Though initially joining the other "Big Three" American auto manufacturers (GM and Chrysler being the other two) in requesting US government-backed loans in 2008, Ford Motor Company did not request government aid in 2009 when GM and Chrysler were bailed out. Ford, being the strongest of the American auto manufacturers going into the 2008 financial crisis, now has to compete with the unfairly advantaged, mostly government-owned, GM and Fiat-owned Chrysler, both of which have had their past debts resolved during their respective 2009 bankruptcy and restructuring. Despite this disadvantage, Ford continues to lead the world automotive market producing outstanding cars which destroy their European and Japanese competition.
