Just one word.\\n\\nThat\'s all Ford CEO Jim Farley used to respond to Tesla CEO Elon Musk on Friday.\\n\\n"Tesla & Ford are the only American carmakers not to have gone bankrupt out of 1000\\u2019s of car startups. Prototypes are easy, production is hard & being cash flow positive is excruciating," Musk tweeted Thursday.\\n\\nFarley retweeted Musk early Friday saying only, "Respect."\\n\\nReaction on Twitter has been swift with likes, retweets and spicy comments.\\n\\nMusk, of course, is quietly acknowledging the bankruptcies of General Motors and Chrysler, now part of Stellantis.
