Re: What more can you ask for..
You do know that ford is the only 1 that did not take money from the government, right?
And they had this in the works since last year. |

Ford has been failing for years, it's no secret. |

They have lost money every year, for years.
It's like watching a snake eat an elephant, inch by inch. |

Rialto, CA | It would be okay, but they would have to use fiat money, since that's all we have here. |

I would love to say I lost $14.7 Billion. That would mean I had $14.7 Billion to begin with.  |

BTW, what's Toyota and some of the other Japanese automaker's excuse?

(and took money from Italian government and is owned by chrysler which took money from Our gov and is still failing after being double bailed out) right?
And Ford = Fun On Race Day (get it right already)
Fiat = Fix It Again Tony
If there were a merger of Ford and Fiat it would be Ford buying Fiat (or buying the top of the fiat empire Benz) |

Toyota may have pulled a loss for one year, GM and Ford and Chrysler have been doing it for years, and with a larger amount per year as well. |

Actually it was GM they found beside the road dead. They killed themselves like a fallen pop star. Very little talent, big fat heads and a huge fan base of googly idiots. |
