Well.
he has a degree in aeronautical and astronautical engineering. So, he should like things that are fast.
His previous position was executive vice president of The Boeing Company, and president and chief executive officer of Boeing Commercial Airplanes.

The degree is nice, but unless the dude has business sense and can keep Ford afloat, it ain't gonna mean sh1t. I haven't followed Bill Ford's tenure, but I'm wondering if he was asked to step down or has realized his shortcomings. There is a lot of groundbreaking history with Ford. I'd hate to see it go under or be taken over by Asians (especially). Will be interesting to see how Ford is downsized and what they will offer in the market. Another interesting point will be dealing with the unions... *ouch*
