Is this a lying anti-Semitic Blood Libel by Nitzy?

Perhaps Israel shouldn’t have funded and supported the terrorists who over threw the Assad regime.

Oh well…I guess Israel will just have to take over some more territory from them, kill more Christians and get one step closer to “Greater Israel”.

When are people going to wake up and understand what is going on here?

Then, again, maybe not

The liberal virtue signalers that would tolerate one of those oversized electric golf carts already have one of the damn things.

“EVs need incentives because they’re inferior products”

Oversized electric golf cart fanbois will not be pleased at that assessment.

I imagine they are already stocked up with way more EV’s than they want. In that business, you order what the customers want and the truck arrives with your order and a bunch of vehicles no one wants that you are lucky to break even on.

I wouldn’t even want one at a bargain price.

"Mach-E"

Funny how that is pronounced just like "mock-e".

Whoever authored that memo should be fired as they are part of the bad decisions that plagues Ford.

The ev’s of 100 years ago had swappable batteries.

The Nissan TAMA EV of 1947 was successful, due to a shortage of gasoline but abundant electricity. The 4-seater EV had swappable 40v batteries with 65km range. Later used as a taxi until 1951 when gasoline was again abundant. Forerunner of the Nissan Leaf of today. Gasoline always wins against electric.

I don’t think too many customers will rush out to buy one of these EVs just because there is a rebate. They are still going to be a bit pricey if the EV in question is one of the better ones. Lie it said 2 customers per week instead of one is 100% increase. Not a big rush in normal terms. There is also a lot to consider other than the price before you decide you want one. I know I DON’T.
