  1. But considering that this man hates everything that its not made by the british I got to say that the fiesta will be a nice little car for Ford here in the US
  2. Ford marketing people should look at the first gen SHO to hear how SHO its pronounced what the hell its a SHO its S.H.O http://jalopnik.com/340996/the-1989-taurus...a-fortunate-few
  3. killing the current E van its a mistake thats a proven workhorse, a lot of people I know use them for work and they dont die and are proven
  4. ^hahaahahaha water almost came out of my nose hahaha
  5. If the swedish union reads this I bet there is no way in hell Geely will get Volvo, as much as some here say Volvo needs to go I think Volvo can have a future with Ford , IMO some of Volvos productions should be moved to current Ford platform plants so the C30 and Focus could be build in the same plant
  6. The rear looks pretty good a photochop of the MKR front with the Sentinel Rear and we could have a pretty nice flagship here
  7. The same happened when the Challenger was introduced it outsold the Mustang for one or two months but then everything went back to normal and I expect the same for the Chamaro
  8. ohh please give it to Mercury here in the states damn
  9. Today I took my uncle to see some cars and he wanted a Rav4, we went and looked around, checked prices and then I told him lets go to the Ford dealer, he said ok, when we arrived he started looking at the Escapes but he fell in love with a black Sport Track 09. The salesman gave the price and 3 hrs later the truck its in my uncles driveway lol. Have to Upload some photos later
  10. As I keep reading GM will not come out with a clean debt, by the time the new GM comes out they will be close to Ford at the debt level so I think Ford will not be at a great disadvantage

  12. this one its much better :happy feet:
  13. I thought that the Flex,MKT and coming explorer are on D4
  14. ^ the thing is if CD3 can handle the Ecoboost power because D3 had to be reinforced and converted to D4 so it could handle the Ecoboost
  15. just look who came back from the dead everyone that keeps thinking that GM will come out debt clean its crazy GM will come out with about 20 billion in debt
  16. GM will come out of BK but that doesnt mean that all the debt will magically dissapear, GM will come out with close to 20 billion in debt and right now thats Ford Automotive debt, in Ford financial statements the Total company debt its at about 150 billion but 130 billion are from FoMoCo credit with all the loans so Fords true debt its 20 something billion and Im betting my pants that in the coming months they might do a stock for debt exchange and could wipe about 10 billion out of the debt so by the time GM and Chrysler come out of the woods Ford will be leaner and in a roll
  17. It might be showed in the Explorer but I got the feeling that it might hit the street first on a fiesta or focus RS
  18. By that time I hope the Mr Fusion and the Flux capacitor are ready for production :happy feet:
  19. If Ford Motor Co. wants to update an old slogan, it might consider "Capitalism is job one" -- because its outlook today, far brighter than that of General Motors and Chrysler, speaks volumes about the free market's virtues and government control's perils. Ford essentially mortgaged nearly everything it owned in late 2006 to raise $23.6 billion in capital markets. That money financed a product-line overhaul that's now filling showrooms with new models that can compete with Japanese and Korean models' quality and fuel efficiency. Ford still hasn't taken a dime of government money and now has rising U.S. market share, a stock price that has tripled in less than two months, the No. 2 rank in U.S. sales for April (beating Toyota) and plans for a $2 billion stock offering. That's all inconceivable for GM and Chrysler, which took federal bailouts that enabled the government, not stockholders, to control them. And now, GM likely is just days away from joining Chrysler in bankruptcy reorganization. Ford's future hardly is secure. It still has to repay creditors without government help, after all. But on Wall Street and on dealer lots, investors and auto buyers are rewarding Ford for the risk it took in obtaining private, free-market financing and relying on private management. That's how capitalism ought to work. Ford is proving it does. http://www.pittsburghlive.com/x/pittsburgh...n/s_625865.html
