We've heard rumblings of a changing of the guard (http://www.autoblog.com/2014/04/21/ford-ceo-alan-mulally-retirement-mark-fields-replacement/) at Ford, and this live stream (http://www.mnfords.com/2014/05/01/mark-fields-new-ford-ceo-video/#continued) from The Blue Oval itself confirms the rumors: Alan Mulally will be succeeded by the automaker's current Chief Operating Officer, Mark Fields (http://www.autoblog.com/tag/mark+fields/).
Mulally, who is 68 years old, has served at the head of Ford for eight years, and his official retirement date will be July 1, 2014. Fields, who is 53 this year, has been with Ford for 25 years and has been groomed to take the helm from Mulally for the last several of those years.
