[QUOTE="EddieS'04, post: 1037352, member: 61136"] Ford took no gov $$. Ford might be in some trouble, but not enough to merger IMO. Ford started changing how they made so many different parts world wide. They consolodated and lowered the amount of diferent parts. They started this almost 20yrs., before the auto industry got in trouble. The simplest example is. Ford lowerd there steering wheels world wide from almost 200 worldwide styles to 20. There are many other parts that were engineered into design, worldwide. This was many years before bail out. All the other manufactors didnot do anything and went into the hole. Coming from a long time 69yr old Ford guy. If Ford compltely mergers with anyone, I will be suprised. I do expect to see some more engineering joint projects.. [/QUOTE]
