Ford Edge to debut in January 

Comments

Ford on the Edge Ford like all American car companies is struggling for its survival and talks of federal bailout are in the air. Just last week Standard and Poor's cut Ford's credit rating by additional two notches deeper into the junk status. Ford is desperately trying to reverse this free fall towards bankruptcy by introducing a new wave of vehicles aimed at recapturing some of its lost sales. They include: MKX, a replacement for the Lincoln Aviator sport utility, an eye-catching concept car, the Ford Reflex and a crossover vehicle called The Edge The Edge of course is also the name of U2's dreamy guitarist (born as David Evans). Many theories exist concerning how Edge came to get that name. Some say that it was due to his 'edgy' style of playing guitar, while others say it was because he rarely became fully involved in things, preferring instead to remain 'on the edge'. Edge was also responsible for U2's experimental album Achtung Baby, an album name inspired by Mel Brooks' Producers. This movie and the hugely popular Broadway show is about a producer and a CPA. When the two meet, their combined expertise points them toward the ultimate scam: Raise more money than you need for a SURE Flop Broadway Show. No one will expect anything back and you can pocket the difference. They need the ultimate bad play to do this. They find it in the Musical Springtime for Hitler. While Producers was a spoof on Hitler and Nazism, one American who took Hitler and Nazism seriously was Henry Ford himself. He is rumored to have directly funded Hitler when he was starting out in politics (an allegation which has not been proven). Henry Ford had repeatedly voiced his overt approval of Hitler's theories and was also was the first American to be awarded Grand Cross of the Order of the German Eagle, Nazi Germany's highest honorary award for foreigners. Henry Ford started the Ford Motor Company in 1903. By 1928 almost half the world's total car population comprised of Ford's. But during the WW2, Ford saw hard times and was losing $10 million a month and President Roosevelt was considering a federal bailout for Ford so that wartime production can continue.
