Ford Motor Company sales decreased 21 percent to 149,931 units during November of 2020 in the United States. Sales decreased at both of FoMoCo brands – Ford and Lincoln.
“Super Duty sales produced a strong gain in November with sales up 7.5 percent. F-150 inventory continued to tighten as we moved through our Q4 changeover to the all-new F-150,” said Mark LaNeve, Ford vice president, U.S. Marketing, Sales and Service. “This was a result of coronavirus-related production stoppages in Q2 and a strong sell down of the current model F-150. Dealers are really looking forward to the 2021 F-150, which is now in transit, as well as Bronco Sport and the all-new Mustang Mach-E,” he added.

Crappy quality has consequences. Gee, couldn’t happen to a nicer company so they get what they deserve. 🙂
Honda was down just as much, and Genesis was much worse.
Oh, and kinda odd that the vehicle Consumer Reports said had the worst quality, had the biggest sales gain!
Lack of F-150s due to the change for 2021 made a big impact on sales.
Once there are morei n the supply chain, the sales will be back strong again.
Discontinued models are running low on inventory, and new models are just getting started.
There were also less selling days in November 2020 vs 2019.
It’s amazing how some people wish bad luck on American auto companies. Good luck to Ford and GM in 2021. My 2004 f150 is still on the road with engine,rear end, transmission still running strong 182,000 miles. My next truck will be 2021 American. 😆
I don’t wish bad luck on American auto companies, I’m 63 and have never owned a foreign car, however I prefer sedans over P/Us, SUVs and CUVs, well this company does not know how to build and sell sedans profitably and I wish they replace the current management with one that knows how to build and sell sedans profitably, I used to own Ford sedans for 30 years and enjoyed them all. I currently own a 2018 Dodge Charger GT Plus. I hope FCAU and GM don’t make the same mistake this company did, or my next automobile will be a foreign make.
You have to remember that while TOYOTA is long known as a Japanese builder, most of their products that are sold here are built here. For me if I had to buy a new sedan right now, the CHRYSLER 300 would be first and TOYOTA AVALAN second.
The CHARGER is a nice car but I wouldn’t get one since they no longer offer the standard model only sporty packages. I like soft and quiet hence the 300.
In 2010, I rented a Chrysler 300 Touring model for 2 weeks and drove it 3,000 miles, and I enjoyed every mile, the bad news is unlike the Charger, you cannot lease the 300, I would not mind owning a 300.
I own a FORD product a 2004 MERCURY GRAND MARQUIS. 193k from new and that engine still runs like a Swiss watch. The car itself still rides like a million dollars. So I was a FORD man. However they stopped building my car and the CROWN VICTORIA twin and TOWN CAR cousin. Then the TAURUS which I thought was a smooth and comfortable car was discountinued then shortly later the beautiful CONTINENTAL. So FORD does it to themselves when they don’t build what I want when the time comes. Then they build these crossovers and SUVs that are crap. They deserve to be blasted until they get their stuff together. No problem I’ll just buy from whoever.
So only 1,362 Navigators were sold in Nov 2020, and only 12,958 units sold thru Nov 30, 2020, and yet this company claims this overpriced rebadged Ford is profitable. The company that does not know how to build and sell sedans profitably is being less truthful.
