Le Retour du Ford Excursion | POURQUOI PAS !?TORQ PODCAST - Épisode 392

The Ford Ranger Super Duty is currently a fairy tale. Ford's PR team - doing what it does best: Selectively representing the truth about the Ranger Super Duty to the most domesticated car reviewers on the planet.The ones too timid, or otherwise incentivised not to ask any hard questions. Perhaps they just don't know what to ask. In any case, the official Ford-sanctioned reports so far are just a suck.Ranger Super Duty is going to be OK - too expensive, but OK. Meaning, not nearly as good at towing or load carrying as you've been led to believe. At this point, that's pretty obvious.I'm going to break that down for you, in this video, using (you know) facts.If you're thinking about buying a Super Duty Ranger, this report covers what you need to know. From someone who's not afraid to do ghetto engineering and actual journalism.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1008: Cars Commerce drops a no-nonsense playbook for dealers while Ford rolls out employee pricing for all as tariffs loom large. Meanwhile, Tesla's Q1 delivery miss raises red flags far beyond a Model Y changeover. Show Notes with links:In a sweeping trade policy shift, Donald Trump announced a baseline 10% tariff on all imports; plus an additional 10–50% "reciprocal" tariff targets 60 nations with major U.S. trade deficits.Auto imports already under last week's 25% tariff won't face increases and Mexico and Canada are exempt—if goods comply with the 2020 USMCA terms.Brian Kramer of Cars Commerce released a Tariff Playbook to help dealers navigate the changes. Here's some of the highlights:Consumers are rushing to buy and scrutinizing where vehicles are built—use the Cars.com American-Made Index to guide inventory and messaging.EVs could see a short-term slump; hybrids and full-size trucks may surge. Align your lot accordingly.Six actionable strategies: reduce auction dependency, boost service-lane sourcing, go data-driven, ditch 45-day-old metrics, market American-made units, and build an offense-focused plan.“You won't lose profit because the market adjusted. You will lose profit because your process didn't,”Ford is throwing open the gates to its employee discount program, offering deep savings to all customers through June 2 as a preemptive strike against rising costs from newly announced import tariffs.The “From America, For America” campaign unlocks A Plan pricing—typically below dealer invoice—on most Ford and Lincoln models, with high-performance Raptors, new Expeditions, Super Duty trucks, and Lincoln Navigators being excluded.Discounts stack with other deals, including extended free EV charger installation now running through June 30.The announcement came just hours after President Trump enacted 25% tariffs on imported vehicles, which could significantly increase consumer prices.Ford's imported models include the Maverick, Bronco Sport, Mustang Mach-E (from Mexico), and Lincoln Nautilus (from China). “It's a way to give back to the communities that have supported us for generations,” said Rob Kaffl, Ford's U.S. sales director, adding the move brings “certainty to an uncertain situation.”Tesla's Q1 2025 delivery numbers are in—and they've landed with a thud. The EV giant delivered 336,681 vehicles, missing expectations by up to 55,000 units and raising tough questions about demand.Deliveries fell 13% year-over-year and a sharp 32% from Q4 2024.Tesla cited Model Y factory changeovers as a factor, but analysts see deeper demand issues—especially in the U.S.Model 3 sales in Europe dropped 30% in early 2025, despite not facing supply issues.“The ramp of the New Model Y contiJoin hosts Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Shoot us a Text.We're excited to get into this Wednesday with guest host Elena Ciccotelli of the EVs for Everyone podcast. Today, we're covering Toyota's battery investment in the US and China, the future of GM's Cruise robotaxi program and how Ford is planning on integrating EVs with a gas-powered generator for extra range.Toyota is accelerating its electrification strategy in both the U.S. and China with a significant investment in battery production and a focus on hybrid vehicles.Toyota will begin producing batteries at its new North Carolina factory in April, initially for hybrid vehicles, before expanding to full EV production.The Liberty, N.C., plant will start with three battery lines for hybrids, adding a fourth soon after. By 2030, it aims for 30 GWh capacity.Toyota is launching a wholly-owned subsidiary in China to build Lexus EVs, with a Shanghai plant capable of producing 100,000 vehicles per year starting in 2027.Toyota CFO Yoichi Miyazaki emphasized the importance of hybrid vehicles, stating, “Demand for hybrid vehicles is quite strong in the United States… We will solidify our production by producing batteries for hybrid first.”The company is keeping a cautious eye on potential new tariffs from President Donald Trump, preparing by focusing on shorter product lead times and flexible strategies.Nearly 2 months after announcing they would no longer fund autonomous vehicle subsidiary Cruise, GM is officially shutting down its robotaxi operations, leading to mass layoffs including CEO Marc Whitten and several top executives.The layoffs impact nearly half of Cruise's 2,100 employees, with affected staff receiving severance and benefits through April and LinkedIn Premium for a year to assist with the job search.GM has now fully absorbed Cruise, ending its robotaxi ambitions to focus on its hands-free driving system, Super Cruise, and future autonomous consumer vehicles.The shutdown follows an October 2023 safety scandal where a Cruise robotaxi ran over and dragged a pedestrian, leading to permit suspensions in California.Cruise had been working on safety upgrades, including "Project Rhino," a sensor system aimed at preventing incidents like the 2023 crash.Ford is betting on Extended Range Electric Vehicles (EREVs)—EVs with a gas-powered generator for extra range. This move aligns with Ford's focus on meeting consumer demand for EV efficiency without sacrificing range.Ford's EREV models will include Super Duty trucks, the F-150, Expedition, Explorer, Bronco, and Maverick.CEO Jim Farley was reportedly impressed by the success of EREVs in China and sees them as an affordable, practical alternative to full EVs.Ford expects the EREV versions within two years, but also expect confusion as dealers and buyers adjust to yet another drivetrain option.Finally, our editor friends at Cars.com released their ‘best of 2025” awards today and since we're talking EVs, let's talk about the 2025 Kia EV9Hosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email

