Well done Ford. Further proof that GM and Chrysler should have been allowed to die.

Ford has been building a quality product for 5 years running. They are profitable now because they got rid of the dead weight... Land Rover, Jag and AM (all garbage anyway if you ask me). Streamlined expenses, kept a tight rope on their strong finance arm and kept their focus on one thing, the Blue Oval. The Ford family knows how to pick a good leader too, Alan Mulally knows how to manage a big manufacturing biz. Good Job Ford. GM and it's bureaucratic, Good OL' Boyz Club bullshit take notice. I've always loved GM but it’s such a misguided, lost company with a lot of talented products but no direction. GM’s focus is being politically correct and not talent driven, if you know what I mean.
