GM/F?

With the current conditions in the American automobile market, Ford and GM are investigating the possibility of an alliance. (http://library.corporate-ir.net/library/93/938/93888/items/176368/FDO_AR2005.pdf).

Both companies are currently experiencing declining sales and job cuts in order to remain afloat.

The restructuring efforts between the companies and their already excellent product knowledge would not only allow them to cut costs and effectively restructure, but also to manufacture a product of unsurpassed quality.
