UPDATE: The reveal of the all-new Ford Bronco lineup will now happen on Monday, July 13. The previous targeted date of July 9 unintentionally coincided with O.J. Simpson’s birthday. We wanted to be sensitive and respectful of this concern.

No doubt the vibe is funky in that “makeshift tent,” but it’s not bad either across the street at the #FordRouge plant where a high quality, high-tech F-150 rolls off the line every 53 seconds like clockwork. Come check it out @elonmusk #BuiltFordTough

“I think there’s a good vibe—I think the energy is good; go to Ford, it looks like a morgue.” Elon Musk, in an exclusive interview, and on his third day sleeping in the factory, was upbeat in “production hell” but concedes to mistakes.