Shoot us a Text.As another week comes to a close, we're grateful for the auto industry. Today we're covering how inflation is affecting repos, how demand is affecting Ford's production plans and how iPhones and Androids might finally get along.Show Notes with linksAuto repossessions are up 23% in the first half of 2024, surpassing pre-pandemic levels and indicating financial stress among consumers as interest rates and inflation strain household budgets.Vehicle seizures decreased during the pandemic due to leniency and stimulus checks, but have now surged back, with repos increasing 14% compared to 2019.Subprime auto borrowers are struggling, with 5.62% at least 60 days late on payments in June.Average interest rates: 7.3% for new cars, 11.5% for used cars; monthly payments average $739 for new and $549 for used, according to EdmundsRelief might come later this year, with some anticipating the Fed lowering interest rates in September, allowing the opportunity for refinancing and new buyers.Jeremy Robb, senior director of economic and industry insights at Cox Automotive summed it up: “I think a lot of consumers are really waiting to see if interest rates come down a little. That's kept a lot of people on the sidelines.” Ford Motor Company again has slowed down its EV plans, repurposing its Canadian Oakville Assembly plant to build larger gasoline-powered F-Series trucks, delaying the launch of three-row electric SUVs.The Oakville facility will now add capacity for 100,000 F-Series Super Duty trucks.“Super Duty is a vital tool for businesses and people around the world, and, even with our Kentucky Truck Plant and Ohio Assembly Plant running flat out, we can't meet the demand,” said Ford CEO Jim Farley.Ford lost nearly $4.7 billion on its EV business in 2023, with projected losses up to $5.5 billion this year.The company plans to invest about $3 billion to expand Super Duty production, securing 1,800 jobs at Oakville and adding about 220 jobs at engine and component plants.Apple's iOS 18 finally brings RCS support to iPhones, significantly improving messaging between iPhone and Android users. Photos are now high-resolution, ending the era of blurry, tiny images.iOS 18, currently in Beta but available on iPhone, includes homescreen customization, Siri improvements, and revamped Photos app.Apple added RCS (Rich Communication Services) support as a minor feature,  this comes after years of Apple refusing to bow to pressure to adopt the messaging standard.RCS improves messaging with features like typing indicators, read receipts, and high-res media.The green bubble persists with Android users, and Apple's RCS implementation lacks encryption.Hosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email

