Ford is chasing :melon-musk: 's business model and doing an end-run around their hordes of loyal car dealership minions. Blood in the fucking water.

    What the fuck?? I know a lot of it is probably PR but this sounds like they want to poach Tesla employees.

      It'll be funny seeing Musk try to go up against actual capitalists.

      Ford is going to bend him over their lap lmao

      Crypto and car dealerships seem like the next petite boojies on the chopping block, Musk being the amalgamation of the two while also being the richest guy in the world is going to be quite the fall

      Its part PR no doubt, but a bunch of companies are investing in ohio right now, including Intel.

      Idk, maybe ford just cracked the code that in order to sell cars, people need to afford cars, and that a destitute service economy is worse for their bottom line.

        Ford desperately trying to figure out how to make people able to afford cars is hilarious when their entire origin myth is Henry Ford doing that
