Ford better get their quality figured out asap instead of the worrying about who's behind the wheel. Trucks sales are down and Lincoln sales is a dumpster fire waiting to blow up while Farely gets a big fat bonus when in reality he should get the boot.

Heck, Honda is loosing their hat. No way would I want to be a CEO in today's 'disrupted' automotive industry.

Yeah I agree on the phone thing. Maybe make them only operable at a certain speed through apps like car play.

More dangerous than drinking and driving (and i dont drink).
