Have you seen Tesla's? Ford's increase is peanuts...or non existent, comparatively.

Not to mention the Mach E cost untold billions and it will never recoup that cost.Ford is losing a lot of money, bad Explorer launch, Bronco maybe in danger of running off the rails. The people at the front take the heat for all of this stuff.
"Seeking opportunities outside the company" Don't forget that one... but at his age, probably the "family" one."Stepping Down"
"Retiring"
"Going to spend more time with family"
We all know what it actually means.
That’s not happening anytime soon. I didn’t like Hackett as CEO but that is one correct call he made. Cars will eventually come back but not until the crossover trend has passed.Maybe Ford will start making some cars again instead of just Trucks, SUV's and the Mustang.
$11.5Billion for electrics worldwide. That‘s the Mach-E along with the electric F150 and Transit Van. A good chunk of that money goes towards battery development where all manufacturers are way behind Tesla and trying to play catchup.Not to mention the Mach E cost untold billions and it will never recoup that cost.
Please don’t mention Tesla. Others believe Tesla is irrelevant. Only discussions to blue oval applicable here.$11.5Billion for electrics worldwide.

Ford probably won’t recoup the investment on the Mach-E but, in the long term, they really don’t have any choice but to get deeply into EVs. There are several countries that are outlawing ICE and Diesel passenger vehicles in the next 20 years.
Tesla is applicable to a discussion about Ford since they are a competitor and their actions affect Ford’s actions. GM and Fiat Chrysler are jokes. Tesla is the big threat. Can’t plug your ears and pretend they aren’t there.Please don’t mention Tesla. Others believe Tesla is irrelevant. Only discussions to blue oval applicable here.
