You call that a company that knows how to manage themselves properly? Allow me to answer that for you... Absolutely not! Last time I checked GM is the only North American automaker that even though their sales for the month of September dropped by about 16% was the only automaker who did well in the previous month even when compared to the import competition (Toyota and Honda). Ford posted a monthly sales loss of like about 35%. Would you call that good management? Motor Trend stated on their forum that GM sales were surprisingly good for the month of Sept, and although all automakers are facing a downturn with the condition the economy is in, you have to agree that GM did well last month. Anyway, getting back to Ford... We haven't seen not 1 HOT PRODUCT FROM FORD BESIDES THE LINCOLN MKX AND MKS AND EVEN THAT'S STARTING TO BECOME MEANINGLESS. GM on the other hand has a whole arsenal of cars that are on the road and selling very well and there's only more to come so as I was saying before, Ford is not doing better than GM. All the proof is out there and you are obviously free to take a look at them whenever you like.
Fiesta-Aveo
Euro Focus-Cobalt/Cruze
Mondeo-Malibu
Kuga-Equinox

Not one of GM's offerings is as good as what Ford is bringing out 1 year from now. Not one. The Malibu is the only one that even comes close.
I have hated Ford ever since I drove my father's Granada, but Mullaley is kicking ass like Wagoner never could and never will.
GM is a glommy mess of a company.
