To mark the nation’s 250 years, we did a series of iconic brand stories. Here’s a history of Ford Motor and how it contributed to the nation over those decades. @USATODAY @usatodaycars @Ford @jimfarley98 @freepautos @freep @UAW @GM @StellantisNA @mtbarra https://t.co/70qNubxUcx

Only one automaker decided to reveal anything at the Detroit auto show this year. Meet the @Ford Bronco RTR, meant to offer Raptor-like performance for less money.

[Jamie LaReau @jlareauan]

The cost to change its business plan is doable for @Ford now, but long run here’s the impact on it and the industry.

How EVs and AI are changing training paths for next-gen autoworkers. Props to @washtenawcc @Toyota and partners for the work they are doing. https://t.co/jg8a5ZImyV via @freep @jccharniga

New, from @jccharniga: General Motors's net income plummeted in the second quarter of the year -- dropping $1.1 billion.

Why? Tariffs.

The Detroit automaker anticipates losing as much as $5 billion due to tariffs https://t.co/5FrRGWl2Jo via @freep

For @AP_Climate: The Republican megabill headed to Trump supports oil, coal and gas - largely driving Earth’s warming and increasingly deadly and costly extreme weather - while slashing tax credits for clean technologies including wind and solar energy.

Car payments rise as do the length of loans…as more car buyers struggle with affordability. A record number agreed to $1,000 a month. @freep @freepautos @USATODAY @GM @Ford @StellantisNA @UAW @jimfarley98 @mtbarra https://t.co/U8qgT2es39

The @UAW monitor's report details an atmosphere of pettiness around Pres. @ShawnFainUAW and details of internal drama. See story @freep broke. @freepautos @Ford @GM @StellantisNA @mtbarra @jimfarley98 @DetroitReporter @UniforTheUnion https://t.co/nLD8EDSx4h

[Glenn Stevens @glennrstevens]

Haven’t seen shifts and changes in this industry like this perhaps ever. From all EVs in Orion to all ICE and production shifting back to Michigan. Today was a good day.

Tariffs eat profits.
Tariffs increase costs.
Tariffs paralyze development.
Tariffs decrease US/CN/MX competitiveness.
