The Legend of Lee Iacocca

Lee Iacocca LEGEND! Chrysler should have a picture of him in every dealership.

Rest in Peace Mr. Iacocca. 7/2/2019 Godspeed sir, and thank you for all your accomplishments. We will never forget you and your wonderful cars!

Watched start to finish. Next you guys need to do the '90s speed wars with motorcycles.

Pulled over on the side of the interstate in an overheating W123 300TD right now. Need to let the engine cool down for 45 mins to an hour. This will do nicely.

Iacocca said it best about Chrysler in the late 70's. "The Dart and Valiant ran forever, and they should never have been dropped. Instead they were replaced by cars that often started to come apart after only a year or two."

Is anyone else starting to like The Roman's work ? I've watched all these since the Tale of The Dale...

Just found out he died so I figured I'd go back and watch this again

Easily one of the greatest minds in American automotive history. I kinda wonder what things would have been like if Henry Ford II wasn't a jealous, paranoid idiot, or if Iacocca had selected Lutz to take the reins at Chrysler. Eh, life is full of what-ifs and what-could've-beens... I think Lee did the best he could with what he had, barring the inevitable errors in judgement brought about by human nature. His was a brilliant mind that didn't see profit above people and still managed to satisfy both for the most part. I only wish more CEOs of major American companies actually gave a hoot about their employees like Iacocca did...

Immediately thought about this video after I heard the news. RIP Lee Iacocca

Roman this was honestly one of the best podcasty type of thing I have ever heard. Hats off to you good sir!

RIP Lee Iacocca, you will be missed.

Lee was a great man and I weep for today's Chrysler. I hope another great CEO comes forward to save the company.

So, the the K-Car is basically the automotive equivalent of the M4 Sherman.

These documentaries are fantastic, this one especially. Great job!

RIP Lee..! Your persistence paid off for Ford and Chrysler and millions of people around the world.

I can't believe how much Romans voice sounds just like Lees but with less echo.

You know, when I saw this was 50 minutes, I was slightly discouraged, but I’m glad I still hit play, because your writing and delivery had me hooked like a good book. This isn’t just a 50 minute video, it’s a 50 minute masterpiece... and that is timeless.

my dad knew Iacocca personally and taught his daughter how to drive manual

Rest in peace, Mr. Iacocca; your efforts helped to keep my Dad employed at Direct Connection in the early 80’s. Thank you RCR for the education- factual and entertaining.

RIP Lee from previous owner of 2 Mustangs 1 Chrysler MiniVan and 2 Chrysler convertibles and 1 Dodge 400 convertible. A Job well done.
