They make them in Mexico and import them, too...

That’s where you’d find real salsa... :)

Stop making unsubstantiated claims then.

Actually, early versions of Sync were outstanding for their time - way beyond the competition. It was the second version with MyFordTouch that blew.

Now with Sync3 (yes, its still called Sync), they’re back to head of the pack while much of the competition is struggling with many of the same issues Ford had with Sync2.

“Do your research” =  Go onto google and listen to the other conspiracy theorists without any evidence.

I’d wager they’re still importing from Hermosillo at least.  If the EcoSport succeeds, I’d expect that might move to Cuautitlan.

My take (from the management side):

I don’t want any employees to ever feel the need or desire to form a union.  If they do, I haven’t done my job right.  Not because I should be spreading anti-union rhetoric, but because I should be able to make the business case clear to them and treat them well enough they don’t…

There’s no way Hermosillo, Cuautitlan, or Oakville are closing. The point should be that Ford hasn’t opened a new factory in Mexico in over 30 years (compared to multiple plants in the US in that time), the vast majority of the vehicles they sell in the US are made in the US, and they export more than they import.  If…

“So we got BMW, Volvo, Toyota, and... lots of other “foreign” brands with U.S. factories while Ford and GM, “American” companies, assemble primarily in Canada and Mexico.”

This is utter bullshit.

Ford exports more vehicles than it imports. They import the Fusion, MKZ, Edge, MKX, MKT, EcoSport, and Transit Connect. Do…

Your anti-union diatribe is tired. You really need to understand how labor laws in this country work.

1) If an employee is represented by a union and is subject to discipline, including termination, and feels the union hasn’t defended him enough, that employee has the right to sue the union - and force the union to…

Dumb response.

Ford exports more vehicles than they import. Honda can’t claim that. So what if Ford imports a Fusion from Mexico when they’re exporting F-150s and Explorers and Mustangs, etc - more than offsetting the imports.

Who gives a $$@# if things got awkward for Nikki Haley?

She voluntarily chose to work for the POS.

And she’s also the POS who has said she would rather have her citizens go without jobs than to have a company enter her state with a unionized workforce.

Hey dumbass - follow the thread... we were talking about people getting slammed in the loony bin for making outrageous claims.  Not advocating someone getting locked up.  

So none then.

JD Power sells the rights to use their awards in advertisements, but there has been ZERO evidence to ever support the claims that they award them to people who pay them enough.

HAH!

The Highlanders have very high failure rates (and not just a drip, but a significant leak).

And a Cummins leak never cost you $2000-3000 to fix. A Highlander WILL.

It’s a reference to the OP, dumbass...

“And I’d get slammed in the looney bin so fast.” 

Accord: No more expensive than a Camry ($22,751 for an LX vs $23,241 for a Camry LE)

Mazda: Slow? Not slower than a Camry. Loud? Not really. A little more engine noise on acceleration, but not unreasonable. Inefficient? Ok, lower mpg than the competition, but for most people that’s only a $100-200 annual fuel cost…

WTF about this is “communist”?

You do realize that the “study” you’re talking about is damned near pointless, right? They put an arbitrary cutoff on % domestic content, considering only vehicles above that mark, and consider sales numbers more important than content.

The first year they named the Camry the “most…

Proof?

Didn’t think so.

Always?

They’ve had significant oil leak problems from the timing cover on Highlanders.... MAJOR PITA to fix that one.

Yet if you look at CR data for subsystems, you find that the issues with Fords are almost entirely within infotainment, not powertrain.
