The Ford Plan
At Ford, we are headed in a new direction. We’re focused on building a bright and viable Ford Motor Company, for today and for the future. After turning a profit this year in the first quarter and making significant progress on cost reductions, we were hit by a spike in gas prices followed by the current credit crisis.

The Ford Explorer has been a part of my life for almost 8 years. And while I have had the option to purchase a newer vehicle, my faith has never waivered in its reliability or worthiness. Over the years I have learned to appreciate the vehicle for more just the sum of its parts. The entire concept of Explorer drives my life\'s motivation to continue to reach out and push the boundaries of life itself.
