    In my mind the big three are a symbol of what is wrong with corporate America.
    They don't care about the customer
    They don't care about the product
    The employee is a production unit to be discarded at the slightest
    whim
    The next quarter stock quote and management's bonus is all that matters

      I completely agree brother. I seriously hope that there will be some sort of solution to this. Businesses in general just can’t run this way on their own and I think we all know the answer for them to course correct. Thanks for the comment brother 🇺🇸🫡

Got some business trips till then but I’ll edit in the hotel at night 😁 I’m glad you are excited to see it, this one is going to be even more wild than the Jeep one lol.

    Has Ford made good cars? Sometimes. A few good ones snuck through the dragnet. '29 Model A. 39' 3 window. The 50's brought the Fairlane, the Falcon, the Galaxie, the T-Bird. The 60's brought the iconic Bronco, Mustang, and Shelby Mustang. The 70's had Gran Torino, the Grenada, the Ecoline. The 80's had the LTD/Crown Victoria, the Escort, the Taurus, the Aerostar. The 90's had the Windstar, the Explorer, the Contour and Contour SVT. The 00's had SVT Lightning (REAL power, not EV), the Focus, the Ranger, the Escape, the 500. 2010's had the Fusion, the Edge.
    The flops: the Edsel, the Pinto, the 80's T-Bird/Lincoln MK V, the Tempo, the Probe, 2000's Explorer.
    But what's shocking is two of its flagship models, the 1920's Model A and 1960's Mustang outlasting all of their other flagship models. Why?
    Because there is no money in selling good cars - good running cars keeps people on the road and away from the dealerships.
    Now with massive deficits worldwide, why are cars drastically overpriced, unreliable, sitting on dealer lots, and companies still producing them? One answer: production/financial warfare.
    Much easier to give another country 30 million $100,000 junk trucks rather than pay $300 billion.

      Brother, sounds like you really know your Fords. Thanks for sharing this knowledge with us all. I don't think many will disagree with it. I certainly don't. Isn't it crazy that Edsel was a flop? Considering it was Henry Ford's son's name?
      You bring up some interesting points that I haven't thought of, I could totally see the financial warfare at play here. I can't wait till you see the full film though, I cover some wild stuff in it that many have not talked about. My little energy drink company is probably going to be sued lol. -Brandon

      You are totally correct there. Every single car company has their own bank. Which is fine if they’re going to offer a good deal, but in general, they usually don’t. But then why do they need our money is the big question… thanks for all the comments, Norman. I hope you have a great start to your week. -Brandon

If you have time, I would love to chat with you about your marketing company. I'd be happy to share my tactics with you. Hit me up on instagram, Linkdin, or FaceBook. As for this film, its basically done, just doing small tweaks. Should be uploaded by Sunday or latest Monday. Look forward to speaking with you. -Brandon

    Yup that sounds about right. Hell back in the 90's I know ford was doing pretty bad when it came to their cars. My father had a ford tempo and that little son of a bitch was how should I say less then reliable. Left our asses stranded on the highway and was an absolute son of a bitch to work on! With ford today though they still seem to have this problem with quality control but now the prices are just so high that its almost equate to buying a luxury car with none of the luxury and all of the problems of one. I know that me and my friends would rag on ford for fucking up but the way things are going now I think it might be time to let the blue oval out to pasture or get a new CEO stat. I don't want to see ford go out of business considering this company has been doing the mass marketing of cars the longest starting with the model T. What pisses me off the most though is that I know ford is capable of making good cars! We have done it with the ford gt and the mustang as well as the beloved f series and even there e series which is basically a f series with an attached hard top with doors that swing out the back.

    • @A-BombEnergy
      @A-BombEnergy  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Man, I am sorry to hear about the issues you guys had with your Fords. I wish they built better quality than that. You nailed it though with how Ford is charging luxury prices for non-luxury vehicles. They all seem to be doing that for some reason, it needs to stop. I think you are right, the good ole blue oval might need to die away but unfortunately, you will see that they won't. The full film will really highlight a lot of what Ford is doing and it might tick you off. I hope not too much though. You are right though, Ford could seriously make some awesome cars, its a matter of choice now in my opinion. Look forward to seeing you in the comments on the new Ford Film, its going to be a wild comment section. -Brandon

    Honestly I’ve wanted to make a video called “ford is the reason you’re depressed” as the model T is largely responsible for shaping the infrastructure we have today. Suburbs and rural communities are overall poisonous to mental health, having more walkable cities (mind you, not necessarily the concrete jungles of nyc, but more mixed zoned towns where a car isn’t necessary for commuting to work or shopping) are a net positive on mental wellbeing.

    • @A-BombEnergy

      Dylan, I totally see your point. It makes sense for some people I am sure. Personally, I am like Brad Pitt in Legends of the Fall lol, I need to just hop on my horse and leave to go places. I do remember when I lived in Germany, it was nice to just walk to the store and buy things as I needed them. Would I go back to that? Absolutely. But I like my humble abode out in the woods haha.

      I strongly disagree on the "rural" aspect. All over the world there are plenty of beautiful walkable villages that are rural. Don't let the Midwest shape your view of what rural is, because yes miles between houses is a monstrosity, even upstate NY, New England, Pennsylvania, Southeast Alaska, and Hawaii have plenty of really pleasant rural towns that are walkable.

      @A-BombEnergy the idea of a GM has me pretty excited. since they killed saturn, and most of their affordable vehicles, they've gone downhill. I had a saturn and it was a great little car. I think vlogs work great as well, especially inbetween these as I'm sure the editing and production process isn't exactly speedy.
      Dodge and Chrysler are two that need this type of video to come out, too, if you don't already have plans for them. people still fall victim into buying these comfortable yet incredibly unreliable vehicles.
      my family had a 2016 Dodge Grand Caravan that shut off on an onramp. and the transmission failed at 60k miles. never buying one again, that's for sure.
