7000 cars, 7 days
♥️ Tesla Team ♥️— Elon Musk (@elonmusk) July 1, 2018
Considering that Musk expressed his criticism about Ford’s energy and Tesala achieved results like producing 5,000/week Model 3 cars , Ford’s VP of Communications Mark Turby expressed Ford’s capability to roll off a new F-150 truck every 53 seconds from its production line.
Chairman and CEO Ford, Europe, Steven Armstrong minutes after this tweet trolled Musk with a brilliant reply. Armstrong wrote that Ford could produce the same number of cars in 4 hours which Tesla took a week for. “7000 cars, circa 4 hours. Ford Team” the tweet read.

It’s not Ford vs Tesla.
It's not Ford v Tesla. It's new growing car company spending money to expand, vs established company with declining sales unable to cover operating costs. Growing vs sustaining are 2 very different "phases".

Tesla achieved the target of making 5,000 Model 3 and 2,000 Model S & X in one week and Musk congratulated the team for this. Some experts questioned if Tesla would be able to sustain the Model 3 production momentum as it is crucial for the long-term benefits of the company.
“There`s a big difference between making 5K Model 3 units for 1 week vs. sustaining 5K per week,” Morgan Stanley said. To meet its goals, Tesla has set up a new production place inside a tent on the campus of its Fremont factory.
