Ford CEO Doesn't Drive a Ford 🤯

A slap in the face to thousands of his employees

The Daily Caller News Foundation broke the news that Ford CEO, Jim Farley, admitted on a recent podcast to be driving a Chinese EV that he had flown in from Shanghai months ago.

Farley’s recent admission that he drives a Chinese-made electric vehicle is a slap in the face to the thousands of hardworking employees at Ford Motor Company. At a time when Ford is receiving billions of dollars in subsidies from American taxpayers to support domestic EV production, it is deeply troubling that the company’s chief executive would choose a Chinese product over the American vehicles his own company manufactures.

This decision not only undermines the efforts of Ford’s workforce but also raises serious questions about leadership commitment to the brand and the quality of Ford’s electric vehicle lineup. If the CEO of Ford doesn’t believe in the products his own company builds, how can he inspire consumer confidence or justify the billions of public dollars supporting Ford’s EV initiatives?

Farley’s allegiance seems misplaced. While he is free to drive any car he chooses, he should no longer be entrusted with leading a company built on American innovation and manufacturing, and one that’s bilking taxpayers and shareholders of billions of dollars. Ford deserves a leader who believes in and stands by the products that thousands of employees work tirelessly to create every day.

It’s time for new leadership at Ford—one that supports American workers, takes pride in the vehicles they build, rejects political agendas, and puts the industry’s future ahead of personal preferences for Chinese-made alternatives.
