@1wrb+1qIYQ6EB "Actually, Ford sells a lot of cars"

Ford announced they were getting out of the car business back in 2018.
Since 2020, Ford has only been making one car: the Ford Mustang.
The Fiesta, Fusion, Focus or Taurus are all gone.
Too bad, because a lot of people still buy cars!
Oh yeah, how's the Mach-E doing?

I love the id--ts they bury their heads in the sand. Bad times are coming. Cars are too expensive. Interest rates are too high. 1000s are getting laid off every day. No one has buying, or selling, their homes. It's all coming to a head.

This will result in production and development cuts. The rumored layoffs still be bigger. It will include hourly as well. Fewer and shorter shifts.

Ford is on the precipice and 2024 may be the year that pushes them into bankruptcy.

I feel bad for anyone not ready for retirement.

It will be hard to get X or A PIN customers with Ford quality issues... When you see old Ford's on the road, they look terrible... When you see old BMW's they look great... Oh wait, those F-150's at Costco filling up with gas, toilet paper, and a year supply of coffee are needed... All 4 doors and 4x4 to mo--n's who never leave the cement city. No wonder European's dislike us so much!

This is the same strategy that Fird has been doing for years. Mass produce and hope that people will buy. If not then Ford lower the price to sell them. This is the only way to pay the bills and the UAW.

I will buy one if it's discounted 50%.

The only people that might buy a Ford are Ford employees and d-mb stupid people who knows nothing about automotive.

Cold weather always brings a decrease in vehicle sales.

I expect our inventory will fly off the lots as spring approaches and the temperatures rise.

We'll be wise to keep our capacity at the ready to support the demand.

Well we heard they are shipping all the excess inventory to Mexico via rail now that we have all the new employees working there with the new motto - I work for Ford, I drive a Ford".

Lets just see how this will work out.

We will have a delay with India as shipping will be by vessel.
