Ford will conduct two conference calls on January 29, 2009 to review preliminary fourth quarter and full-year 2008 financial results and 2009 outlook. Beginning at 9:00 a.m., Ford's President and Chief Executive Officer Alan Mulally and Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer Lewis Booth will host a presentation for the investment community and news media to discuss Ford's preliminary financial results.

Kent will host a presentation for fixed income analysts and investors. Investors may access this presentation by dialing 866-275-3409 (or 1-617-597-4027 from outside the United States). The passcode for either telephone number is a verbal response of "Ford Fixed Income."

Investors may also access replays of the presentations after 2 p.m. the day of the event through Thursday, February 5, 2009 by dialing 888-286-8010 (or 1-617-801-6888 from outside the United States).

Please note that Exhibit 99 to this Form 8-K discusses revenue and profits excluding special items for Ford's Automotive and Financial Services sectors and for the primary operating segments and business units therein. The most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles are revenue and profits including special items. We believe that revenue and profits excluding special items are useful measures to provide investors, because they exclude those items that we do not consider to be indicative of earnings from ongoing operating activities. As a result, revenue and profits excluding special items provide investors with more relevant measures of the results generated by our operations.
