Avoiding negative press is key to attaining positive market perception - something which Ford is clearly lacking these days. The press have not, for example, gone looking for interview snippets for how they can spin a negative story this time around.

This was a win Ford Marketting. Get the guys in Detroit to do something similar, and the Australian Press Hounds will work for you and not against you.

Yeah I think you've nailed it, there's nothing much else to take away from the announcement. There's nothing solid enough provided by any insider to think past 2016.
