What Ford's CEO Learned From Tesla's Elon Musk

[@hunterphung3638]

I am glad that Ford have a good CEO.

[@guslevy3506]

Jim gets it…there’s no need to pretend that the Emperor has no clothes, the Auto industry has been flipped over by Tesla and so there is a new game in town. This is an opportunity for Ford to become a major player in the industry again as everyone starts in 2nd place…

[@odisy64]

Jim is acting, he just recently said Ford is leading the EV revolution.

[@guslevy3506]

@@odisy64 I saw the tweet…it was a generic statement about being a player as the EV revolution is blooming. This is in stark contrast to Virgin Mary literally trying to push a Pravda narrative about being The Leader and laughably not mentioning Tesla by name. Jim has learned a lot from the precious Ford CEO’s mistakes and obviously Virgin Mary’s lunacy. He’s playing it smart by acknowledging and bowing to Elon when appropriate…whether he believes it or not.

You have passed the “Denial” phase. You are on your way to success sir!

[@Victor_Trumper]

Can you elaborate this phrase you said?

[@KeyserSozex]

Don't be fooled he's trying to do damage control after Americans laughed at him with Biden.

[@DavidMcCalister]

I think GM is in trouble... but from this interview, it looks like Ford has the right attitude and has chosen to be humble and learn the new way of making cars. GM just seems to be trying to convince everyone they are the leader with their 26 cars. They also hooked up with Nikola, and their cars have a bit of a fire problem... This would all be fine if they were humble like this guy here, but instead they are spinning as much as possible and paid the president to advertise for them.... I think I have hope for ford now after this.... how much attitude can change your confidence in someone so quickly.

Looking forward to the Ford v Tesla movie

[@dennismorris7573]

Refreshing candor from Ford Motor Company´s Chief Executive Officer Jim Farley that speaks so very well of this great American legacy company.

[@Getupntravel]

This guy has bigger balls than POTUS. Acknowledging the leader!!

[@mgdubya27]

GM's number 1, I saw it on the news.

[@Bluecollarworker01]

Ford finally has a great CEO. Bronco, Mach-e, lightning, Maverick, Raptor, the product launches have been awesome. I like the Ford direction but also acknowledgement & respect of Tesla vs GMs & Biden silence.

[@buzzman4860]

Good for Ford. Mary over at GM is living in lala land.

[@odisy64]

Jim has also said that ford is leading the EV revolution

[@grimalteruism8641]

@@odisy64 they know whats coming why didnt they get moving faster,very strange.Almost like they wanted to lose,you would think.Crash then restructure their company's I guess.

[@mikebailey2970]

they never address a viable nationwide charging infrastructure for all EVs that are not Teslas

[@rrufio3026]

Hello CEO of Ford, you forgot to add your mission statement....suppose to say we want Ford to help the world transition into much cleaner and renewable energy.

[@MichaelDabish]

Yeah that's Tesla gig. Not Ford. Powerstoke will available for some time in the future

[@sonnytsai5088]

Wow we’ll see 😎

[@rjbbtv959]

600k production 500k recalls

[@SamSam-qm1li]

Lol, the Tesla killers. Where have they gone

[@mynameismatt2010]

Fords biggest downfall is their massive debt. Would probably be a good idea to build the foundations for a strong EV business and then spin it off as its own company, unburdened by the liability that is the ICE business. It’s pretty much the only way some iteration of Ford avoids bankruptcy in the transition to EV’s.

[@fb767]

Where's the full interview?

[@MCorpReview]

How many yrs off are we? Hmmm 🤔 (be retired in 3 yrs). Gimme 4 yrs we beat Tesla like for sure!!!

[@CryptoDun]

By the time he gets all that done Tesla will still be #1, so just file for Bankruptcy now & stop wasting everyone’s time

[@regolith1350]

Watching this 2.5 years after the interview was recorded, and Ford is unfortunately nowhere near a 600,000 EV production run rate. His prediction was off by an order of magnitude, but I believe Jim Farley will successfully lead Ford through this difficult transition. At least Ford is better off than GM, led by a delusional CEO.

[@4literv6]

So by the end of 2023 fomoco wants a 600k ev production run rate. But that's globally not just in America. Because the #1 seller at least for this year is built in mexico&China. That being the mach e. And for which they get emissions credits. Those sales numbers might keep them in 2nd place for a large scale oem based in the U.S. in that time frame. Meanwhile gm is somehow claiming a million evs for the American market by 2025. This should get interesting. 😀

[@msaylorBTC100M]

since Ford still males faulty 10 speed transmissions, they havent learn anything

[@tommyvigil306]

Good CEO but TESLA will not be out done regardless of how many EV's Ford may sell.

[@gzfashions]

600k is the first step… ohhh noooo not a good answer…

[@pedroPerez-yr9wl]

“I learned a lot” I won’t get into too much detail , but trust me I LEARNED ALOT.

[@RichardJansen-j6q]

I'm happy for Ford and I like Farley. Tesla will increase the gap due to being 15 years ahead of legacy auto makers.

[@thesteelworks8088]

Hint;all Tesla patent are open source just copy and sell affordable cars

[@assyrianbetnahrian9574]

Ford is never going to get to where Tesla is ...

[@ph_hacker_d]

Meanwhile Biden and GM can’t even say Musk or Tesla’s name 😂

[@danielpoole1494]

GM knows US taxpayers bailout ...GM is Union so they don't innovate just draw a steady paycheck... Unions donate to campaigns to get government favors

[@hooberdoober576]

That TESLA is just a BATTERY company w. fiber glass attachments.

[@maxmaxie1328]

and they are making 10k per vehicle

[@nathanroberson]

😂

[@rj8u]

Two words! Government Money 😄🙈🙈💩💩

[@mooniedizzel6443]

CEO of three major company’s. Goes to show CEOs don’t really do much. All he do is tweet all day.

[@jeremyTallen1]

All these unions put out a crap product

[@Wulfcry]

Pumping out electric cars is one thing, Pumping out electric cars with software built to advance driving beyond what is not just automatic windshield operation when it rains or parking is another. Ford electric cars will be a driving hustle how long enough or cheap will this battery car last me and when can I get another with a better battery than what I have now, How much return will it give to trade. Same old same but now with batteries. While tesla drivers get advancement never experienced with a car before and they'll get better at it each time.

[@KeyserSozex]

🤣😂🤣 hahahaha. U didn't learn sht. Elon musk and Ford CEO have a different purpose of getting on that "lift"in the first place. Ones for greed and one's for improvement.
