Which just proves they are willing to do anything to win their government master’s approval, customer needs and wants be damned.

“ Jim Farley is a marketing and customer satisfaction guy.”

Only as long as he thinks the federal government is his “customer” who needs to be satisfied.

[MinorityRepublican]

Maybe Jim Farley knows that Gavin Newsom will become the next POTUS and he will ban ICE vehicles in the U.S. during his administration.

[ProtectOurFreedom]

That’s a darn good guess.

20%?

The Union is asking 46%, a 32 hour work week with 40 hours pay and the resumption of full pensions like they were 20 years ago.

You won’t mind paying $100,000 for a Ford focus will you?

[citizen]

Well played, sir.

[Billyv]

gahead, give them their 20%, and add on 20% to the price of the car,
@@@@@@

We are told the “40%” number but not the details....

Is it a one time 40% and the static for the remainder of the contract?

These are usually multi year contracts so a five year contract might be 8% a year, or perhaps 12% in year one with 7% in the other four years etc.

The whole story would probably end the “Sensational “ headline and sound bites.

This looks stupid. But we’re still in 2023. We have to imagine where will we be in 2030? Many Baby Boomers will be dead. Gen Z are into Climate Change nonsense. So there you go.

"Volume..."

[hcmama]

This is Ford putting the blame on Biden

[citizen]

Probably auto-correct. Do not want an EV.

[july4thfreedomfoundation]

Dumb move. Ford used to be th only sane car company. to CEO build cars people want to buy. Build the cheapest car you can. gas no frills like your great, great granddaddy.

[kvanbrunt2]

gahead, give them their 20%, and add on 20% to the price of the car, see how long average people can afford one...

feh>>>
Or give them 20% build a good cheap no frills car that runs on gas and make billions. like the great granddaddy.

[dznutz]

American companies are stuck on stupid

Stuck on socialism.

Thanks but up in Santa Fe. Even bill Clinton is here! Bill Richardson funeral here. Best thing Richardson did was endorse hitlery’s opponent in 08. No we are not here for the funeral, just coincidence. Ruined part of our city tour.

[Mouton]
