I can’t imagine companies like Ford would be doing well even without this EV idiocy. With all the supply chain disruptions leading to empty dealership lots, how many new vehicles are these companies actually selling these days?
Unfortunately I find myself in the market for a new car. My 2007 Ford Expedition has had over $3500 in repairs since January and now it’s back in the shop. Mechanic is telling me it needs a $4800 oil pump job. I cannot afford that. Have to say there are some SLIM pickings on the new car lots. I have all but ruled out a new Ford because of price and fuel economy. Would love another Mazda but unfortunately the local dealership closed back during the shut down. I’ve checked for used cars and they are all high mileage and most cost almost the same as a new one! It’s insane!! FJB
About a month ago I checked out a local Subaru dealer’s inventory of two different models and there were none in stock.
