Some of this is beyond the direct control of the company anyway and is dependent on the economy improving and gasoline prices staying reasonable.

Mustangcat just doesn't want you to cast doubt on the situation if you can't tell by his posts. So don't bother trying to bring any realism into the picture here.

Regarding quality Ford has certainly improved. Are they better than Honda for instance? I don't know. What does jdpower have to say about it?
Um what? Cast doubt on the situation?
Kiddo, Ford being the only American Auto company to survive with Chapter 11 bankruptcy is a big deal. Look at the stock figures via the New York Stock Exchange if you think I'm blowing smoke up your ass.

General Motors - GMQGM - $0.89
FoMoCo - F - $6.40

Ford's stock is worth 6x+ that of General Motors, if that doesn't show how good they're doing in light of the recession, than nothing will.
