Ford was number two until Toyota bumped them off the fencepost. If Ford wants to retain the number two position, then it must do what Toyota is doing. Afterall that is how Toyota became number two, isn't it?
First, it would be prudent to buy out Mazda completely, or at least bump Ford's stake in the company from 37% to 50%.
Secondly, Mazda should design and manufacture all FWD Ford cars to compete directly with Toyota.
