the vehicle development. They want the car to be 2600-2700 pounds and 200 HP, but they can't promise it, only fire people when it doesn't happen.

Time will tell!
