It is good to see Mr Mulally again, I worked at Boeing the same time as him on the 777 program. I happened to to be a Ford man ,couldn't ask for a better person to run the company
Mulally was great for Ford. But it's a shame he didn't get the CEO job at Boeing. Instead Boeing got Jim McNerney who couldn't care less about anything other than stock price and quarterly earnings, and the employees be damned.
Same as me, Fred, I loved him as the President of Boeing Commercial. He should have been CEO.
Ford needs him again!!!
Glad I stumbled onto this interview. Alan has been a long time friend of the family beginning with my sister who was his engineering aide when he started at Boeing. Brilliant man and never acted like he knew everything. When he didn't know he would be honest about it, but would promise to find out
He seems like a classy, genuine guy with good people skills.
I met this icon once when he was in India before moving on from Ford. What a superhuman 🙏
thats how Henry Ford attracted workers. Good conditions, good pay, and rights for the individual worker. He wanted his own workers to not only buy the cars they were making, but to also be proud of their creations
I just can't stop looking at that GT40, man what a good looking car.
Awesome. A class act. I have always loved A true American Icon. Henry was a true legend in my book. Glad to hear they are doing so well. They took zero money from the govn't during the auto bailouts. Big ups to you Ford.
Alan Mulally was the exact person Ford needed to turn it around. He brought the idea that made the 777 so successful, "Working Together", to Ford and that shows no better than at the meeting with the colored charts. The managers were so afraid to tell what was actually going on that made everything green, when that one brave manager put his red and Mulally started clapping, the other managers thought that was the signal for the goons to come haul him away because he was fired, but instead opened the doors for no one to be afraid to ask for help because everyone was there as one team. Sadly the Working Together theme wasn't repeated on many more Boeing aircraft and it shows. One part of Working Together was the main requirement to always think of the customer when making a decision. Many years after the first 777 was delivered, the planes flew with the words "Working Together" painted on the side of every one delivered.
Jay needs to keep the Ford GT out of the shot, I'm finding it hard to focus on what they're saying with that beast in the background.
mikemoair mikemoair You're doing it right in my book
Nickolas Little how funny ... I need to rewind a few times due to lose my mind looking that GT40, then I read your comment I thought it was really spot on .... well said !
YOU'RE RIGHT. I COULD HARDLY LISTEN TO THIS IMPORTANT INTERVIEW MY SELF. I KEPT STARING AT THE LEGENDARY PHENOMENAL MONSTER IN THE BACKGROUND. NICE THOUGHT . I AGREED.
Zissou Moonshot Z06!
True leader.
Get ALL involved and not just the accountants.
Even if you hate Ford or just don't appreciate cars, this video still has a lot of meaning and many lessons to take away from it. Many businesses and corporations could learn a lot from Ford's history.
As a Boeing employee, I can say this: 'we miss you Alan and especially now, we could use your wisdom and guidance."
2020 here. In what sort of trouble was Boeing back then ? 😂😂😂
@@Peter1Europe 2023 here… and why does Boeing still find itself in trouble :(
@@Peter1Europe 2024 here, and Boeing even went to more trouble
These days, Mulally is thanking the stars above he is not at Boeing...
Boeing needs him back
I love fords I hope their company stays strong. Go America!
Avatarblackwolf Wrong.
Lol built in Mexico
You must not have owned the 5.4L that they screwed there customers over with..Want a dependable truck..Chevy, i own a f150 and theres no comparing to the chevy 6.0L! really theres not! wether you hate chevy or not have to give credit were it is do!
@@martybrowning6702 they haven't made the 5.4 in 8 yrs .I have had 2 with the echoboost they are great my 2012 150 miles no problems .and I have a 2018 18 thousand miles no problems. I know it's not many miles but they say most problems will occur in the first 5000 miles.
Allan Mullaly was already talking about vehicle to grid charging back in 2014....he knew the future. He should still be leading Ford...
Jay's garage floor is cleaner than some people's kitchen floor! I love the idea that focusing on 1 brand is the key to quality & sustainability - Ford FOCUS! No pun intended. Great work Mr. Allan Mulally! You're so steady, & smart. Dag you're smart! Great personable & smart guy!
Among the multiple things I like about Jay Leno is his appreciation for Ford products as I see too many famous people look down their noses at Fords and only think about GM products.
It’s all about the leader. You can have the best product in the world but suffer from bad leadership and totally fail anyway. Seeing this makes me happy.
Wow, great interview. Allan Mulally seems like a really nice, smart, down-to-earth man. I'm proud I've owned only Ford vehicles.
Built FORD Tough!
I am just captivated by his show as it's so remarkable - fun, easy to watch, lots of laughs and great information and insights about cars, yes, but especially as he applies technologies like 3D printing.
I am so glad you brought this story to us!
