And bull****.

I just heard that Ford Motor Company is purchasing up to 40% of all
shares of Honda. This is not official yet, but it is in the works.

No matter how bad it gets, Ford Motor will not fail or disappear. Ford
is safe as long as the U.S. Treasury can issue loan guarantees, but it
probably won't get that bad.


they arent buying anything.

Ford owns a third of Toyota and Masda, all of Volvo and Jag and
others in smaller amounts so I would not be suprised if they
tried to buy Honda; however I just did a five day news search
on Google and did not see anything about it.

Skunkman is obviously just trolling. Pay no attention to him.

Sure..... just a ploy to get everyone to buy your worthless FORD stocks!

manufacturing international) plant in fremont, ca. thats where they
make tacomas and pontiac vibes.

theyre in a joint venture with GM, but thats about it. GM needs all the
help they can get. never shoulda scrapped the GEO conglomeration with
suzuki, toyota, and isuzu products.

Confirming what most of you are saying, Ford owns a third of Mazda, and
also bought Land Rover off of BMW. But no, they don't own any of Toyota
and arn't buying into of Honda.

That one third interest in Toyota is either a miss read by me or
sloppy reporting. The story I read said ford had a 33.4% in toyota,
since I can't find it today I'll have to accept it as a miss read
on my part.
The following is from Hoovers this morning:
Ford owns: 33% Masda, all of Hertz, Volvo, Jaguar and BMW's Land Rover
Suv
GM owns: Saab,Opel,Vauxhall and has interests in Subaru, Suzuki, Fiat
and Daevoo
