Maybe Ford Will End Up Where GM Is.

By Eric Muller

I just called our local Ford dealer to inquire about the 2010 Fusion, a hybrid that is getting fantastic press and that is supposed to be available starting right around now. ("Right around now" would be a very advisable thing, given that there's a $3400 tax credit for the purchase of hybrids that expires today, March 31, and is replaced by a credit of just half that amount, which itself expires after the next quarter.) The answer from my area Ford dealer: Good luck finding one. He said he'll have a single vehicle, "a white one," in maybe around a month. And he said that no North Carolina dealers have any in stock right now. And we wonder why the US auto industry is struggling?
