The Ford electric pickup was a pretty hot seller when introduced but I’ve heard inventory is piling up now.

Every three hours requiring a stop for two hours to recharge is no way to take a vacation. As a consumer you knew that before you spent $100K on an Electric car. “Caveat Emptor”

In a letter posted on Facebook, Bala described how he paid $115,000 on the Truck in addition to thousands of dollars more installing chargers, Hey, in all fairness, they guy could have spent $450,000 on a Lamborghini and had exactly the same outcome to his road trip...

He added that the government needs to do more to "provide consumers with the right information."
If government were to do the right thing, they'd advice people to not get any EVs. But, when it comes to EVs, government is advising and forcing people to get EVs. Doing the right thing is not what government is about, especially when it comes to EVs and the climate change farce.

Here’s a clue as to why he was surprised by this:
“He added that the government needs to do more to “provide consumers with the right information.”
Not.His.Fault!!!!!! / s

Winnipeg is cold as hell, you have to be crazy to buy an EV there.

Toyota has hybrid systems which run 40-50 miles on a small electric motor, then switch to gas-hybrid when that runs out.
Given how most people drive, the average MPG will be 100+, and adoption of such “simple” and already practical technology will reduce gas consumption and CO2 emissions FAR MORE than adoption of totally electic vehicles
Yet government and their fascist eco supporters do not want a simple solution. Why?

“Ford told the outlet, ‘This customer’s experience highlights the urgent need to rapidly improve access to public charging across the US and Canada.’”
No, this customer’s experience the urgent need to abandon this sheer stupidity and stick with high-energy liquid fuels.

I love it! That’s a great cartoon. I don’t know a single Democrat who could pass that test. In fact, that should become the standard test you have to pass to become a registered voter.
