HUGE NEWS! Ford CEO Shocking WARNING To All EV Makers!
You Tube ^ | 11/8/23 | ChargeDrive

Posted on 11/08/2023 3:38:20 PM PST by Impala64ssa

Are EV's a scam?! Ford CEO just abandoned electric cars, leaving the entire auto industry SHOCKED and CONFUSED! Ford is losing nearly 36,000 dollars on each EV they built, and could now close their doors forever! Why?
Because customers are REJECTING Ford’s EVs! With nearly 92,000 EVs sitting unsold on dealer lots, scammy dealer markups to fool the middle class, and 35,000 vehicle recalls just a couple of weeks ago, Ford is in a huge crisis!

EXCERPT:

The company could also benefit from the 2021 Reimagining Electric Vehicles in Illinois Act, which provides a 75% state income tax incentive for automakers to retrain employees to EV production.

Old Henry was an unabashed Jew-hater. It didn’t stop him from making affordable reliable cars. Just saying….

"...Don't know if it will finish off Ford, they said the same thing about the Edsel disaster in 1959..."

But alas, that's when America was still America and there was still lots of time left before the filthy union government got rolling big time with all it's rotten rules, regulations, diktats etc.

By the way, a decent Edsel would be a prize these days!

I have two friends who own Ford dealerships, they both say the UAW deal is pure insanity and prices will go through the roof.

These EV’s will be worth nothing at some point IMO. But on the other hand, I have a buddy who is a car collector with over 125 unique pieces of American muscle worth millions and worth more every day. He happens to have a Ford GT Carbon Edition. The only way you can buy one is by invitation and he paid $880,000 if I recall correctly. Today that ride is worth north of a million.

EV’s would maybe make sense if at least the electrical feedstock was nuclear power.

Dunno, but there is a huge EV factory going up in central Indiana that I believe will go unused if this trend continues. I tried to warn them!!!!

> This looks like BS. <

Who knows? This guy just might be right. But if you watch enough YouTube videos, you will come to the conclusion that every company everywhere is doomed, and will soon go out of business.

Boring YouTube videos just don’t get the clicks. So you’ve got to spice ‘em up.

That was the plan all along.

We are definitely well into Part 3 of Atlas Shrugged. We're waiting for all the airlines to collapse as well, so air travel gets nationalized and people attempt to travel on Air Amtrak.

” Have they learned anything from the Pinto exploding gas tank fiasco?”

The Pinto was safer than similar cars at that time. Don’t believe the Rolling Stone propaganda.

The last ford dip (2008) I invested...

I rode that wave real good..

Might just do it again. Is ford to big to fail? (with Biden in charge, I think it is)

This was central planning, polite bureau type of marketing by the DNC.

It failed.

Typical politics-infused America.

Has there ever been, in the long history of human civilization, a more stupid nation than 2020s America. The stupid is in everything, everywhere.

I'm getting about 39 MPG lifetime on my plain hybrid, and it's 10 years old now with about 50,000 miles on it.

Ford Avon Lake Ohio is investing big in EV trucks. Building additional plant it appears and battery factory. They’ve moved so much dirt they have a mini mountain on their site! Biggest scam ever!
