GM, Ford contemplating powertrain tie-up

08/04/2008, 11:28 AM

By Drew Johnson

Although a General Motors-Ford merger never gained much traction in the boardroom, the two largest U.S. automakers are reportedly contemplating a tie-up to develop new engines as well as other powertrain technologies, a new report finds.

The partnership would allow both companies to share research and development costs, ultimately lighten the load on the automakers’ financial sheets. With GM and Ford reporting second quarter losses well into the billions, the partnership could prove crucial to their North American turnaround plans.

According to The Detroit News, GM first approached Ford with the idea about a month ago. Since then, there have been at least three meetings between the two auto giants.

While no deal has been reached, it is believed that GM and Ford will agree to some sort of collaboration. Although GM and Ford are longtime rivals, such a tie-up would not be unheard of. Two years ago the automakers agreed to jointly develop a new six-speed automatic transmission which has now become a staple in both automakers’ lineups.

If the tie-up does happen, it will likely focus on direct-injection turbocharged four-cylinder engines. However, according to The Detroit News, Ford is very interested in GM’s Chevrolet Volt technology, so a Ford-badged Volt is not completely out of the question. Although the move would instantly give Ford a serious contender in the green segment, it would also help GM distribute costs and possibly bring the Volt’s sticker price down to the originally intended $30,000 range.

Ford is in far better shape then GM. Future concepts that are hitting production for GM are quite embarassing. The Volt and Cruse? There trucks are sh*tty and they own 12 brands that couldnt conquer hawaii if they went to war. Talks of merges have surfaced before, it’ll never happen. Ford is having its own problems, no need for GM to unload even more trouble.

Won’t happen soon enough to speed up Camaro production, but could hasten consolidation of the US automakers and help kill Chrysler by freezing ‘em out… or at least forcing them to look overseas (Nissan, Peugeot) for similar commonality deals in which they would be the definite weak sister.

I really don’t think this would ever legitamately happen… at least not as far as automotive design goes. Maybe some sharing of engine and hybrid technology development on the 4-cyl end… but I don’t think the Mustang will be merging with the Camaro anytime soon. Though if they did merge it could save the new company millions by simply booting redundant members of upper management.

They are talking power trains, not platform sharing! They need to do more of this “collaboration” if they are going to survive. Car sales are going to dive for the next year and a half and they have to advance technology and cut budgets and this allows them to do it. I don’t think anyone is complaining about the six speed transmission so that was a huge win for both companies, why wouldn’t you look for more where that came from?

They have done a poor job in this area compared to the Euros and to a lesser extent the Japanese. BMW has deals with Renault, Fiat, Peugot as wells as GM and MB. Not to mention devlopment deals with countless suppliers like ZF transmissions.

shaver, actually Ford & GM designed and build current 6 speed autoslush box. On more historical note, GM was always the leader in automatic transmission manufacturing and was selling trannys to Europe. First Jaguar used GM transmission in their cars and was bought by Ford. The second was Volvo which actually used Cadillac tranny in their 850 series. We know bought Volvo.

*Murderedout* Wtf are you talking about? Individual experiences are a possibility, but what your speaking on is a story that was written on a 1970 “CAMARO” not a truck. Are you dumb? ANY BRAND would be lucky to exceed 150,000 miles without any problems. GM has never reported any vehicles reaching over 1,000,000 miles besides the camaro. So the question is where do your facts come from? Next ill ask you to prove all there trucks reach over 1,000,000 miles on orginal engine and trans. At that point you’ll recieve an apology. I know for a fact your statement is 100% false, actually made me laugh. Before you comment on anything, say something that is relatively true and not far-fetched bs.

*Hbc*GM does not have 1 not 1 in 12 brands a best seller. Ford has the best selling truck in the world, the mustang has never been beaten once, the edge is the #1 selling cuv, and the focus is currently the #1 small size sedan for domestics. SO actually it will be GM stealing engines or designs because obviously whatever there doing there failing miserably. THey own 12 brands and cant buy a profit out of any one of them.

Wow, it takes a collaboration between GM and Ford to create a 6 speed automatic 2 years ago. 6 Speed autos have been around for more than a decade.

