| Ford is actually starting to incorporate some nice tech into their new lines. I especially like the one where the car sends you an email or text when the check engine light goes on detailing to you whats wrong with it. How cool is that? |

I understand what you are saying Rude. I'm just trying to find SOMETHING positive out there to hang my hat on. Ford did not take any bailout money, and you cant fault them for taking c4c money when it was made available for any and everybody. |

No C4C = No Profit or at least a very small one! The forth quarter results without any government interference will give a much more accurate picture. Maybe not perfect, but at least more accurate. |

Rude, I agree. As you have disclosed so well in the past,what is espoused as Free Trade is not Fair Trade.
Tariffs, quotas, balanced agreements will only hurt the Elite. Working class America already has calluses in the asses. |
