They are losing as much money as everyone else, they just happened to mortgage all of their assets prior to the credit market tightening, and are not in such a bind for cash. But credit them on seeing what others did'nt see ahead of time and knowing when to borrow the money. No disrespect to the mustang, but I question the strategy, most sports car buyers really don't want their car to be associated with a scrunchie for a 12 year old girl...