Oh Jesus…here we go again with you ihustle and your “Best Selling Truck” speech. Who gives a ****? I’m going to be honest, I have an ‘07 Duramax…I love it, and it whips the pants off the Powerjoke. Irregardless, after this vehicle, and possibly a newer car of some sort, I’m not planning on buying any NEW vehicles. They suck…and do you know why they suck? No you probably don’t because you mentioned before that you may be some sort of dealer (Furd, most likely). New vehicles suck because America and it’s EPA are going down the crapper because of hippies and librals trying to get all vehicles to let exahust fumes out of a straw. Emissions on all new cars/trucks are bull****. Computer controlled (also called Engine Control Modules [ECM]) engines are bull****. There have been great advancements in automotive history…especially in the past 10-20 years, but it’s all gone to more restrictive and less enjoyable driving. Anyway…back to my point, ihustle, unless people are ****ing retarded, how many 30’s style hot rods do you see (in car shows and whatnot) that are Fords? Quite a few right? Now, how many of those Fords have Chevy engines in them? If you have at least a little sense to you, you would say many of them. And there-in lies my point. Chevy small blocks (and big blocks for that matter) are uncompromisible. Easily tuned and modified and long lasting. And if you read, read about how it took Chevy 44 years to come up with a small block [1955] (since it’s founding) and Furd 51 years [1954] (since it’s founding).

What six speed are they refering to, the FWD or RWD? As far as I know they are all Hydromatics (GM) in GM’s line up except for the Allison. 6T40E/6T45E, 6T70E/6T75E FWD and 6L50E/6L80E/6L90E for RWD, all developed by Hydromatic.

HB* I never commented on chevy’s engine. I actually agree with alot that you just said. Lucky for Ford on there part, there has been major improvements in quality since the golden years you speak of. If im buying a truck, and im using it to make a living. Towing, major payload etc etc. Im going with the best, and Ford hands down has the best truck. American people are my facts, and when you outsell your competitors for 32 years straight, america has spoken. The mustang has been the only sports car in continous production since its debut. It has outsold the Camaro every single year both were competing. GM has so much faith in the camaro that they pull them off the dealers lot every 4 years because there sales plumitt because america remains un-interested. Ford is making major improvements in there future line up. Whether bringing over some europe sales bangers, or re-creeating the taurus with the sh0 or the fiesta/verve. Or the f-100 which will take the place of the completely outdated ranger. everything ive seen in the works is awesome. Especially compared to a cobaly *Cough* i mean cruse or the volt? GM owns 12 companys and none of them are worth the hype. With there future concepts i see a dim future on GM’s side of town

You made a statement saying gm trucks are better because they last 1,000,000 miles on the same engine tranny. Let me repaste you must not be wearing your glasses.”thats why they get 1 million miles on them with the original engines and trans” So what your saying is that all of them dont get 1,000,000 miles off the original engine or trans?? OK so then you would agree that 99.9% of them wont even come close to that mile mark right? So what your speaking on is .1%. So what your telling me because .1% or even less could possibly get 1,000,000 miles, and that makes them better built trucks???? Are you insane? its not your fault, they say you recieve your mental ability from your mothers father, its also safe to say that he prob wasnt that bright. The ford f-150 has BEST in class PAYLOAD. BEST in class TOWING! Ya know, the things trucks are used for. The F150 has never been beat in sales once, not once in the last 32 years. Its been the best selling “Vehicle” in the world for a numerous amount of years. So i guess america ya know 99.9% agree, its to bad your that .1%

I think it is a good idea. Neither company has excessive development budgets, so this is a good way to keep development costs down without sacrificing their corporate identities. If it gives both companies the needed technologies to survive these tough times and be around well into the future, then I say “Go for it!”. It’s not like most people who drive Ford Corporation or GM products with the 6 speed automatic know or even care that the transmission was codeveloped by both companies.

ihustle, like megeebee said, if you combine GMC and Chevy truck sales, GM trucks outsell Ford trucks. You can talk about percentages all you want and put words in other peoples mouths, but you still cant answer my question to prove a F-150 with a million miles on it, Until you do, you lose the debate. The only reason the rustang does well is because of the female buyers who opt for less horsepower, Everyone know a Camaro is a Mans car when compared to a rustang. Second rustangs are cheaper. Only a real enthusiast can handle The camaros power, Thats why the rustang lost to the Camaro for the last 20 years in racing, the Camaro always made more power. Do you remeber the Mustang Cobra incedent of the late 90s? Due to problems with the 1999 Cobras producing the claimed power (remedied via recall), the 4.6L Cobra was not produced in 2000. Ford replaced the intake manifold, exhaust and computer components to produce 320 hp. Another thing, GM trucks have a higher resale value than Ford trucks, why is that? Like they say they are the longest lasting trucks in the road!

