There are times when people (also legal) are able to learn from their mistakes, redemption, and out of the pit. A good example is Ford Motor Company. If two years ago the president attended a meeting with Obama along with representatives of General Motors and Chrysler, today, after a complete renovation of its range, building on technologies “green” and, above all, listen to their customers, only one of Detroit’s Big Three did not ask public aid, is placed as the fifth largest producer and put the fourth goal to finish by 2012.
Ford Motor Company was founded on June 16, 1903 in Michigan by Henry Ford. The company, which has given birth to such legendary models like the Ford T (first car in the village), the Mustang of the seventies, the Ford GT (which swept LeMans) and models of success around the world as Escort, Sierra, Fiesta, Focus and Mondeo, was for decades the second-largest maker of cars behind arch rival and neighbor, General Motors.

Powered by a huge domestic market, which enjoyed a large market share, and a good image in the tough European market (unlike General Motors, competing with brands such as Opel and Vauxhall, Ford is a global brand) survived “easily” the depression of the ’30s and was strengthened after World War II. However, was not able to understand that global similarly, the energy crisis of the early seventies.
