Ford's new CEO
I searched a bit, to see if someone posted this, but i have found a few relevant articles here!
Fords new ceo
This may tell you something, I own a ford, and i like some of them.. But this struck me just right!
This amongst the rumors of the GM/FORD partnership possibility, and the losses chrysler posted... LET alone the dwindling crap that is ford's stock They arent in good here, and at least the new CEO has the balls to admit it!
Everyone can check it out at Leftlane News - Car News For Enthusiasts
I guess the ford + gm thing puts an end to the domestic rivalry Whats next, a chevy mustang? Lincoln Escalade? This is wild!
Im not a balls in toyota fan, i like some of what they make, and that some predominantly is the more expensive lineup, i cant lie. I dont give a shit for camrys and the like, but i suppose if they provide a good product, and people buy it regardless, things like this will happen!
Im sure some will think i posted this as a toyota nuthugger, but if you would please look in the ford forum, i am looking at new mustangs and such!
Hopefully not a repost!
take care!

Fords new ceo

New Ford CEO drives a Lexus
Ford's new CEO Alan Mulally drives a Lexus LS 430, and he says he made the purchase because "it's the finest car in the world." Detroit Free Press columnist Tom Walsh says the fact alone "tells us a lot about Alan Mulally." Mulally, according to Walsh, is a realist who "knows Lexus cars are better than anything currently in Ford's lineup, and he doesn't care if Ford employees or the media hear him say it out loud."

Toyota plotting to overtake GM as largest automaker
Toyota is planning to increase its worldwide production by 40 percent and U.S. production by 20 percent, according to Japanese newspaper Nihon Keizai. The move would put North American output at 1.84 million vehicles, thanks to new plants in Texas and Canada. Toyota expects to meet these goals by 2008, the newspaper said. During the same period, General Motors and Ford are expected to either reduce or not change the number of vehicles they produce.

I found this in a USA Today article:
And while Detroiters may not love Mulally's choice of cars (Chairman Bill Ford joked that Mulally's Lexus was being keyed as he was being named CEO), others think he should resist switching to a Ford, which he promised that he'd do.
