What happened to Built Ford Tough? Has @Ford Motor Company become weak? Built Ford Proud sounds so ridiculous and poser.

Yeah, While Ford's design team & others have some solid peeps - Not impressed with CEO Jim Farley and Ford's board. I know today's tough sledding for large corp leadership, but these folks need to grow some...

My guess is it is for the employees, not for us.

JD Power vehicle reliability. Look it up, Ford near bottom.

Farley is supposed to be a car guy but the board ultimately controls what goes on.I know some of the board would be better off at some other company.Maybe one that makes non descript appliances.
Weak? Even Cramer aka Jimmy Shill isn't pumping the stock anymore.

They wanna make appliances, they should go to Mitsubishi, as even Toyota has mojo

We need smol, inexpensive cars like the Fiesta, Fucus and if they want, dust off miata specs to create an EB powered Miata fighter

Thats where Ford went off the rails, they dropped the cheap cars that got good economy in favor of gas guzzler SUVs. Then turn around and claim those gas guzzlers are why we have to buy real expensive electric cars.
They argue that sales dropped off on the sedans, but they didn't drop until they announced they were dropping them and the thing no one gets is that IF 300k sedans a year weren't enough, how do 25k SUVs fill the void? They don't.
The profit argument doesn't fly either, the sedans weren't as profitable as a 150 but they weren't losing money on them like they are on the evs.
Ford closed @ 12.31
GM closed @ 32.47

GM might be worth 32.47 but F is worth about 9.00

Farley might consider a career as a comedian, but offhand comments are not going to settle things with the uaw.

Farley lashed out at UAW president Shawn Fain in the Facebook Live interview.
“Shawn has been on the TV more than Jake at State Farm at this point. I’ve heard what he wants but I’ve never heard him say once he believes the UAW can be the competitive advantage to Ford.”

Mandates arent laws, and Trump has a hell of a chance of winning, so whys everyone rushing to copy Douchella when they can wait and see what’s happening

Watch, Trump wins, EV push dies off and they’re left with egg on their face when they could have waited and kept making real cars people actually want

Save a few left coast hippies, soccer moms and posers here, no one really wants an EV, it hit its ceiling at 10% and is dropping

Everyone I talk to says EVs are a thing of the past, hybrids are what they want.

Im here looking at classic land rovers with pre-emissions diesels, best of all worlds (Manual, soft top, tunable, rugged, durable, etc..)

Hybrids are a minuscule step above EV’s, still for commies and hippies
