Of the Big Three, Ford is actually in the best shape. They have the most money, new efficient models coming stateside from Europe, and vastly improved quality. However, all the Big Three are struggling and auto jobs represent a large portion of the US/Canadian economy. I do hope that The Big Three do pull a turnaround. Unfortunately, the US economy is becoming service based and not so much a manufacturing economy anymore. This is a serious loss to the US.
