The beginning of Ford's demise was when Ford retreated from the car market to focus on trucks and SUVs - in my opinion. Most young people's first vehicle purchase is a car - so you lose the brand loyalty war when you got out of the car market. Not to mention the 25% of the market that wants a car and would like to buy American - like myself - I love the Ford Fusion but they will eventually all be gone. 😢
@Michael-ur5qb9 ай бұрын
Agreed. I don’t get in a world where Apple makes cheaper products to sell to youths to start brand loyalty early you suddenly think your company is the exception. Meanwhile, small cars and sedans are up (if they are reliable). I don’t get not at least having one car, especially when the cars shared platforms. Your telling me the Bronco Sport, Maverick and Escape was a better investment than Bronco Sport, Maverick and say Focus (sedan and hatchback). Meanwhile, rewind to 2016 and 600k cars were being sold. Even The Focus RS was selling better at the time than the Type R. I don’t get why they left other than greed and search for profit but than Covid pointed out what happens when your line up isn’t diverse enough.

That power issue you are talking about in the ford trucks with the battery recall, happened to me in my ram 1500. I was at a stop sign, waiting to merge onto a highway with speeds of 75mph. Went to get up to speed and lost all power of everything, the radio, lights, I hit the gas and nothing! Then all of a sudden I got power back and was able to get up to speed and to work. Freaked out a little. Talked to some coworkers about it, they said I should get a new battery. I did. Hasn't happened since. But man was it scary, luckily there were no cars super close to me and the ones that were noticed what was happening and avoided me.

I love my Ford trucks, but these past few years has proved Ford hasn’t learned from the past of American auto makers. They focus on making a quick dollar today at the cost of losing customers tomorrow. Play the long game, Ford. Put your efforts into process and supply chain efficiency, without sacrificing production quality. If it takes 3mo to build a truck after improvements, then it takes 3mo to build a truck. You might have customers complaining that it takes too long to get inventory or their trucks built, but you’ll have a much happier customer in the end and not ruin your name.

The problem with the EV market is unless you have a car that does as much as and costs as relatively little as a Tesla, you ain't gonna sell anything. And if Tesla sales are slowing then you definitely ain't gonna sell anything. The hybrid / petrol / diesel market will follow soon. The attempt to keep new car prices elevated will only work for as long as nobody blinks. The same here in the UK - ONE company controls over 50% of the resale auction market - everything rolls through the auction sheds with no bids - but they keep throwing them in the ring.

If someone could explain this to me I would appreciate it. Even when I was a little kid I took an interest in learning about money. I would ask my dad things like : how much do people make? How much does a house cost? How much does a car cost? Etc. what I don’t understand is this: back in the 70’s my dad made $35,000 a year and my mom made about $10,000 a year. They bought a house for $23,800 and a brand new car for $5,000. So, they made more in a year than the combined cost of a house and a car. Now, in 2024, where I live the average home price is around $1,000,000 and the average car is about $65,000. Yet people make about $150,000 household income. That is less than 1/10th the combined cost of a house and a car. How is this sustainable?

Good thing is I can do all the work myself cept the windshield which is only a couple hundred bucks. Also a big consideration is the price increase of full coverage insurance for these expensive trucks. Should do a vid on insurance costs on new vehicles, especially the EVs.

Maybe you should preface your comment with "In my opinion", Automobile is........ I use my vehicles and heavy equipment for business and dollar for dollar my vehicles have been a fantastic investment. I agree, for some, an automobile is not a good investment.

Another great video, you didn't mention the Escape, why would you buy that vs a Rav4?

I’ve been able to afford and buy two F150 Lariat’s in the last 10 years would like to purchase another one but Ford has priced me out of the market….I don’t get it.
@cwqrpportable9 ай бұрын
I ordered another new Lariat 502A PB on March 19. I paid way below MSRP and I felt like I got a good deal from my dealership. I cross shopped other brands this winter and it's really no different at any other manufacturer.

ALL VEHICLES ARE TOO EXPENSIVE!!! And very poor quality, unreliable, undependable then the dealerships rob you like thugs in a dark alley. Come for service and you better have deep deep pockets

2:26 all Mavericks aren’t hybrid the better buy would be the 2.0 Ecoboost bc the hybrid comes with a cvt transmission which are not good at all
@chrisfrank84139 ай бұрын
Plug-in Hybrids. From the beginning. 30 mile on electric, save on gas, also can take a frip on Gas.
@briangray59219 ай бұрын
Glad I went with regular gas 2.0 turbo on my Mav. If you want a hybrid go Toyota.

I actually wouldn't mind owning a Bronco sport if they didn't have those stupid ecoboost motors. Ford needs to move on from that. They just released a new 6.8l motor for the superduty, it has cam new tech, just design a 4 cylinder motor that shares features with the new 6.8l & drop those stupid ecoboost motors.

The whole market needs to collapse with NO fed bailout. Get real with pricing and the value of a dollar. Also in step with what a working man makes. It is ridiculous!!
@manuelmadrid50655 ай бұрын
Well, if they had cared about the customers. Overpriced suv´s, trucks and so on. What is insane is that they dont sell cars anymore, besides the mustang. When companies stop caring about customers, they go down hill. Maybe they could care about the customers again.

@wa210 2 local Ford dealers here have a few 150's on the lot. They can't keep the King Ranch, Platinum and Limiteds models in. Selling as well as they always have. Best selling vehicle in America.
