good going ford you did it without OBAMA though I think OBAMA wants all ford dead for not bowing to his will. I will only by fords for ever now. I just bought a f150 and next spring I will be taking delivery on my Stang I wanted a Camaro but it wont be under obamas name so fuck Chrysler and GM FORD get my money from now on its really to bad I was buying a new Chrysler every couple of years NOT anymore

do the tax payers get their money back? or was ford not part of the car bailout.

The profit might also come as a result of not having to pay the thousands fired.

I think its great that Government Motors and Chrysler took bail out's. We are starting to get a lot of former GM, Chrysler customers on are sales floor at the Ford Dealer I work at. Thanks GM! Like a rock HAHAHAHA!

[fox9ninja]

maybe that's how they made the billion dollar profit.

[Juntahh]

make cars to sit on lots cause people have no money to buy them and make new models every year, then bail them out with tax payer money, rinse repeat

durka fucking durka

blows me away to see workers in a factory wearing shorts and no safetyshoes or gear.

too bad so many Americans would never dream of buying an American car...

[DrRobotron]

i believe ford was the only car company not part of the bail out... so good ford.

[badmudda]

no, kinda ironic how the only automaker who didnt need a bailout, is the only one making a profit.
