I honestly think it is a bad thing for EV1 customers and a good thing for The Planet customers. The Planet management had a horrible record of actually managing their business mostly due to their explosive growth, they even had an issue between management people and some of them left and formed a new company practically right next door.

EV1, on the other hand, is such a powerfully well managed company. Robert Marsh has been a businessman of all businessmen. He likes one-on-one talks with his own customers even though he's not required to talk to them or meet with them.

In the end, from what I hear, all the management staff will remain the same as well as their non-management staff. It's just that these two competitors are working under the same umbrella company.

This will of course lax competition a bit since these two companies were big rivals in the Texas area.
