    Ford is pretty smart, selling it off when the dollar is at its weakest

    Thats alright, I'm sure in the same timespan Toyota will have dissolved Subaru.

    I cant wait to see what happens with Aston Martin once they get some of the top Prodrive engineers designing them.

    They did it to raise cash, and they wouldn't get much of an offer trying to pawn off something that's losing money left and right...
