Well they bought into the Obama/Biden program, now they have regrets.

“EVs are not ready for the average buyer and may not be for some time. It’s amazing that Biden’s advisors didn’t see that before demanding the regulations.”

Oh, Brandon & Co. know perfectly well, but they don’t care if they destroy the auto industry, the energy industry and the middle American class. They want to get us so far down the green path that we cannot turn back before they are (hopefully) thrown out of office.

They are using the green scam to install a dictatorship under the guise of saving the earth from burning up 100 years from now.

If Trump or another conservative gets elected, their big mission will be to crush the administrative state, dismantle it, and destroy it. If they don’t do that, it’ll come back to life like mushrooms in a spring rain.

The time to say “no” was when all this EV crap started. The car dealer prostitutes now deserve exactly what they get.

The EVs are piling up on lots and carmakers are losing billions of dollars.

Isn't that the end game? Or part of it?

Because the Car Dealers came short of the Magic 4000 number of complaints/signatures the Biden Administration can just ignore their complaints.

Just think, a few hundred more signatures and EV mandates would be dead!!!

Pssssst, Biden was going to ignore them anyway.

Dealers, guess they are not creative enough to come up with dealer added items like Flat Proof the battery for $1,999.00 or Poly Coat the Electric Motor Controller for $999.00, you know ADMU…… additionally dealer mark up…….

Last but definitely not least, the letter points out that “many people just want to make their own choice about what vehicle is right for them.”

What? People expect FREEDOM to make their own choices? What do they think this is? 1950 America?

Come on, man! Government knows best.

The whole idea is to get people out of cars. Furthermore, Biden is a figurehead, there is no one who can be appealed to.

“As retail automotive dealerships, we are agnostic as to what we sell…”

You may be agnostic but you are ruled by religious fanatics. Good luck petitioning them.

Ford’s F-150 Lightning loses about 25% of its range when towing.

One would have to be an idiot to not realize a battery loses efficacy when under a heavy load. But, then again, we are talking about the pResident.

They don’t understand ... that was the objective. Get rid of gas cars, gas stoves, gas generators, etc. and make they all use electricity .... then institute the Social Credit Score System and ration out electric. You peasants will ride public transportation. You peasants will keep you social credit score up or you will not have heat or light.

Question to all. I buy a Tesla Cyber Truck with the extra battery in the bed, you know over 400 trip. I tow my trailer and need to recharge the pickup truck. Is there a place to drop off the trailer because I don’t see a way to maneuver the pickup to the charger and out again. How long should I allow to drop the trailer, block the wheels, lock the trailer hitch, then go to charge and return to reverse all these steps to be ready to start down the road? Is this an issue for other potential buyers?

Perhaps these pinko fools have relearned a historical lesson that when you support a wannabe dictatorship, you get a wannabe dictatorship!
Government mandates kill.

The CAFE standards from the EPA also killed the small pickup truck. Now large pickup trucks are at $100,000 !! and even above !!

If most people can’t afford a new ICE vehicle, how much less can they afford an EV? Many people on fixed incomes can’t afford even a good used vehicle. Not only that, but thanks to government policies in the past, there’s little hope of even finding an affordable good used vehicle. Most car dealers will probably admit that market took a large step to going away whey introduced the ‘cash for clunkers” program some years ago. Buying a later model used car now is a chancy situation. First, there is the rather high price, then there are many undesirable features on lots of them, some of which may be inoperable. You have to be extra careful if you are even considering some of these “trouble buckets”.
