Unless of course he is lieing and mechanics are paid like garbage but he needs someone to blame for the poor reliability of current Ford vehicles and is angry he can't get more people fixing them despite them often making below the median US wage.

If his point is that it’s only worthwhile when the public subsidizes the cost, then he’s just yet another rent-seeking millionaire looking to profit off the taxpayer’s dollar at no risk to either himself or Ford.
