Farley is a fail, everyone knows that. He is also a puppet, controlled by the Frd family and laughable Board of Clown Directors. Let’s go through all of Farley's EPIC FAILS. F150 Lightning and Mach-E and Model E and the bs of the unethical layoffs of older pensioned talent of 2022; the lies that the layoffs was to fund EV developement, absurd. EPIC FAIL, the AV llc ( Elon has a robotaxi on the streets and Waymo thrives ) yet Frd flushed billion$$$ into Argo. Lincoln brand is laughable, for a CEO that claimed to build brands, he's allowed the Lincoln brand to become garbage ( the entire Design team should be terminated, good move eliminating the young Schwarenegger wannabe, now terminate the rest of the flunkees ). EPIC FAIL for hiring countless rejects, Doug F tops the list. Frd continues to lead the list of top companies with unethical and toxic culture, and you have plenty of reasons why the stock continues to decline. Peaking at $20 anticipating launch of Lightning to a current dismal $12.17. Ok so Farley did inherit alot of garbage after another EPIC FAIL in the form of Hackett and managed one smart move eliminating D(umb) Frd. IMO he didnt terminate any and everyone associated with that bunch of fakes. In a very short time after Mullaly's departure, Frd has struggled to maintain direction and momentum dumping one useless CEO after another under a decade compared to GM's Mary B. So what's next? The products look like cr-p and are engineered and built poorly. Layoffs? Of course, look at the metrics Managers are forced to use. Guaranteed the Fathom will be a messy launch. Frd has lost the EU market to Chinese EVs ( alot of the talent that were the target of 2022 that landed at those Chinese OEMs are having the last laugh ). 2027 is going to be a sh*tshow. So why is Farley still around?????

The Ford family has a problem cutting dead weight.
See Wayne Fontes and Matt Millen for clarification.
Canning ICE powertrain engineering while GM develops revised gas and diesel V8’s and and revised I4.
Blows billions on BEVs.
I can’t dislike this clown anymore
I don’t know. What confuses me more is why is an LL4 Tim Son-Hing still there? LL4s that follow g-y men into the bathroom to watch them p-e should be fired.
Canopy only failed due to a poor leadership decision of letting it's leader FLV go before the product and service could grab its segment in the market. Blame the automotive media for that one.
Good list but you failed to mention Farley’s Elon wannabe creations, FordX and FordNext that preceded the failure ModelE and lead the way to losing $19 Billion over just five years. And don’t forget the $200 million loser “canopy security” Why is the mo--n who claimed that was entirely their idea still collecting a Ford paycheck???