And also with the 3/4 ton GM pickups having 500 lbs more towing capacity, and with the GM pickups having 6 speed trannys and better fuel economy only tards with no sense of research buy Furds. They just go into the dealership and nod at ihustle’s commercials.

Best selling truck in the world! Actually best selling “Vehicle” HAHAHA So if gm sells more trucks why havent they claimed it? Dont you think they would love to take that away from ford??????? I know for a fact they would, if they could, which they dont or we would of heard about it. BEST SELLING TRUCK IN THE WORLD!!! No one has ever, and will ever take the title away/. Thanks for trying though :) I know alot more then the brochures, i proved that time and time again and it’s getting a little monotnous. Unlike you herbs i dont have the time to repaste threads, or go to youtube to find a video with the f-150 towing the sierra or whatever they call there pos’s, around the track like a fuc*ing bi*ch ;)
The facts are GM is in far worse shape then ford, and only a fool would take them on. Have you seen there upcoming cars, cruse and the volt? Yeah there going to do real well. GM owns 12 companys and they all LOSE MONEY!!!!! Every one of them. They dont dominate any country, at least ford has europe. #1 truck in the world. Most sold sports car of all time.*MUrdered* IF the camaro is so great, how come they discontinue you it EVERYTIME. Wait i know why the american public is un interested in it by the 4th year. You cant tell me sh*t. If they were selling that many it wouldnt of been absent for the last 8 years. The camaro is a joke and so are there trucks. 100% sure the edge is the #1 selling cuv in the market right now. Focus is #1 small size sedan for domestics. GM DOESNT HAVE one #1. WTF are you talking about? I can tell why all you guys are bloggers. You sit on your computer “Chatting” like herbs, its like a fan telling jeter how to play. No one cares what you guys think, your opinions go un heard!!! ;) No one gives a sh*t what you guys think. You sit at your computer n try to type like you know something.

PROVE IT ;) Its funny how you guys look for outs “FULL” size trucks thats comparing the F250 vs there. GM also combines sales. THE F150 vs there truck the F150 blows them out of the water. IF you read anything ive stated the F150 is ATHE BEST SELLING TRUCK. Prove to me that GM has claimed that they sell more then the f150 wait you cant because its no existent. Thanks for trying ;)

GM sells more light duty pickup trucks 1500/2500/3500. Ford claims F-series, not just F-150, but the f-series, which includes medium duty trucks. So GM sells more 1500/2500/3500 than ford does f150/250/350. I guess it’s because they are better, longer lasting trucks. That ad also stated they are the least expensive to own and operate. So suck it ford and suck it ibot

Oh, and you seem to spread plenty of your propaganda here as well. The only difference is that none of us are buying it.

Maybe you’ve heard of D R Horton, the largest home builder in the country? That’s who just walked out of my office very happy at the video footage we did of their event.

Thats like me trying to tell you which camera is the best. my opinion would be invalid because you actually deal with cameras in your line of work. SImilar to myself with automobiles. Your opinion is invalid camera man, you are not in the buisness. Name dropping get you no credit or respect. I sold a car to Maury, do i name drop for acceptance.

