Yep, Land Rover bought the rights and used them up until 2004. Albeit a V8 version. Also Land Rovers have had AL bodies on steel frames since at least the mid 80's.
All this worry and speculation is just from the uninformed. I would expect this will be a home run for Ford and that within a few years all the big 3 follow suit. Meanwhile Ford will wrongfully claim they had an industry first and are a trendsetter...
And I like Fords!
