Wow. Got a link? I'm reading a Fark thread where someone mentions Ford plans on declaring Chapter 11. Looking for confirmation, but take with a grain of salt, it is a Fark thread.

I'd look for GM to go first, out of the (former) big three Ford is in the least trouble (for now).

That's what I thought as well; I've been unable to find any info other than the fact that GM has stopped matching on people's 401ks.