Actually, if you had an opinion about cameras, I would listen. I have no idea who else is a hobbyist, and I don’t sell cameras. That’s where you go wrong. EVERYONE has experience in one way or another. Assuming someone doesn’t have any knowledge or experience of a subject is just plain foolish. I don’t sell cars. That is true. But I drive a hell of a lot of them, ranging in size from the Smart ForTwo to full size transit buses. I’ve fixed my own vehicles, restored classic cars in my off time, and participated in sanctioned drag racing and circuit racing. I’ve swapped engines out of Volvos and honed cylinders on a Chevy 350. I’ve done all sorts of things with cars. If you told me anything about a Panasonic P2 or a Red One, I’d listen. You know why? Because it would be experience that I have not had yet, that’s why. You, on the other hand, shut out all other opinion except your own, because you are “in the business.” My point that I made (very well I might add) is that you are only a small part of the “business” that you are in. You are among a whole bunch of enthusiasts, you know, people that actually drive what you sell. Saying we don’t know what we’re talking about is like saying a weekend Cessna pilot doesn’t know a damned thing about airplanes. That’s just a foolish way of thinking. You never know where experience or ideas come from, and shutting them out for whatever prejudiced reason is just plain stupid. Whether or not anyone should be on this site has nothing to do with profession at all. I’m here because I like cars. I’m assuming you’re here because you like cars. Everyone is here because we all like to talk about cars. If you joined Creative Cow or Apple Discussions group, I wouldn’t tell you to take a hike because you’re not “in the creative business.” You are very foolish for thinking you can say that to us.

I am not foolish at all. I have a valid point. Its hard for me to even listien to an opinion when i feel that i know more then someone. Or even the fact that people are shooting opinions on a topic, where really there opinions are invalid. I will continue to say whatever i want because i live in america. Theres nothing you can do about it. If you dont agree with me thats fine, dont comment on my opinions. I feel its very funny that everytime i post the same guys are bashing me, im no punk and retaliation is second nature. DOnt stick your hand in the fire if you arent ready to get burned. If you disagree with my posts dont reply. I never reply to anything you say or bash you first. SHow the same respect. Everything i said before i meant, i can’t take opinions of “BLoggers” who tell me what trucks the best. Your opinion is invalid. If my truck is the best selling truck of all time that means america shares the same opinion as me. Sales due the talking. If you disagree thats fine, i have the best selling truck and america proves who they like more for the last 32 years. Id rather have the masses then some bloggers acceptance. :)

ihustle: Are you sure you don’t get uptight? You seem to be pretty passionate about getting your point across to a bunch of people who you don’t care about (”bloggers”). Because from where I sit, it looks like a guy sitting in his office at a Ford dealership because he couldn’t make it doing anything more important with cars/trucks such as racing or development or anything else. So instead he settled for a car/truck dealer. I don’t know about you, but of all the people I talked to I can’t really think of anyone who “enjoys” talking with a sales-person (especially one of your arrogance). So when it comes down to it, all you are is the middleman between Ford and the consumer. You read their pamphlets and their bulletins and memorize all their bull**** and repeat that back to the customer. If you were really a “sucessful businessman” you would OWN your own dealership instead of just being a sales-person for some guy who works with Ford to sell vehicles.

murderedout: I agree, as long as it’s domestic (and if not built here, monies come back to the headquarters here) we should all be on the same side. But that has nothing to do with someone so arrogant and ignorant that they are completely blind to everything else around them. I don’t think anyone on here dislikes ihustle because he sells Furds…imo, we dislike him and argue with him because he’s a jackass…and because it’s a riot!

HBC i have a respectable job, and i take pride in what i do. im 23, by american standards am i supposed to own a dealership? i dont have a rich daddy, i live on my own and support myself, and there is certainly no shame in that. If your trying to put me down personally you’ll have to type something better then that. FYI i am one of the top sales man in the ny nj region and im coming into my second year. If you ask me i am doing exeptionally well for myself. I am not one to get my hands dirty, i can make more money in a day then you can in a week just by using a few words. No swet, or stress. If you were half as good at anything as i am with selling cars, you would be able to take pride in things you do. Money makes the world go round and not everyone has the ability to raise enough capital to starrt a dealership. I would say the majority of america couldnt, so does that make me less of a man? Im not quite understanding so your not just bashing me your putting dopwn the majority of america. I have a condo on the ocean, private beach, nice car and a slamming girl. If you ask me im living the american dream. The difference between you and i are pride. I have no shame in telling anyone what i do and where its at, you on the other hand are a coward. Why the fu*k would i want to be a race car driver????HAHAHA i dont even know how that could be considered an insult but o well. Thanks for trying though theres always next time kid ;)

ihustle, you need to read carefully, I said why didn’t you speak on the Ranger? Then I made my point because it has horrible sales! None of your previous posts states anything about the Ranger. FYI, there is going to be no F-100, I know this because I live in Michigan, and my friend works at the Ford Proving grounds in Romeo,MI. He said Ford still hasn’t made up there mind yet, if they want to redesign it, or scrap it all togather, because of the high fuel costs.

