MotorTrend Channel brings you an exhilarating episode featuring an exclusive interview with the one and only Jim Farley, the CEO of Ford Motor Company. Now, I know what you're thinking, "What's the big deal about a CEO interview?" Well, let me tell you, this is not your ordinary corporate chat. Ed Lowe and Johnny Lieberman, the dynamic duo of car reviews and head-to-head car comparisons, managed to score some precious time with Farley at his personal garage during the prestigious Monterey car week. And boy, did they hit the jackpot!

But before we dive into the juicy details, let me set the stage for you. Picture this: the sun-kissed hills of Monterey, the smell of burning rubber in the air, and the roar of high-performance cars echoing through the valley. It's a car enthusiast's paradise. And in the midst of all this automotive glory, Ed and Johnny found themselves face-to-face with the man who calls the shots at Ford.

Now, let's talk about the cars. Oh, the cars! Farley's personal collection is a sight to behold. But there was one machine that stole the show: a beastly Shelby Cobra, packing a mind-boggling 600 horsepower and 800 pound-feet of torque. And guess what? Farley not only let Ed drive it, but Johnny got a turn behind the wheel too. Talk about living the dream!

But don't be fooled, my friends. This interview was not just about the thrill of driving a Cobra. No, no, no. It was about the future of Ford, the future of EVs, and the future of automotive technology. Farley is a man with a vision, and he shared his insights on topics ranging from the new Mustang GTD to the possibility of splitting Ford into three separate companies. He even delved into the world of autonomy and software-defined vehicles, urging Ed and Johnny to cover these important stories that are shaping the automotive landscape.

Now, let's talk about the big news. Just the day before the interview, Ford had unveiled the Mustang GTD, a street-legal race car that had the automotive world buzzing. And guess who got the exclusive scoop? That's right, our very own MotorTrend Channel. They had the privilege of talking to Farley about this groundbreaking machine, and let me tell you, it's a game-changer.

But that's not all, folks. Farley dropped another bombshell during the interview. Ford is adopting Tesla's charging standard. Now, that's a bold move, my friends. It shows that Ford is not afraid to embrace new technologies and push the boundaries of what's possible in the automotive world.