Alan Mullaly is probably the best leader of a company in the world right now. Ford employees are so loyal to him and to Ford, and that's something GM employees don't have for thier CEO. Just look at how many people have left GM.
I want jay to bring in Christian von koenigsegg and interview him and look at the agera r/ s
thanks Jay for doing this interview shows how hard ford has worked to come back from the grave and your understanding of whats going on in the car world my dad was a ford guy to .
That was a really great episode, great minds talking it up and sharing their knowledge and thought process with us. I'm liking Ford more and more now
...just finished this book. Jay's right; it's an awesome read. And an amazing peek into the incredible turnaround to Ford...
What a great interview!
Alan Mulally is so brilliant and well spoken. CEO's deserve all of the money their paid!
Lol! he deserves the same amount of money that the people in the factories are being paid since it's a team effort.
Yeah, you're 150 years late though. Communism is dead.
+Eamon Hillis I don't think you get, it's okay if you're a little slow.
Even if every employee gave 10 cents of their pay stub, or 1% of the salary workers he would still make well into the 200k a year mark. But since it profits into the BILLIONS I think his small percentage of pay he gets for making big executive decisions is fair. Try and get the guy putting a jig onto a wheel to place a torque gun onto it and press a button to run a multi billion dollar company, won't end well.
Don't forget that CEO's don't really pay taxes the same way normal people do))) They get paid in bonuses, stock and options. This means that they only pay 15% capital gains tax, no matter how many tens of millions they make. The rest of us have to pay progressive tax. So, yes, they are way overpaid
love jay leno's garage.
Jay Leno worked for everybody when he was a kid, lol
Ahahahahaahahahah so funny that :D
thats how he affords all his cars
He was a kid for a looooong time.
Notice,,,,, you said "worked" for. That's why he's so successful today!
I have a 2010 ford ranger pickup 4+4 . And it’s amazing.. now 121,000 miles and I did nothing but change the oil as it should be . But it’s great . ice cold air conditioning. Super heat when it’s cold . no body rot . It’s still it drives sweet. Oh I was a life time Chevy guy but they all rotted in the ground before my last car payment .
Jay! You should do another sit down with a CEO for 2020. Would be great to see somewhat of an update directly from a company such as Ford.
I love FORD!!! May God continue to bless this company!!!!!!
I'm a GM man but Ford had the best CEO in bill ! They have lost track again! Ford ranger a rebirth as a 39 grand working man's entry truck? Hope they do better with bronco!! It's looking good so far!!
very nice car in the world.ford car is a ston-brokan .I used Ford car like feel good.salyut to Alan and Hendry Ford.🙏🙏👍👍
Jay is interviewing my automotive HERO….
One of the best car shows on youtube!!
This guy should inspire much more managers around the world...
I am proud of you guys Jay. Your Ford Gt is AWESOME. I cannot thank God enough for my beautiful friends. Your F1 is BEAUTIFUL too Jay. All of your cars are beautiful.
the Ford GT is probably the best looking car in history.
Certainly in the Top Five of all time. Such comparisons are often a matter of taste and it's reasonable to suggest there have been some other magnificent looking cars by other manufacturers, but there can be no denying the Ford GT is right up there among the very best, no doubts. A stunning looking car.
My vote is the 1971-1972 240Z
@@ivanjulian2532 For functionality and practicability the 55 chevy blows it's light weight doors completely off.
@@grex1242 whenever I hear someone use the term "blows it's doors off" I know I'm listening to someone not worth listening to.
Would love to see the Ranger back in the US. They are great trucks and a revamped Ranger would be a top seller no doubt.
My '86 was an awesome little truck, sold it at 204k miles 8 years ago and it's still in use today as a ranch rig. My '06 is sitting just shy of 150k and literally runs like new. It's the Swiss Army knife of the car/truck world and unkillable as long as you somewhat take care of them. Too bad newer trucks keep having to get larger, uglier, and more expensive.
I would love to see a Ranger platform with a small, efficient turbo diesel capable of 50+mpg. Not everyone needs a soot belching dually, able to tow a house, with enough hp and torque to compensate for even the smallest of things. Most really just need a pick-up for the occasional trip to the big box store. Listen up American manufacturers.
The problem is that we like our vehicles to be needlessly large. Even the new Subarus are the size of an original Ford Explorer. One of my co-workers has a Tacoma (around '07, I think) and it's bigger than my friend's '93 F--150. The last year the Ranger was in production they only sold something like 76k of them, vs. over half a million F-150s. I've looked at maybe buying a new F-150 with the base V6 but they're just so big and impractical.
+Travis Jones they can do so much with the ranger if they brought it back I see can see a mini ford raptor with the Eco boost v6 or a turbo diesel like you said all in the ranger package with the locking diffs and fox shocks
The Brnco is coming back soon 2020..
