Ford brought back employee pricing for everyone on May 1st and the offer is set to expire on July 6th. However, don’t be surprised if it gets extended as sales have been dreadful.

 

In the second quarter, group sales fell 10.3% to 549,200 units. That’s a decline of 62,895 vehicles and the automaker is down 9.6% year-to-date.

 

Those are brutal numbers and hybrids didn’t even help. Despite sky high gas prices, Ford’s hybrid sales dropped 20% in the second quarter. That stands in stark contrast to rivals as sales of Kia hybrids soared 187% in June and were up 115% for the first half of the year.
