I am a Ford lover. Those who know me know that I will argue why there next car should be a Ford. I have owned 3 vehicle in my life, all Fords. I like to think I even had some influence on Sean seeing the light after he bought a Bowtie (GM is not bad though) but I digress. Over the past couple of years we have seen the "Big 3" struggle. Sean and I seem to talk a lot about this. Now when we talk we seem to bring up the brand I have such a deep love for... Ford. We talk about how there line-up is great and how they seem to have turn a corner. They have accepted no federal money and sem to be gaining on the competition and in some cases surpassing them. Sean then mentioned Alan Mullay and what a great job he has done to turn the company around. I read this article on him and I must say I was totally impressed with him. To see someone come in and bring in such a simple concept of openess and honesty this day in age is refreshing. When was the last time you went into a meeting and told your boss something was wrong with a project and made them happy?! Those at Ford can say that. This article is a little long but totally worth the read. Maybe we should nominate Mr. Mullaly for president of the USA the next time around!! Read this article and you will know why I think this man is awesome.

Guys like Mulally are too smart to want to be President

Great article though - he has done a hell of a job

We have 2 Fords now and someday I'd love to add a Bronco to the stable for offroading purposes. I'm just afraid the wife would kill me

No, what you are really afraid of is she would drive that car better than you as well.

Yes, I am a FORD guy. There, it's out in the open. Now, everyone knows.