Thank you, truer words are hard to come by.
Great interview
great interview tks Jay
Love The GT and yet I agree,the Pantera is sweet love the flared out look on it to.
Again GT is a Beast.
I love the way the 2013 Fusion looks. I want one! XD
Great read. Highly recommend it.
COME BACK TO FORD Mr. Mulally!!!!! Save my gorgeous
Fusions and Tauruses PLEASE!
Yeah. Sadly Ford is struggling again. Mismanagement and several CEOs resigned after Mulally's exit at Ford.
Mirin' that red GT in the background :O
Damn that GT is one of my all time favorite car designs.
Mr. Mulally is not only a great leader but it seems to be a very nice person.
A 2017 Ford GT is a car I would love to own. Anything is possible within reason. Nice video.
interesting to see some of Henry's ideas still very much appropriate today
I agree with you
Can you imagine how fast the ford gt would be if you install whipple or kenne bell supercharger on that 5.4l
I completely agree.
Jay hit the nail on the head with this one: 05:40
Look at that GT. That thing pulls up behind you and it just looks ALL BUSINESS. Love to own one someday.
I used to own a 1992 Holden Commodore VP and I had it right up until April 2011 last yr and it was my first and only car I have ever owned since I got my Probationary plates and was still driving it when I got my full-license and it was the best Commodore I've ever owned. Anyway, I'm not sure but I was told by a friend that the older Commodores used Nissan parts.
THANKS
This is an important interview. You should be able to get rid of that buzz in the audio by sampling a second and filtering it out.
Why is there a cable hanging from the hood of the Ford GT? I was looking for a Ford GT episode of Jay Leno's garage but sadly there is none..
@oneclickandclosed buzzing sound comes from the transformators in those big ass stadium lights lol
they were in trouble just prior to the crisis, and had their business already trimmed and streamlined when the collapse happened. So it kind of was a blessing!
I'm honestly sorry Ford cant make cars like the 67 Cobra, but that era has long passed and we've gotta live with it.
Ford builts the best cars greetings from germany
That coming from a German hehe, tho i do see alot of Fords over their.. Hello from N.Y..
Are you aware of how deep Ford is invested in Germany?
CrystalWhiteLX50 I wouldn't believe you but I used to date a German chick and her uncle, who works for Ford in Germany, breathes, eats, and sleeps FORD.
SO true - Ford is awesome!
Ford-Werke AG later Ford-Werke GmbH is what Ford is called in Europe and elsewhere in the world not called (English) North America and Australia. Although Ford Motor Company of Australia Limited doesn't produce anything in particular any longer.
Alan should teach Business Management 101
Great leadership!
I wish I could just sweep the floor in Jays Garage.
I'm a huge Leno fan, and even bigger Ford Panther platform fan. Jay, how would yo like it if your beloved "performance cars" started down the path to front wheel drive? Guess how I feel about the full size Fords, including Explorers, going to FWD? This has disgusted me like nothing else. Better marketing could have kept the Panther platform rolling for three more decades! The more I think about it, the more angry I get... But, thanks for all you do in preserving all these icons.
I fail to understand the benefit of front wheel drive anymore. Oh, shorter drive shaft to save a pound. The End. Personally, it's rwd, awd, or don't waste my time.
Fwd are useless in snow, too, and I can prove it with both my winter beaters so there goes that theory of them being awesome after a snowfall. -_-
To answer your question, the average consumers who don't know better would love the change to FWD Fords since they're eating up the Eco technology and there's so much emphasis on fuel savings... even for high performance cars... which is dumb because the way I see it, if you're in the market for a lot of power and $100k to spend, I doubt your primary concern is gas mileage. Look what happened to the new Ford GT - not everyone's happy about it being V6. It's rumored in the future there'd be a v8 option (which it should've been as an option to begin with!) and would've been fair.
I agree completely. They should do with that car what GM did with the Holden Commadore (Pontiac G8). Been following that car at the Australian V8 Supercars series. Great looking cars, and should be way more fun to drive then the Crown Vic.Come on Ford, bring it stateside.
Hit the refresh button, the magical thing about America is, when we need a New "Focus" we all come together as one team. Keeping us together may now be possible.
Its nice to see them bring some of the global models over. The Euro version of the Focus, and them bringing back the Mondeo (Fusion). They haven't done that since the Contour days. Now that the Crown Vic is dead, that should open the door for the Falcon. Gotta give Ford some respect in that they do build their cars here and not in Canada or Mexico like the other "domestic" brands. Plus with them never taking tax payer money for bailouts...my hat is off to them. Way to go guys.
Thank you Alan, for saving Ford.
