Ford Motor Co. and General Motors

[Major Tom]

Ford contributed 6.8 million dollars to BLM! Not to be outdone, General Motors contributed 10 million! Now you know why new auto prices are thru the roof!

[togor]

why not? A lot of blacks stayed loyal to Detroit nameplates when so many others switched to imports.

$4/car, not exactly through the roof.

F should spend more money on quality control.

Togor how do you figure $4 a car..

[dryheat]

Have you noticed now all the reporters who are at home have a BLM poster or book in the background? I just unsubscribed a Utube channel that I used to like for just that reason.

it's called math,
but works only if Ford made 1,700,000 vehicles

Priced a new loaded pickup lately? $60,000 and up!

Maybe Patrisse can buy some more million dollar properties with the Ford and GM donations.

Didn't look at Ford #'s. I've owned a couple Ford's, an F-150 and a Thunderbird, both 80's vintage. I bought the Thunderbird off of my sister and her husband for $200 as a winter beater and what do you know if it doesn't have a bad head gasket and coolant in the crankcase. So yeah it got through the winter and then I junked it. The F-150 did stay in the game until underbody rust took it. V8 with a manual 4 and a transfer case with manual hubs. That was an outstanding snow truck but came at the end of the carburator era.

so explain the $4,,,

GM:

$10M divided by 2.5M vehicles = $4/vehicle

Using 2020 production #s

Didn't do Ford, leave that for someone else.
