GIVING CREDIT TO #FORD (@jimfarley98 so should you!)
Ford's CEO recently discussed various inefficiencies in procuring Mach-E. For example, needlessly-long wiring and hosing
However, this isn't a fault. THIS IS FINE and a CREDIT to previous management
People tend to forget

People forget that Ford developed the Mach-E skunkworks style, in a single year by the small "Team Edison"
👏👏FORD WORKED AGILE👏👏 They did NOT try to get everything right, just make a good-enough car fast enough, hitch onto the learning curve and start sliding wright's law

That being considered, #MachE is a phenomenal achievement
It's better than ICE SUVs, Munro4 says is just $1500 more costly to make than the Tesla Model Y (though years and versions may vary) and lessons gained already found their way into the #F150 #Lightning

So sure, Ford has some way to go, and Sure the Mach-E even has low hanging fruit
But rushing it out was an ACHIEVEMENT not a fail
👏 Mark Fields
And what I DON'T see after Mark left is CONTINUOUS ITERATION.
Don't drop the ball, @jimfarley98, KEEP FORD "MODEL E" AGILE!💪🙏

As example of WHY rushing it to market was the RIGHT THING to do, look no further than GM, which penned detailed designs for a million cars but are slowly starting to roll them out with obsolete tech
Ford was much smarter. I'm a Tesla fan, but Rooting for them!
