Post a CommentI'm hoping to do my own Ford buyout and get some Ford stock this month.
Ford seems to be a stronger business than GM right now! Bigger is defintiely NOT necessarily better in business.
We're Chevy people, but I'd hate to see Ford go under.
Ford has definitely been around for a while!
Great info on Ford buyouts, popular Ford models, 2010 Ford cars - and particularly the 2010 Ford Focus!
They are doing better than GM is doing!