The towing and torque wars are here, and we're all in the trenches. Ford unleashed an updated PowerStroke diesel in 2020 and moved the production-grade heavy-duty diesel world into four figures worth of torque. Naturally, Ram punched back with a more potent Cummins that sent 1,075 lb-ft worth of torque to the driveline. Well, for '23 Ford stuffed a high-output version of its PowerStroke diesel under the hood of its revamped Super Duty trucks and pushed the torque figure to the moon. The star of the latest-generation Super Duty's show is that high-output, 6.7-liter PowerStroke V8 that sends 500 hp and 1,200 lb-ft of torque through a 10-speed automatic transmission and to the rear or all four wheels. In a special configuration, this latest Super Duty rig packs enough muscle to tug 40,000 pounds. On this episode of Quick Spin, Autoweek's executive editor Tom Murphy climbs behind the wheel of the 2023 Ford F-250 Super Duty and puts it through its paces. Murphy takes you on a guided tour of the F-250 Super Duty and highlights some of his favorite features. Later in the show, Murphy takes you along for a live drive review of this 1,200 lb-ft torque machine. Adding to those segments, Murphy chats with host Wesley Wren about the latest F-250, its engine, and more. Closing the show, the pair break down what makes the 2023 Ford F-250 Super Duty special.

On Tuesday, February 6th, 2024, Ford Motor Company announced its latest earnings. The company's CEO, Jim Farley, stated during the call, "Last year was a foundational year for our company. The impact of choices made regarding power and powertrains is evident, particularly for the F-Series. Our global hybrid sales increased 20% last year, and we project a further 40% increase this year. In the U.S., we're the number one and two best-selling hybrid trucks, with Maverick taking the lead, making us the third top hybrid brand behind Toyota and Honda." Farley also spotlighted the company's progress with their technology, mentioning, "BlueCruise has surpassed 150 million miles of hands-free use, with quarter-over-quarter growth up by 25%, and the gross margins for both BlueCruise and Ford Pro Intelligence are at 70%-plus." He acknowledged the firm's success in work vehicle production, specifically the new Super Duty, Transit, and Ranger models. In 2023, Ford saw an 11% rise in revenue, reaching an adjusted EBIT of $10.4 billion. The company also presented a healthy financial state with nearly $29 billion in cash reserves and over $46 billion in liquidity, demonstrating its resilience against potential market uncertainties. In 2023, the standout was the Ford Pro division, which includes both hardware and software services. It achieved a doubling of EBIT to $7 billion, attributed to steady demand, a desirable product mix, and a focus on profitability. Farley discussed the division's potential, saying, "This is a robust profitability; we've never had 20% attach rates, 0.5 million units of software with 50% margins. We are only just beginning to concentrate on Pro aftersales, where 20% of the profit is coming from attached services." The earnings call indicated a customer preference towards environmentally friendly and fuel-efficient options, as seen in the strong sales of Ford's hybrid vehicles. Consumer interest in advanced technology and digital connectivity in vehicles is also evident in the popularity of Ford's services such as BlueCruise and Ford Pro Intelligence. Although Ford did not reveal specific future plans or investments, its financial results confirmed the company's dedication to fiscal discipline, shareholder returns, quality improvements, and further development of the Ford Pro business segment. Ford is looking at profitability and cost reduction, with a particular interest in the electric vehicle sector. However, while the company appears to be heading in a positive direction, future prospects can only be ascertained through action and results. For more comprehensive details regarding Ford's strategic direction and future initiatives, refer to the full earnings call transcript or other public company materials.

It's Thursday and Paul and Kyle are live on the ground in Miami Florida for the annual NAMAD Members Meeting. We grab new president Perry Watson IV for a quick chat, then also talk about the latest strike target, as well as the growing use of gigapresses in manufacturing as other OEM's take a page out of Tesla's playbook.Show Notes with links:“You just lost Kentucky Truck Plant”. Those were the final words of Wednesday night's negotiation meeting between UAW and Ford negotiating teams which included UAW President Shawn Fein. According to those close to the matter, the UAW informed Ford that they wanted to see a new counter offer by Ford on economics by 5pm. When they met and Ford didn't have an updated offer, Fein stood up and said, “If this is all you have for us, our members' lives and my handshake are worth more than this. This just cost you the Kentucky Truck Plant.”Ford labeled the union's decision as "grossly irresponsible" and mentioned they had already provided an "outstanding offer". The company also indicated that the strike would jeopardize many other jobs and facilities.Ford's Super Duty truck line holds immense significance for the company. The vehicle line alone generates more revenue than major corporations like Southwest Airlines, Marriott International, and Nordstrom did in 2021. It also accounts for over half of the market in commercial segments, including utility, mining, construction, and emergency response vehicles.With the addition of this plant, there are now over 34k workers on strikeItalian aluminum casting machine maker, IDRA, known for supplying Tesla's innovative 'gigapresses', has expanded its customer base to include Ford and Hyundai. As carmakers increasingly explore this advanced manufacturing technique, IDRA is also nearing a significant deal with a premium European automaker, signaling a shift in vehicle production methods.Gigapresses create larger vehicle parts, streamlining production by reducing assembly steps. This enhances efficiency, cuts labor costs, and potentially improves structural integrity by minimizing joints and seams.A 'gigapress 6,100' with Ford's branding and IDRA's largest press, the 9,000, are being tested, with the latter set to be shipped to Hyundai for R&D.IDRA has already shipped 14 presses to Tesla, including two 9,000 ones for Tesla's large cybertruck production at its Austin plant, Texas, according to sources and posts by Tesla on social media.Six gigapresses are now emerging as the standard for an annual production of 500,000 vehicles, one source added.ASOTU's coverage of NAMAD is brought to you by TrueCarHosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email ASOTU Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/automotivestateoftheunion

