Just go out of business already.....

[StangerBanger96]

Whether or not you think it's good, it would be VERY BAD for any big auto company to go out of business. GM, Ford, Dodge, Honda, Toyota, Subaru, anything....that would have a very dramatic impact on the world economy.

What slowvo didn't mention is that they are going through restructuring as well has having to pay for pensions and other worker buyouts. I can see sales of trucks and SUVs, which have been one of Ford's main items, picking up in the next couple of months if gas and fuel prices stay lower.

Is this just Ford cars and trucks or all of the other makes included Lincoln, Mercury, Jaguar..etc.......?

Pretty sure it would be the Ford Motor Co., which would include everything. I could be wrong though.

Yeah the economy would drasticly go up since honda, toyota, etc... would take over there empty plants and produce a better product which would create a higher demand for their superior product.

Yeah I know, but you know I have to give you crap for them callmekthxbaihun

If it wasnt for the PAG group, ford would be even more in the red.

back to the original subject, i think a parts supplier made a massive batch of bad parts, i know of other company's having massive balljoint/tierod recalls lately also

There is a lot of money involved here and if the replacement parts are cheaper and the customers won't shit bricks at having to foot the bill, like they would if they had to pay for replacement parts for their import. Then why shell out cash you don't have.
