Ford's biggest demise has been the PowerJoke diesel. From the 6.0 to the 6.4 and now the new in-house built 6.7. The 6.0 and 6.4 has cost Ford in excess of one billion dollars in warranty repairs since the 6.0 was introduced in 2003.

I agree with the diesel statement. Ford needs to come out with a new diesel engine in my opinion. But ford did just post a very nice profit, good for them.

I'm pretty sure they just did that and from what I understand it has been a great engine thus far. As far as the recalls go I would expect them to have a lot of them considering they have just turned out what like 5 or so new engines.

seemed like the new Focus got good ink, but it's getting beaten easily by the Cruze.
