Why would Ford try that nonsense that didn't work for GM?

In the 1950s there were four choices of car manufacturer in the United States: GM, Ford, Chrysler and AMC.
...
GM saw its U.S. market share drop dramatically from 35 percent in 1990 to 23.8 percent in 2007
...
In 2007, GM lost $729 per vehicle, in large part due to incentives. Realizing that the model was unsustainable, GM announced it would reduce the amount of the cash-back incentives it offered, and with that reduction, sales plummeted.
No cash, no customers.
