If I recall, ford sold more F150s than honda sold of all models combined...or something crazy like that. I'll try to find #s
you guys seem to forget fords majority stake in Mazda, their recent sale of range over and jag, their domination in many industrial apps and commercial fields
fleet vehicles, aftermarket support.
the f150 is their biggest seller ... in the US. they still have strong overseas markets in passenger vehicles. the f150 is not the sole reason ford is still around.
you're talking about the company that pioneered the assembly line, the company that throught the 1900's had one of the strongest agricultural lines there were.
ford did not make 800 mil in profits off that last report because of their fseries trucks alone. id say its a big part but def not the majority
