[[[[Despite Ford’s success in the police car market, employees, including black workers who are part of Ford’s African Ancestry Network (FAAN) employee resource group have circulated a letter asking the company to “cease development, production, and sale of all custom police vehicles and products.”]]]]

As soon as a company begins entertaining this nonsense it will never stop.

I am in the projects at least several times a week. The majority of people do not want the police defunded. I’ve actually not yet met one that wanted them fully defunded.

Is it media does a good job of making it look like the majority want this. They’ve always done a good job with that.

I’m sure there are enough idiots that want them defunded but they are certainly not the majority

I am concerned about sabotage.

Like the wrenches left in the Harley Transmissions, back in the day.

Or worse, some major failure programmed to happen at, say, over 100 mph, and the flashing lights/siren on.

Like tranny shifts to park, or throttle sticks wide open, etc.

“Despite Ford’s success in the police car market, employees, including black workers who are part of Ford’s African Ancestry Network (FAAN) employee resource group have circulated a letter....”


How the press loves to generalize when it suits their purposes.

What really happened here is the company got woke, and a small group of agitator employees went full stupid. There’s a very good chance only a small portion of the employees feel this way, but now the company can’t shut them up, having already folded their hand to manage the company themselves.

I’d make a blunt statement as the CEO....you manufacture cars...you don’t manufacture social justice. Either you concentrate on your job, or we’ll find people eager to be employed, and you can go back to the quickie-mart, or the local car-wash.

And this compliance by Ford Motor Company would serve - who?

Ford markets products based on the demand from customers. That is why Ford F-150’s are the major single marque being sold on the market today. If one looks closely, the sedans and coupes are disappearing, replaced by SUVs and light trucks almost completely. Not just at Ford, but almost every manufacturer is responding in a similar manner.

Even if Ford SHOULD cease production of purpose-built police interceptor vehicles, there are any number of after-market specialists that would convert the basic platform into something very similar to what Ford is now selling as the factory model.