You’re a ****y yuppie who has never touched a shovel or rake in your life with, yeah, probably a pretty hot girl. You care more about her looks and your own looks than anything else. Little do you know she’ll probably up and leave your ****y ass for some older guy who, God forbid, looks better and makes more money with a bigger beach house and sexier car than you. But you’ll be ok, because she was just a piece of ass and you can find hotter. You have no idea who I am or where I work or what I make, so I don’t know how you know how much money you have to make in a day to make more than I do in a week, but ha, whatever. I’m not gonna waste my time trying to tell you everything that is wrong with you because you aren’t going to listen or care anyway. I just find it funny that you have to divulge your personal life (if it’s not something from a fairy tale chick flick) to try to prove to me that you are better at life than I am. Just by the way you talk/type, to to pretty much everyone, I KNOW that I’m doing better than you are, son. Haha…

Well you know what ihustle…I’m the Cheif CEO of a major corporation. One of which you’ve never heard of. I make a million dollars every 30 minutes. I once had lunch with the Chicago Bears. I own a Ferarri, BMW, GMC Duramax, 3 Camaros, a Ford GT, a Peterbilt, 8 different motorcycles, a yacht, a lake house in Texas, two greyhound buses, 15 four wheelers, 9 dirtbikes, over 80,000 combined acres, two other mansions, and a total of about 5 swimming pools. I have a lady in every state who can suck me off whenever I want, I once ran down an ostrich in Africa just because it got a feather on my Armani suit. I’ve climed Mt. Kilomanjaro, cliff dived in Mexico, and hunted Condor in California. I make money like you piss. I have 20 inch biceps and a rock hard ass. I can bench press 700 pounds. My hair is made of silk and I can speak in 20 different languages, even though English is the only one I use. I’ve written 4 books about my journeys and raced in the Tour De France. I own 2 racing teams, one with the IRL and one with F1. I hang out with Jay Leno on a daily basis. I’ve had sex with actual porn stars. I’ve been on dates with Elisha Cuthbert, Amanda Peet and Eva Longoria. I once farted in Nancy Pelosi’s cereal and told her that Fruity Pebbles had a new flavor they were testing. I framed John Wilkes Booth for killing Abraham Lincoln and I’ve met with 3 different Presidents. I’ve ****ed your girlfriend…along with 20 other bitches in Jersey…including your mother. I can run faster than a horse, jump higher than a kangaroo and can go 20 days without sleeping. I have X-ray vision and can lift vehicles with one hand. I own 13 $300,000 combine harvesters and 21 different types of tractors, AND I have beaten every video game known to man. I KNOW THAT I AM BETTER THAN YOU!

…see, I can create lavish stories about myself too, but it doesn’t mean that anyone gives a turd about your pathetic existance. One day, sport, you’ll find out that you are the lowest of the low, and there are PLENTY of people who are a ****ton better than you.

Now im speaking on my personal life which id like to leave personal. I do not judge people, and do not feel like im better then anyone, this conversation has taking me totally out of character with who i really am. I am sarcastic and arrogant, but im at piece with that. I understand my flaws and on a daily basis attempt to make myself better.

LOL, a product demo. I know things and systems on vehicles you’ve never heard of, that my business. See, the difference is I know why something is better, you say what someone tells you. Do you even know what happens by the time you turn the key of the ford you drive until the engine starts, and what happens when you put it in gear and how that all relates together. Load that on to your hard drive sales bot.

ifagget, i’m not going to google earth it, waste of time, besides yeah, it may not be a fake address, but it may be your parents, or someone else’s address. Anything else you need to get owned on?

