Bill would rather the company go belly up than ever sell it. Ford family is too stupid to know they don't have the chops to run the company and they are too egotistical to ever sell.
@hs DF was at Segway for 9 years according to LinkedIn and 5 years at Tesla and Apple. If he leaves it will be after the first vehicle launches so he can put that feather in his hat. I think he burned his bridges at Tesla and probably Apple. Part of me imagines him retiring in the next 5 years, so this may be it. I'm sure he is at least 60, from seeing him in person.
@q2 You should say that to them directly in front of everyone so you can get a clear response and test out your theory
@qd They can't. They just want to hate on Farley without burden of proof that isn't doctored. Gotta blame someone, am I right?
@q2 Prove it, call it all out direct and specific. Maybe Farley will step down if you are able to make your point objectively with backing instead of like a groupie who was never shown love
@q2 This gave me a chuckle ;) - peace.
@q2 Those guys are a revolving door anyway.
This guy is so full of excr-ment, not sure what else to add.

@a4 you mean the DF who has not stayed on any one job for more than three yrs? Sorry this guy is not a winner. Company is in serious trouble. Paying a dividend of $0.75 on profits that should pay $0.11. In other words Ford continues to pay a dividend from the money in the bank. Which tells us There is no clear realistic vision or plan only PI-Y DUST.
3/4 into 2025 the recalls over 100.. last year ford paid close to $7bn in warranty. this year could be double that. Shameful and disgusting. DF so called Silicon Valley GURU took 4yrs to figure out FNV4 was not feasible. Sorry he is another loser.
Fields -puke
Hacker - puke
Farley - projectile vomiting
Farley is so impressed with Chinese companies that he might as well make a merger and become a new ceo their, he cannot deliver anything he only moves to greener pasture
Ford and VW were supposed to work together, in the US. Ford making trucks, VW making the cars. would have been a great idea but then Ford pi---d off the Germans and they walked away
“Layoffs” possible, Model e losses are dragging down Ford, some heads are gonna roll eventually.
“New CEO” hmm, well let us recite history the past 20 years, will Farley outlast Mulally? Banking on EVs, Skunkworks, Ford Racing and Verstappen? Toss up
- William Clay Ford Jr.
(October 30, 2001 – September 5, 2006) - Alan Mulally
(September 5, 2006 – July 1, 2014) - Mark Fields
(July 1, 2014 – May 22, 2017) - James Hackett
(May 22, 2017 – September 30, 2020) - Jim Farley
(October 1, 2020 – Present)
“Merger” Farley was quoted for saying “ the auto industry is headed toward significant consolidation and partnerships.” I would not be surprised if there are some, but for EVs nope and I would expect those brands to go full belly up or be acquired by a Chinese automaker.
@am did you think that would work
Troll Effectiveness
- 1/10
@ab I just took a sh-t, based on the size and shape, this is probably inaccurate.
Probably wrong on all 3
@a1 does not sound too far off looking at prior history in the auto industry.
It is public info that Farley's current compensation and stock awards are outlined in a filing from December 2023. A portion of these RSUs, valued at $3,000,000, is scheduled to vest on November 15, 2025.
Finally BF has realized DF should be at the top of the company and running the broader corporation instead of just Model e and digital/software. Let's hope so.
@OP Any new coffee machines or tea flavors coming, can you request some pumpkin spice for October and apple for the winter months please...
We ask here, figuring you obviously must have some executive leadership interactions.
@a1 loose lips sink ships.
I guess we are hearing it here first. A BŚ postinĝ