We're a week away from day one of ASOTU CON as we give a UAW strike update, talk about Trump's coming comments on the dispute, as well as iconic boot maker, Doc Martin's, foray into the repair and resale market.As the deadlock continues, UAW President Shawn Fain warns of an escalating strike against the Detroit 3, encompassing General Motors, Ford, and Stellantis, unless significant progress is made in negotiations by Friday. Now, a potential dual strike threat facing Ford in the U.S. and Canada.UAW President Shawn Fain announced, "If we don't make serious progress by noon on Friday, Sept. 22, more locals will be called on to stand up and join the strike," indicating the potential for an expanded strike against the Detroit 3 if negotiations don't progress satisfactorily.Stellantis, in a statement, emphasized a constructive discussion with UAW, highlighting their aim "to find common ground to reach an agreement that provides a bridge to the future." They are especially focused on resolving issues around their Belvidere Assembly Plant in Illinois, which has been inactive since February.Meanwhile, Ford is navigating the threat of simultaneous strikes in the U.S. and Canada. A potential strike in Canada could impact 5,600 workers and significantly disrupt U.S. operations, especially concerning the V-8 engines that power Ford's Super Duty pickups, F-150s, and MustangAfter Joe Biden weighed in on the strike last Friday, saying that the big three haven't appropriately shared profits with workers, former President Donald Trump is planning on taking a crack at it as well. Trump is planning on skipping the second Republican presidential debate to address union workers in Detroit on Sept. 27 to focus on the negative aspects of Biden's EV policy.The speech to Detroit auto workers and blue-collar union members is part of Trump's intensified campaign to reclaim the support of working-class voters who sided with Biden in 2020. While Biden has long championed union support, some auto workers feel he hasn't sufficiently confronted manufacturers over large industry profits; Trump aims to capitalize on this discontent, asserting he'll stand with union members if re-elected president.London based boot maker, Dr Martens plans to launch a shoe repair service in Britain to boost its sustainability efforts, encourage customers to prolong the lifespan of their footwear, and introduce an additional source of income.Dr Martens is teaming up with The Boot Repair Company in Leeds to provide repairs.  A full repair, such as a sole replacement, is priced at 81 pounds ($100.50), compared to 169 pounds ($209.68) for new 1460 model boots.CEO Kenny Wilson highlights that while this might decrease new boot sales, it will foster custHosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email ASOTU Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/automotivestateoftheunion

Typically you hear the Unnamed Automotive Podcast discuss the latest and greatest new cars, which are loaded to the brim with all the features you can think of. But this week, your hosts have their chance to drive some lesser equipped vehicles, which allow for some thorough testing. First up Sami talks about his time in the 2023 Mercedes Benz GLC 300, which has been updated to a level that should satisfy even the most skeptical Mercedes fan. But the GLC has a few fatal flaws, namely with its infotainment system that Sami says can ruin the whole experience. Then Benjamin gets his hands on a relatively no frills version of the 2023 Ford F-250. Towing with the heavy duty truck proves to be no problem, but Benjamin has a few more notes to share about this truck and whether a HD will work for your load or not. He also gives a fun update on tracking his Datsun Z over at Watkins Glen raceway, which put a huge smile on his face. Is this a world class track? You let us know by sending us an email or message on social media! Thanks for listening!