owned on? What the hell does that mean. I give you an address and i get owned? I guess nothing you says makes sense, so why should this right? You just end a sentence with owned, warmed up or some other stupid adjective. Very predictable. Of course you wont google earth it, because your afraid of the out-come.Go think of some more childish remarks, maybe you’ll have some sort of inteligence response, i don t count on it :)
*Monte*Great!!!!!!! You know what happens when no one is caring!!! You know all the sh*t a customer is uninterested in, and things they can’t relate to. Thats why im the salesman. I can c it now, “MR.customer, do you know what happens between the second you turn the key and the engine starts?” Customer:”Of course i dont, and why would i care?”, you know all the shi* that has nothing to do with a customer wants and need. GO change some oil, maybe you can relay to us how you accomplish that. Im sure they’d care HAHAHAH ;)

ihustle, why would I be afraid of you living and mooching off your parents for? You’re a joke! It doesn’t take a bunch of takes or me to stand here in LLN all day, for me to say the truth, okay? You’re drooling, you have tooth decay.Your mouth is open, you’re disgusting, what the **** you eat for lunch? A bunch of sweets or something, What? You munch a bunch of Crunch ‘N Munch?Your tooth is rotten to the gum, your breath stinks, wanna chew some gum? Yes I do sir, what am I on? You sir are on truth serum!

ibot, I agree with you, the customer doesn’t need to know how their vehicle works or give a ****. My point is I know more about why the fords you rave about are better/worse. All you do is read some advertising brochure. You might be a great salesman, I don’t know or care, I’m just saying that maybe alot of what you say is BS and you’re to uneducated to see that.

*Murdered* Again you are soooooo smart!!! I really can’t believe how intelligent you are!! hahaha f*ckin joke is all you are. Again nice come back!!!! I feel like im arguing with a chimpanzee. The only thing that you said that was clear, was i live at home??? Ive been on my own since i was 16 so there goes that prediction. ;) again valiant effort. As for the rest of the conversation, what can i expect from a retard? You dont have the mental capilbilities to defend your self. *Monte* What have i said that was incorrect? Im not understanding your arguement. Besides your personal hatred of me, this is nothing more then a personal attack. I understand that, there is no point though, confusion is more like it. As long as your good at what you do, why do you care? I am uninterested in what you do, because i dont care. Your obsessed with my profession, and what i do. If you put that same effort into your job, you might be able to become at least half as successful as me ;) take a break, or have some coffee, your fight isnt with, its with yourself.

I was a general statement of your blind bias towards ford. And I am very successful at what I do.

WTF would i support another brand?????? OF COURSE IM BIAS!!!!! I sell Fords!!! IF you worked for Cocacola, would you give pepsi props??????? You definately would not, especially when Coke signs your checks. That was the most ridiculous statement you’ve made so far. Think before you type. Obviously you dont like me, thats fine. Dont start an arguement over nothing, thats foolish and immature. Arent you the pot calling the kettle black.. Way out of line.

I’m so sorry I hurt your feelings tough guy. The original discussion was trucks, and I was just proving that you don’t even know why one is better than the other. You just blindly choose your favorite over the other brands because you like it.

Are you talking about the fully boxed framed, that helps stand resistant in the must rugged conditions. Or the monotube shocks that help you hug the road with precisioun turning or the over sized leaf springs that give you that confortable ride. How about that 5.4 triton V8, helping you pull loads of all sizes. Best in class towing and payload. Wait a sec. SO when did i say you hurt anyones feelings? Ohh i forgot you make up statements to make yourself look better. Blindly???? 33 years straight, im selling the best!!!! Your dam right this is about trucks and i have had the best truck for 33 years!!!!! ;) valiant effort though

Do you even know what a monotube shock is?….no you don’t. They are nothing new, they’ve been around for decades. Ford just says that to act like its some new great sh1t they just came out with. It’s just marketing propaganda. Like you said before, the customer doesn’t know or give a sh1t. Thanks for posting the exact crap you were just b1tching about. “Hey Mr. customer did you know this has monotube shocks?…..Customer:I don’t even know what that means, and why do I care.” Sound familiar? And oversized leaf springs are for load capacity, they actually make the ride worse. Maybe you should pick up a book and learn something before you talk. I’ve never seen you post anything other than the same ford ads over and over. So, nice try to you tard, better bring it a little smarter next time. :)
