You don't have to call it a bailout if you don't want to but please believe Ford from an investment prospective is near death company and would have certainly been dead without a government line of credit.
If I'm correct they secured those lines of credit for if something happened but as of now they have not had to use any of those funds. So at this point I have to say ford has not taken any bailout money.
