Ford did not receive any "bailout" funds, either as equity or debt.

"As the only one of the U.S. Big Three that didn't accept the offer of a federal-government bailout in 2009, Ford [relied] instead on its own huge bet on its future financed by private capital and led by CEO Alan Mulally"

That's right, ford didn't get a bailout, they got the exact same loan Tesla has, but theirs was bigger.
