Ford on the offensive

Maybe its just me, but Ford seems to be making a turn around. I've heard a lot of things about their improved quality in the last few years. They got the Fiesta comming up. The Fusion and Focus mileage are now on par with the Accord/Camry and Corolla/Civic. Now they have their own new hybrid technology comming out in (you guessed it) 2010 with aims to beat the Camry hybrid by "at least 5 mpg in the city". I gotta say, it looks like they may be headed in the right direction. This excite me as I really would love to buy domestic if they can put something out there worth buying.