I think the Ford GT is the most beautiful car Ford's ever made. Maybe the the most beautiful sports car ever made. It borrows the best aspects of the original and improves on it. The interior is wonderful too. It's nice to know that modern American cars can still be beautiful
Come on Jay, what the heck is that humming sound!!!
This guys should be running the country.
Agree with this. Mually was the CEO that saved that this nameplate & family brand.
from extinction coming from debt to fleet to retail than business corporate structure
He saved the nameplate by literally mortgaging the Blue Oval symbol as one of the assets used for collateral to get a $30B loan to refinance their debt.
So, the question is, are you ordering your GT40? will there be a J application video?
That could be fun to watch.
Cheers
Well thats pretty interesting. I should have refined my statement from earlier because I have never owned any ford product besides the F150s. I know that they are the lifeblood of Ford, regardless of what Alan Mullaly may say. They are the number one selling pickup in the USA and have held that title for a very long time. Manufactured in Kentucky, Arizona, and Michigan. In my opinion ford should keep everything in house just like they have done with the outstanding F150 line up.
The 67 Cobra wasn't made by ford, it was made by Carroll Shelby in partnership with ford
Jay has the clout to pull in just about anybody who is anybody in the car business to come and talk in his damn garage. These guys are busy and their time is literally money, just impressive.
Very interesting interview- regarding Ford i was watching some Eco-Boost trouble videos here on youtube, seems carbon builds up on the valve causing hesitation and i am talking low mileage vehicles
- They have tht sorted out, no issues
you should reinvent the crown vic I loved my 92
Ruger Rocker I feel like a dinosaur loving big sedans and not believing in these boxes with not much room
Loved my indestructible Town Car.
Since the 1970s, I've yearned for a plug-in gas electric hybrid. I wept for joy when Ford came out with the CMax Energi. After decades of being ignored in favor of horse power addicted Americans, it's so great to get what I want for a change.
It would be nice to see more American companies to care about their employees like they used to
Remember this is the guy that had the Ford Five Hundred changed into the Taurus(and the Montego into the Sable). That was smart thinking. If only Ford would just continue selling cars including the Mustang.
Car companies don't "lose money" . They just don't make the money they " projected". Companies aren't in business to lose money. When a CEO says they lost money ask them what they're bonus was this year.
Is there a video of the car w/drive ?
Why doesn't ford continue to build GTs? They are sweeeeeeet!!
it was to celebrate ford 100th birhday to show theire technological know how
and now it woudnt pass legislations.for example lights are to low
the questions is why wouldnt they resurect Detomaso Pantera as corvette rivall
***** I would like shelby cobra as corvette rival, more than detomaso :D
Ford GT is coming back in 2016, to celebrate the 50th anniversary of FORD GT 40 victory at lemans, Ford only makes a GT on special celebrations.
Part of the selling point of the Ford GT, like the Boss 302, is the fact that they promised it to be limited run to keep it collectable for the future. Had they continued to build more of them past the 2 years, they probably would have been hit with lawsuits...
Uriah Bleue
Some of the rumors of that special edition have me a bit worried though. I've heard crazy things, including an idea to make it a hybrid... I hope Ford does the right thing and throws in their most bad-ass V8 though...
Jay! Loose the darn bug zapper buzzing lights!!
It's interesting that this was from 2012 and ford foreseen the electric car future but has only now really designed a full EV that will be sold in 2021 at the earliest.
the best car ford ever made
ford needs to bring back the old school legend's like the torino, maverick, galaxie etc.
who would dislike this
What about the GT 40 in your garage? I looked through your vids to see about the one in the background.
what about it? yeah it is a gt40.. now what?!
Just a Ford GT not GT40. That one is newer and it's not 40 inches they raised it to 50 I think. Nothing special about it. A lot of others just like it. It just happens to be Jay Leno's GT.
IIZantesukenII 43"
Do a google image search of Ford Falcon Australia (There's a 4 door version and a sporty pickup version). I saw those over there on a trip. They don't even need to change the design... just sell them as is in the US.
I know a person who's worked as a contractor for GM, Ford, and Chrysler. He says FORD has the best setup and standards by far.
I made a lot of money buying Ford for a dollar when the recession hit, thanks Mr. Mulally!
@archolon i thought they still build those here? its not very reliable so why do you like them anyway?
I had to quit the Ford dealership heavy line mechanic roll in 1995, the dealer in Santa Barbara was cooking the books.
I was tired of being shortchanged on hours, and made to repair all the stupid truck engines that were designed to fail.
Working for myself really was easier, at least being honest with customers was possible.
Which would be pretty quick, coz January is the middle of summer here in Australia
Eco boost and they do have hybrids. Ford GT is a very good looking car and the quality is amazing. The starter switch went out on JC's car and they fixed that.
Cool video. The only question is, Why is the name "Mustang" in the title of this video??
