Well, I think Ford only has *ONE* good car and that's the Focus ZX3. Why is it so good? Cuz I'm a rally fan and the ZX3 is the Rally car =) hehehe that's the only reason...plus it's what I took my drivers ed in. All other ford cars are ICK!

By "damage", I assume you mean bringing new ideas, better branding, better quality, and record profits to an old-fashioned company, all while encouraging the design and production of cars people might actually want to buy for any reason OTHER than that they're made in America?

IMHO, before Nasser, Ford had gotten by for too long by being slightly better than GM (nothing to brag about there), and slightly cheaper than Chrysler. Nasser was an innovator who turned Ford into a legitimate competitor on the world stage; he was sacked for having the bad luck to be CEO during a) the first major economic downturn in 8 years, and b) the Firestone debacle. I have little faith in a new CEO whose only obvious qualification is his family tree.
