Ford is only the "leader" in pickups because GM splits their sales between Chevy and GMC. Add those sales together and Ford has been #2 for years.
I agree Ford has been behind on their engine for a long time as well. I forget how many years ago it was I first heard that the Triton was limited to 5.4L but it has been a long time, and still no replacement. Meanwhile Chevy/GMC are going strong with an engine that is up to 6.2L and can definately still go bigger in future iterations - at least up to 7.0L.
As for the stockholders revolting - that cannot happen. Due to the way the Ford stock system is set up, the Ford family has a guaranteed majority vote. So, unless one of the Fords votes against the board or sells out, the public shareholders effectively have no power.
