So ford will only lose 5.9 billion on them next year?

Maybe they can make it up on volume

My wife’s vehicle is 16 years old, but it only has 65,000 miles on it. Bulletproof engine. One of the better ones ever produced. That said, I still wonder if we shouldn’t get a replacement with a newer ICE vehicle.

Better start building detached garages, like they did in the early days of gas cars.

I’d do an electrical vehicle to ride around town maybe. But I have to have an ICE vehicle around for distance runs.

If we just had a Federal law mandating that every Public Employee nationwide exclusively use EV’s for ALL Travel, the problems would be fixed after a few thousand sacrificed their lives and families to an EV.

Remember: The push towards EV’s isn’t about getting you into more environmentally friendly, sustainable transportation; it’s about getting you out of you car, and onto government transportation.

Hmmm...I am using battery powered mowers, weed whackers, edgers, etc. I hope those 40V 6 AH Lithium batteries are not a serious fire hazard. And on top of that I dropped home insurance 2 years go. I was told no risk, no gain.

buyers are ignoring electric vehicles and sales are a disaster.....

Oh wait - It WAS just yesterday!!!!!

When you tally up the EV negatives, there are way more of them than the positives. It’s just another cockamamy fade by hypocritical environmental Globalists. They get chauffeured around in big SUVs and fly in personal jets around the world while dictating to the little people how they should live. They are arrogant SOBs who shouldn’t be given the time of day.

I go to Reddit to read articles and saw an post about some guy was denied parking in a parking garage. They would not allow Chevy Bolts. His electric car was not a Bolt but still banned and he could not understand why.
Answers given were high insurance costs, electric cars damaged slightly in accident but are totaled out by the insurance company as the battery needs replacement. Uncontrollable fire, mass deaths.

There were people who still thought electric was good. I guess if your home or car is not on fire then everything is good.
Those high insurance costs will also cause gas car insurance to rise to help pay for electric.
