Excited about Ford’s 7.7% increase in Q3 sales?

Don’t be, we were second from last.
GM increased 21% and sold 174k more vehicles than Ford
Toyota increased 12.2%
Honda increased 52.7%
Hyundai increased 9%
Nissan increased 40.8%
Only Stellantis did worse than Ford, decreasing 1%

You can easily see where the people who aren’t buying Ford’s “most recalled” vehicles are taking their money. Between the Lightning and Mach-E, less than 21,000 were sold. We used to cancel vehicles that performed that poorly in the market.

This is not going well.

Ford sales are down so bad that they closed most overseas plants, with exception of Mexico. India, Africa, Russia, EU, and some in China.

Sales in China went from 970k in 2016, down to 150k in 2022. US is next.

Ford has always spun mediocrity as winning. That's all Erich Merkle does. Takes losing numbers and makes them look better. I wonder how much he gets paid to lie.

Ford, losing market share since Farley joined the company as VP Marketing in 2009.

@ucg marketing budget dollars. First year is “free” paid for by Ford to inflate subscription sales numbers. Subscription revenue at Ford will always be a rounding error to vehicle manufacturing revenue.

BlueCruise is doing well. Which demonstrates that subscription/services is a very viable profit path for the company.

At least we are not in the first place from the bottom of the list.

Ford was recognized for 1st place for Recalls 2 years in a row.

Ford is in 3rd place from the bottom for JD Power reliability study.

Something to be proud of huh?
