which plays dreadfully in the press but the bean counters absolutely
love that the company made a high profit percentage by doing less,
selling less and expending less resources...(again, a real mind game)
Some days, you just wish they'd bind and gag the accountants and just
take a chance on good hunches with better product decisions...
The worst part of Ford profitability plan is that it shuts out dealers from
making a lot more sales and getting more vehicles to service...
