Knock!.......................
The Ford and GM problem is that the trucks aren’t selling. Dealer pickup inventories are swelled to some say 50+ days of sales. The new models are soon to emerge only to face the extreme unsold back logs.
The EV’s have nothing to do with the existing truck problem. People are just not buying a truck that starts at $50 grand and up and up and up.
Ford has exacerbated the problem by going to war with the dealers.
I bought one of the last Dodge Grand Caravans to be produced from a one year old fleet for $15K. With the second and third rows folded flat, it does most of what the $50K pickup will do and it gets 26MPG on the highway and 19 around town. I won’t be mortgaging my house for a new truck anytime soon.
Prices on new trucks and cars are beyond ridiculous.
There is no way I will every purchase an EV.
General Motors and Ford both have their feet firmly on the gas pedal.
And not one rainbow mud flap seen on any of them.
Speaking of ICE powered vehicles, does anyone still build a passenger van capable of pulling even 10K?
