Ford Motor Co (F.N) Executive Chairman Bill Ford Jr. said on Wednesday he has met with Donald Trump to talk about the Republican presidential candidate's extensive criticism of the automaker's investments in Mexico.
Ford told the Economic Club of Washington that he thought Trump's criticism of the No. 2 automaker's foreign investments were "infuriating and "frustrating" because of the company's extensive investments and employment in the United States. Trump has threatened if elected to impose hefty tariffs on Ford imports from Mexico.
Ford told reporters after the event that the session with Trump was a "great meeting" that took place a few months ago....

Hey Ford, bite me, your cars suck.
Meeting couple months ago?
Trump is hammering Ford right now in his NV speech.
The GT350 is very nice. Drive one.
Incuriating how, exactly?
Infuriatingly true?
“...because of the company’s extensive investments and employment in the United States.”
You’re AN AMERICAN COMPANY, numbskull!
Have Ford contact Kodak about doing business in Mexico
The Mexicans can't even follow directions, even in Spanish.
Kodak had to open each blister pack of cameras because the Mexicans put the camera batteries in backwards, and didn't work until changed and reversed by the U.S. workers.
Can you imagine a Ford vehicle that works like a "Yugo" ?
The new president, trumpsplaining how it’s gonna be...
Hey, Bill, your aluminum truck bed sucks. Fix your own problems with your quarterly sales numbers down 8%. Trump really doesn’t need your unsolicited advice as you trot down to Mexico to make your sub-par cars.
I have a 2015 Fusion. It has 33000 miles. It already rattles more than my manager’s 15 year old Honda Accord with 325,000 miles.
Nope
And Bill, your football team sucks.
I have no problem with Ford CEO meeting with Trump since Ford is into manufacturing and can explain exactly why regulations, taxes and unions are forcing all manufacturing out of the US. Maybe talking to Trump about what needs to be changed so these businesses can stay is a smart move!
Why is Trump hammering Ford?
You know, the company that DIDN’T take huge sums of taxpayer money for a bailout and screw their investors in favor of the Unions?
No have a Toyota, Nissan and Subaru, I've had no problems in 3 years other than new tires.
One of our neighbors is in home construction business. Went to work one Monday and his boss told him he had a brand new crew to supervise - they were all Mexican, spoke very little English and reading skills in any language were zero. He walked off the job. Said one of the drywall guys, who is an American, told him the new crew installed all the windows upside down and backwards because they couldn’t read or understand the directions.
High cost of cheap labor.
Not any that I have and do own.
Mr. Bill, learn to kiss the new boss’ butt if you know what’s good for you.
The Fed will be audited and when it is, we will know how those $2,500,000,000 USD of digitally created dollars were originated and transferred to Citibank, then to Banamex in Mexico City (which is Citibank) where it was loaned at zero interest on behalf of your sad company to build a plant in Veracruz after being used to buy $1,000,000,000 USD in Mexican government bonds as a payoff to corrupt officials in Mexico.
It’s part of the globalist plan to make America poor like everyone else while elevating Los Mexicanos so that your sad company can extract enormous profits on cheap labor without ever having spent a dime of your company’s own money.
Oh, and have a good time expanding into Mexico on Fed created nothingness. But you will pay through the nose back here stateside as well as anywhere else you try to market Mexican build Ford vehicles. You will understand what it means to be an international pariah everywhere you go because Americans still hold sway over international trade agreements. So I repeat, you better get up to speed on being a butt kisser of all Americans represented by Donald J. Trump and you better do it fast.
Hitler's armies moved in Ford trucks. (The German owned truck plants were bombed flat by the Americans, but the Ford plant kept churning them out until the First Army reached the Rhine in March, 1945. Production then halted for a couple of months, resuming in May, 1945.) Ford also supplied key components for the V-2 rockets.
