I was kind of wondering why I was engraving tools made for Ford with FoMoCo instead of their logo, now I know.

The decision by Moody's to raise the credit rating means that Ford can now take back control of assets -- including the Blue Oval logo and trademarks like Mustang and F-150 -- that Ford put up as collateral in 2006 when it used virtually all its North American assets to open a $23.5 billion line of credit.

And not a dime of bailout cash. Ford, to quote Dear Reader, actually had "skin in the game."

If I understand this correctly, Ford Motor Company has a better "credit rating" than United States of America.

FUBO!

I wonder just who would of paid money to have the blue oval and what did they get with the privilege of controlling it?
