Ford Sales Down As It Faces Labor Talks

DETROIT-- Ford has something else to bring to the table in its ongoing contract talks with the United Auto Workers union: A dismal September sales report, according to the Associated Press.
Ford's U.S. sales plunged 21 percent last month as the automaker continued sharp reductions in sales to rental car fleets. Toyota Motor Corp. outpaced Ford for the month and for the January-September period, continuing its drive to replace Ford as the nation's No. 2 automaker in sales after General Motors Corp.
