To the Editor:

I recently read that Edsel B. Ford II will receive the 2013 Keith Crain/Automotive News Lifetime Achievement Award in January.

This award is given to someone who has made a significant contribution to the auto industry. I have been in the automobile business since 1973 and a new-car dealer since 1988, and I will be happy to see Edsel receive the reward.

When he was with Ford Credit, he improved it in a way that helped dealers sell and finance more vehicles.

Congratulations, Edsel. You truly are a pillar of the automobile industry.
