Default Ford-GM Merger?

For those of you who don't visit the 4.0 forum, I found this interesting and posted it there...

this should really be an OFF TOPIC post as it pertains to FoMoCo and not just to mustang 05+

Well, you could argue that it would make 05-07's collector's items if the current turmoil resulted in GeneralFord competing only with Toyota on models...

Sadly, something drastic has to happen here... Cannot continue as it is and have everyone surivive...

Either the unions have to get hurt, one of them has to go away, or GASP! a merger to compete with Diamler-Chrysler (which seems like an obsurd profanity unto itself)...

So, it seems a bit soon in the downward spiral, but hey, they did !@#$-can the new Goat faster than you can say - "ugly", so anything is possible...
