Looks like all kinds of companies are getting into delivering the personal touch - General Motors is actively <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2010/03/26/report-gm-scouring-internet-for-customer-complaints-and-respond/">looking for unhappy customers</a>, <a href="http://www.nbcbayarea.com/news/weird/Steve-Jobs-Apples-Most-Popular-Customer-Service-Agent-89150707.html">Steve Jobs is personally replying</a> to e-mails from Apple users, and now <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/make/ford">Ford</a> CEO Alan Mulally is delivering a car to a customer in China. To be completely fair, this isn't the first time Mulally's trekked from the tower to the front lines with a set of car keys: he delivered the <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/2009/05/28/microsoft-ceo-gets-1-000-000th-sync-vehicle/">one-millionth SYNC-equipped car</a> to Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer. <br />
<br />
This time, however, the recipient was Jane Q. Citizen, otherwise known as a Chinese Ford <a href="http://www.autoblog.com/model/focus">Focus</a> buyer by the name of Harriet Luo. You can read the tale of Mulally and the far-reaching Focus in Ford's press release after the jump. Anyone want to place bets on how soon we'll see Whitacre tossing the keys to a CTS-V Sport Wagon?<br />
