Ford Tells The US, "No Thank you..."

The Model T, the Rouge Plant, and now...

Henry defined the auto industry - his idea to manufacture a product that his employees can afford to buy, was pure genius. And the employment of ex-cons to secure his family, turned into the downfall of his corporate legacy - maybe.

The last remaining American hope in the auto industry is Ford Motor Company - can it be a result of the Ford family beginning to buy back stock years ago?

Family owned.

Perhaps all the money the family saved with the Lions- will come in handy.

Today, Bush ok's a bail out for GM and Chrysler - and Ford said no thanks.

Defiant Ford.
Struggling Ford.

Brilliant Ford.

GM and Chrysler are pretty much gone - GM and Chrysler must sell their corporate jets.

Another requirement of the 3 year loan is to secure concessions from the unions - Ford will piggy-back those concessions.

The next 6 months are going to be very interesting.

Ford's next ad campaign should capitalize on this move - the defiant, remaining American automotive dream.

And this just after the F-150 was named the 2009 Truck of the Year - remember last year it was the Toyota Tundra.
