Parts shortages
And the part shortages start again: GM Ford
Forum Discussion
I have no issue with some kind of direct sales if that's how they want to go. But looking back (COVID is easy to blame):
1. Chip shortages created havoc; especially for diesel sales. Chips are an outdated design.
2. All this money going into EVs for Ford. It seems the regular cars are propping up the EVs. Lately, Ford's reliability record hasn't been too impressive. Almost as if they're short changing the gas/diesel improvements and quality control.
3. The EVs just aren't impressive. Tesla is light years ahead.
4. Now all these part shortages. Seen a few guys on the Ford truck forums with broken down brand new Super Duties and no guess as to when Ford can get them the part.
I honestly think Farley should step down. But as long as he can redirect public opinion by bringing up some crazy new idea, he'll be able to stay.
Squirrel!
