Ford Might Not Need the Money

JUST IN CASE: Ford Motor Co. submitted a plan to Congress yesterday outlining its strategy to restore profitability, or break even, by 2011. Ford will be introducing electric and plug-in hybrids, eliminating its corporate jets, cutting executive compensation, and asking its labor union to be more flexible.

The Detroit News is carefully tracking this story along with news updates and analysis of GM and Chrysler's lobbying efforts.
