It's always darkest before the dawn...

...I hope.

 

they stated quite categorically that they didn't expect to return to profit until 2009.

I hope that the restructure goes well, and that Ford come out of the other side.

 

There's always light at the end of the tunnel.

Apparently I'm "cliche boy" today.

 

+1, we need to give it some time, people seem like its all over..gloom and doom is all you hear...besides its really only here in the US where Ford is red, are they not making a profit in Europe?

 

Well its like needing lots of dental work. Get it over with, its not getting any better. I'm more agressive in thinking then Ford is, I say kill the ranger and Freestar completely. Get some of these **** products out faster, such as what should be the minivan/freestyle replacement. Lets go! Why it takes 6 years to develop something on an existing platform is beyond me-put a bigger box over a freestyle and kick it into play! Keep and develop only the Duratec and Modular motors(until the Hurriboss of course) and kill the rest. Dump Jag and Range Rover. Slash slash slash. Bring in a euro sub B-class compact, diesel F150s, S-197 hot rods for L/M, friggin bring over an aussie sedan for Lincoln, ect ect, lets go!
