Radio killed the video star?
Long for Rush.
So, Ford’s assertion that EV motors interfere with AM radio reception was a lie? Seems about right.
According to a purple haired liberal neighbor of mine, AM radio is all right wing and bible thumping hate speech.
I’ve given up and just avoid conversations with her. Pointless.
Most radio talk shows are on AM.
Hmmm...
Seems like somebody at Ford hates talk radio, especially the conservative talk shows.
It’s a roundabout way to kill ‘right wing’ radio, which democrats hate so much.
I haven’t listened to AM radio since RUSH left us way to early.
There’s not one station that I can find that plays easy listening in my area.
I tried listening to a near-by station who advertises as classic country. Which is anything but “classic’.
Think I’ll just Sirius / XM again for the car.
Was Ford trying to suck up to the communists?
Ford owners need as many listening alternatives as they can get while they’re waiting for the tow truck to arrive.
FM has a much shorter range than AM.
Cell tower coverage exists in the cities and along major highways, but it isn’t universal and never will be.
Satellites provide universal coverage, but are not free.
I generally wish I didn’t have to resort to AM when driving cross country, but I still do.
When buying a car - if all other things are basically equal - I would go with the car with AM radio. Ando so would million of other people like me.
FORD needs to understand that most of us (outside of Democrat hellhole cities) don’t listen to NPR... or cut off our son’s dicks, or drink Busch Light...

They can choose both groups by offing FM and AM or they can choose democrat ‘elites’ by offering only FM. Why only the ‘elties’ ? Because the democrat base is black and they’re not into NPR either.
On quiet nights in the summer we would sit outdoors and listen to it rust.
None of the Japanese brands are dropping AM radio, nor Hyundai/Kia, nor GM.
There you go folks, money talks, we have the power. Just look at Bud and Target.
Piing
Note that they fixed the problem with a software upgrade. The whole thing was a fake progressive move to combat conservative talk radio.
It’s free radio - and literally costs pennies to implement in a hardware situation (via antenna).
Why kill it? Why not ADD features, instead of removing them?
