And given the rise in gas prices you might think...so what?  And I'm sure that these last few weeks, pickup sales may have declined, but I still do believe that Ford stock has declined too much. 

I'm probably wrong with this short term play into earnings.  After all, it did take a long time for people to realize that the stock was worth more then the sub $2 it was fetching in 2009.

But I thin that this is a good short and long term play into the $18 range, so yes, I would buy into earnings with money that you are ready to keep there for longer if necessary. 

Probably biting myself in the ass again with a short coverage on Ford, but I do think that they selloff was overdone.
