Ford Motor Co. is the most “quintessentially American brand” according to results of a new survey, a moniker that has prompted Executive Chair Bill Ford to call for Americans to put aside their differences and unite to help build a stronger future.
His request comes following a survey — called “America 250” in honor of the 250 years since the country’s birth — that found Ford is America’s most recognized brand equally by Democrats and Republicans as well as across all income levels.
“We are still America’s number one auto producer and a top employer,” Bill Ford said in an emailed statement to the Detroit Free Press. “As we look to the next 250 years, I believe the future is incredibly bright, but it hinges on us coming together as a nation. We must heal our divisions and keep pushing forward, just as we always have. Ford will be there, serving the nation and helping to build a stronger future.”
