Comments
A normal day at Recall Motors aka Ford Motor Company, with quality control issues permanent at Ford thanks to Failure Farley and Ford’s stock price dropping daily, it’s now at $9.20/share, 27.83% lower than it was a year ago today, it’s time for the Ford family to replace Failure Farley unless they are okay with Ford’s stock price dropping below $8.00/share along with permanent quality control issues.
