  1. Just enjoy this new Socialist Utopia.All the kids are.They get to "earn" the next grade without actually going to school ,in Michigan.I know,online learning.Okay lets say that every child has attentive parents.What about the discipline of waking up,being on time,dealing with "others",listening to authority?You know,maturity.The Queen, Governor in Michigan is strongly supported by the teachers union.Teachers still get paid and kids just graduate and taxpayers get the bill.I am wondering when I "may" be allowed get a hair cut?Stay Home and Stay Safe, but the virus wont disappear?Ford ate my "free" fed $$$ and I don't qualify for stimulus $$$.I do get taxes deducted from my paycheck.A government check,no work and "free" stuff! NO civilization in the history of the world has been able to print money indefinitely.

  4. I read online that Gary Jones is 'singing like a canary' and is implicating his predecessor,Dennis Williams.I hope they clean house all the way down to the Local`s.It is obvious now that the workers have been sold out by the UAW.With lucrative,deals in place between the company and the head of the UAW,a goal of the UAW would be to keep the deals rolling,NOT, stick up for the rank and file.In plain words,from that point on, the Company OWNS the UAW.Deals destroy solidarity."They can do that",,,"be lucky you got a job",,,,"If they don't like you, I cant help you",,,,''we don't stand in the way of anybodys deal",,, are all phrases I have heard from my union representatives at 2 separate locals. Maybe after all the criminals are convicted the Government will institute some type of oversight.Then maybe ethical and principled individuals will be able to get elected and represent the dues paying Rank and File in a more fair way.Let me say that I understand not all and every elected UAW official is rotten and there are some good union people who get elected.My current local is responsive and helpful.We need to get the UAW back on track.

  6. Yup, I hate it, but it's probably the best move. If they tried to announce it now they would get so much shit form social justice warriors, it would be nuts. Best for Ford to try and ride out the storm. The internet is an amazing place, it's also a horrible shit hole.

  7. He had the opportunity to do that with both Corsair and Aviator and did not, plus he was planning a 100% Lincoln flagship with Rivian before it got cancelled. I don’t think that’s an issue at all.

  8. you’re 100% right. The moment the first fire started was the moment it was no longer about George Floyd.

  11. Seems crazy now that we used to have to wait for the monthly magazines to see new models or get automotive news.

  12. Nope, they stopped paper printing. And I had let my subscription lapse before that. I agree, it used to be really good. Over the last few years it went way downhill though. Like you said, biweekly, and when it did show up, 75% of it would be ads, and of that remaining 25%, 90% was motorsports stuff which I could care less about Literally out of a 100 page issue (or whatever it was), I'd have 3-4 pages of the whole thing I'd read/be interested in.

  13. Ford actually has 4 sub-brands if you include Mustang and Bronco. F-Series and Transit are both sub-brands that consist of multiple vehicles marketed under the same umbrella nameplate. F-Series: F-150, F-250, Superduty (250/350/450/550) Transit: Transit, Transit Custom, Transit Connect, Transit Courier (and their related Tourneo twins) Mustang: Mustang, Mustang Mach-E Bronco: Bronco, Bronco Sport Transit is by far the most successful sub-brand in the car business right now. It's a family of 4 vehicles, 15 (at least by my count) bodystyles, and sold on all 6 continents and a key reason why Ford is still in business. If not for the fact that 4 door sedan market has collapsed around the world (with notable exception of China), I would have expected a Mustang sedan. And I think if Bronco Sport is a success, we will see more members of Bronco family by next generation.
