So typical this plant manager has a information science and a MBA. No technical manufacturing degree. The best work at Tesla.
That says so much about the issues we're having. He should be out of a job.

Who knows. I still think this month is on the table. Just being a 4 hour drive from MAP it could turn around. I don’t regret the vehicle because Ford engineering did a great design. Too bad the company isn’t run by engineers like it should be. We got MBAs and a 100 year old culture that is out dated.
Is the next quarter end date June ?

I know many people who left FoMoCo in the mid-2000s due to hiring 24-year-old MBAs from Duke who did not know the automotive world.
I promise that happened at a lot of places. Those chickens always come home to roost because you put people in charge that don't know your business, and therefore your customer.

That's not true. If it was, they'd make a vehicle that wasn't dead last in initial quality.
🤣🤣 sold as many vehicles in Q1 as Ford. Best resale value
The only auto start up to reach scale in 100 years. Order backlog over 6 months. And they go in order. Giga castings are revolutionary, 30% margins compared 8% OEM. No dealers no advertising, vertical integrated. On and on. You can talk about the gaps all you want but the fact is they are going to dominate EV for a very long time.

personally i wish i wasn't buying a ford- it's a crap company based on my experience so far. I'm at this point sticking with it due to sunken cost as well as there not being other options- i want a rugged convertible. only other option is jeep. I used to really like ford but at this point am not a fan at all.

4xe was my backup plan, a PHEV that gives me 25mi range would make much of my driving pure electric. I wonder if Ford will go the PHEV route with the Bronco or try to jump straight to BEV. We'll see in the next few years.

Right, "Built", like mine was, but not "Built-Built", which is really built.

I too really like the 4xe even better than a pure BEV because i like that option of gas as well- kind of best of both worlds but i guess for now i will continue to wait
