The problem I've found is that security enforces this. The times I have told them a general area where these cars are parked, they have asked for the make, model, and color. I don't always know exactly what they are and say "I think" and they just tell me that they need to know. They need someone to enforce this that actually can tell Ford family vehicles from all others. I should be able to say Lot 5 near the fence closest to Lot 4 and they go and find them. Just my two cents or less for what it matters.

It's up to Ford management. They can't tow them unless Ford says so. Why tag them if Ford will not enforce the rule.

We've got a crooked Union to fight along with Ford. They want more union dues and Ford keeps cutting out jobs and overloading every other job, no raise, cola in years while they are making record profits and all you'll cannot talk about or worry about is what people are driving, why do you care what people buy with the money we work hard for. ford hasn't given us shit but medical problems, we are doing them a favor plus without the hourly workers Ford wouldn't be shit. We make ford not the union nor the over paid managment the are clueless and don't do shit. We are over worked and under paid!!!!!!

I think all rice burning cars should be towed. When I see a foreign car in parking lot, makes me wish for no camaras so it could be like my "Fathers union again".... Just my opinion

Why do we have this conversation every six months or so? Very few people care. Why not complain how Ford takes up two of our parking lots?

I asked an old timer, who retired in the 90's, after 30+ years, if he ever saw any of the "old school" vigilante justice taken out on people/cars. He said no. Knew of 1 vw rolled on its side. He said the majority of all that talk was bullshit made up by wannabe tough guys and liars.
Once again, im pushing a decade with no raise. The co, & the IUAW can suck my balls. Ill spend my money on what I damn well please. Im damn sure not going to lose sleep over a car parked in the wrong lot. Ill never understand the logic behind the policy anyway. If your workers/dues payers are treated right, you wont have to worry about what they drive, the majority will naturally buy/drive the products they build and are proud of.
But continually kick them in the junk, throw away their contractually won raises/benefits, all while the top of the pyramid scheme continues to rake in the $.....well, you might see some dissension in the ranks.
Its your $ folks. Buy what you want. You earned the $. It wasnt given to you, you sweat for it. If anybody questions your motives, look them in their eyes and tell them. Fuck off.

LMAO!!!! You know what they say...... Ifyou don't like the way it's run... Run for office and help fix the problem instead of being part of problem. And no, I'm not a committee person. I'm just thinking maybe we need someone in IUAW to stand up to company and help the workers, not the bigwigs. Buying foreign cars is just giving other countries your American dollar. At least buy a car from an American owned company.

Just don't understand why we have rules if They are not enforced?Thats why we have this topic every 6 months!!!Thats what's wrong with our culture !! I Mean there's a sign at the entrance to all doors at our plant that I cannot take a weapon in to work, this is a rule and we all follow it.So if it's a less meaningful rule it's okay to break it??? Wtf follow the fuckin rules !!! Why not park in the lot assigned to rice burners?Too far to walk? Buy a Ford !That way there will be better spots for the workers that own Fords and don't use our parents handicap tag!!!rules are rules period!!!

Hell, if you drive a rice burner just bring a fake ass handicap sticker and park in the spot for people with real handicap problems...never in my day have I seen more "handicap" 20 something workers parking in the handicap spots and walk in and knock out a 10 hour shift on the assembly line.

For the record all my vehicles are Fords, with that said I careless how you spend your money or what you drive. I prefer it be American but that is not a condition of employment here at the Ford plant... I don't owe my soul to the company store... I'd rather see an American made dodge in the lot that Japanese built Mazda, or a Volvo, or a Jaguar etc etc AND Rules Rules OMG live in glass house don't throw stones... I'm sure you follow every rule right... Lets see how this RULE came about was it voted on by the membership... you know UAW democratic union and all... Or did as I hear it some plant chairman make the rule... And here's the best part We want everyone to park at gate 0 right along Chamberlain so all the outside world thinks "Yeah buy Ford ...hell there own employees won't buy them.. thats all you see parked at the road Forigen cars... LOL yes well thought out policy...

Nothing is enforced at this place. If they won't even enforce drinking or drug use, why do you think they would care where people park.

I dont care what anybody buys and drives... But if its not American, park that shit where it belongs...most of you people wanna bitch about this suckass union we have right now and how its falling apart , but not live by the code which is buy ford or american... And not everybody can afford to swap brands just to do so ... But if thats the case , park your burner where its supposed to be.... I would guess that everyone who complains about this is someone it directly affects

Im sure your cellphone, tv's, clothes, etc are all American made by 100% American owned co's. Right? The 50's are gone, its a global economy. I agreed to work for ford, & they agreed to pay me for the work I do. Thats it. Ill leave all the hand wringing over how much of a true 'Merican somebody that drives a non Ford is, to the sheep.

As it has been pointed out, gate 0 is where the non ford's are to be parked. Keep in mind that we have LTS's, TPT's, Entry level employee's and Legacy employee's that have poor money manageing skills and can only afford what they can afford. Now, if the employee NEEDS to have a Hanicap placard, that is fine just park in a hanicap spot in the proper parking lot and let those who buy the car required to park in the premium spots.
Oh for the record, this IS a Ford policy and NOT the UAW's policy about the parking (although they might have had a hand in it).

You also have LTS/temp & legacy employees that manage their money very well. They don't get caught up in the bullshit that douchebags spew about being a "real Ford man". Ill more than likely not buy another new car for myself until I retire. Ill buy whatever suits my need regardless of make. But feel free to keep feeding the beast, ford loves you. Ill wait till I see a raise before the thought of buying a new ford even enters my mind.
