Thread regarding Ford layoffs

Stop making cars announcement coming

Oh-ho-ho! Sounds like the Europeans are having a bit of a vehicular identity crisis, huh? You’ve got the Brits sipping tea in the driver’s seat going, “Well, the engine makes a curious noise, doesn’t it, Nigel?” Meanwhile, the Germans are standing around in lab coats going, “Zis car has nine hundred sensors but... it still won't start.”

And now—hold on to your steering wheels—Big Bill (you know him, big guy, always smiling like he knows something you don’t) might just step in and go, “Hey folks, what if we just... bought the cars?” That's right, not build 'em, not fix 'em—just buy the whole operation. It's like America's saying, “You know what? We'll take two to go and supersize it.”

So is this the template for the U.S. too? Well, maybe! Why make cars when you can make deals, baby! Forget torque, forget horsepower—we're talking stock options and brand synergy! We’ll slap a logo on it, stream it on Netflix, and bo-m—it's a hit! “Now introducing the iTruck: runs on Wi-Fi and dreams!”

The quality of Ford vehicles is terrible.
Also the blue oval is ugly and looks like it belongs on a tractor from the 1920s

They could stop trying to sell horrible subscriptions and actually make quality cars that work.

Is that too proactive of a strategy?
