People don't understand, the decisions that are fucking FoMoCo to death weren't made by Bill Ford. They were made by people long before him, Mark Fields, Jim Padilla, etc, etc got in their offices...Bill Ford didn't decide to build nothing but SUV's. Bill Ford didn't sign the new deals after market share started to rise in the early 90's.
The guy sitting in the far corner office on floor 12 is academic when you're paying some skill-free chimp $70k a year for the next 25 years, + medical, dental, spouse. Likewise, neither Carlos Ghosn or anyone else can come in and say "HEY! RAW MATERIAL COSTS! SETTLE THE FUCK DOWN! I've had it with you skyrocketing steel!"...
