Is that one of those Solyndra-style loans that are really gifts?
Jeenius!
Ain’t socialism grand?
The massive expense of the climate change crisis fraud goes up and up and up.
U.S. Department of Energy and Loan WTF ??????
DOE did not give Ford money, they gave our tax money to Ford.
There is no $$ for this or the Ukraine insanity.
Why it never mattered that Ford was losing big bucks on every EV it sold.
It’s good to have low friends in high places.
Note to Ford dealers: You’ll never see us on your lots. Or at your service centers.
Yup. Another $10 billion down the rabbit hole. Regardless, where do these geniuses expect to get the electricity? Spin the windmills faster?
“ Note to Ford dealers: You’ll never see us on your lots. Or at your service centers.”
It’s pretty much Toyota products for our family.
Ford should be made to pay back the reparations they received when they sued the U.S. government after WWII, for damages that allied bombing had done to their factories in Nazi Germany, and make them pay it back, according to today’s currency exchange rates.
Great. Now they can piss away billions of our dollars along with billions of their company’s funds.
“Ain’t socialism grand?”
Not socialism. Fascism.
$9.2 billion dollars wasted, no one wants EV.
When electric cars were first invented that had about a 400 mile range, today 125 years later they have a whopping 400 mile range
Ford provided engines for nazi trucks
I’d buy a used Lada before I buy an American brand.
Detroit can KMA.
Several years back Ford borrowed against everything they had and took out loans totaling about $28 Billion, at that time I thought they were headed for Bankruptcy.
They well might now by banking everything on EV’s and abandoning the ICE market, that goes for GM and Chrysler-Fiat also.
Funny, Henry Ford didn’t need a single dime from the federal government to build the largest automobile manufacturer in the world at one time. Welcome to the communist planned economy which is going to crater.
