Think about it. EV used market share is smaller than new car share.

adorno: Farley doesn't have a prayer with his EV solutions.

I'm happy that you now finally agree with me that Ford and all legacy automakers around the world are totally incompetent when it comes to high tech. That's what I've been repeatedly saying over and over and over (glad that you're finally catching on). LOL.

And warning about China isn't going to enhance Ford's sales of EVs. China won't be allowed to dump EVs ... Americans are not going to buy that junk.anyway

Ford CEO Jim Farley (who knows the global auto/EV industry far, Far, FAR better than you ever will) publicly declared that Chinese EVs are an "existential threat" to the auto industry. (In case you're not aware, "adorno," Ford is in the auto industry, too, so the Ford CEO is saying that Chinese EVs are an "existential threat" to Ford as well. LOL.)

BTW, I'm not anti-EV.

Nonsense, you shameless, dishonest con-artist. You just called EVs "junk" only three sentences prior to that, you total buffoon ... even though Ford CEO Farley (who knows the global auto/EV industry, far, Far, FAR, FAR better than you ever will) said that Chinese EVs are so good that they pose an "existential threat" to Ford (and the entire global auto industry). You're so full of s*it, "adorno," that it's obvious to everyone ... who is sane.

But nice try with desperately throwing your Demokrat girlfriend kamaLa into the mix. You're so hopelessly clueless that you make Demokrat kamaLa look like Einstein. (And that's impossible to do, yet you just managed to do the impossible. Congrats!)

So keep making a total fool of yourself regarding "EVs vs ICE" ... keep digging your hole deeper & deeper ...

LOL.

When you need govt subsidies to exist you have a poor business model. No offense.

You're absolutely right: All legacy automakers (all of whom are totally incompetent at high tech) desperately need all kinds of EV subsidies to keep their comically money-losing EV operations afloat. When Sleepy Joe's handlers started talking up EV subsidies after the 2020 Stolen Election, Musk said they're a bad idea. But Demokrat Sleepy Joe's handlers still approved EV subsidies anyway.

T.B. Yoits: "... [yet another long-winded and dishonest diatribe] ..."

In case you didn't catch on (you obviously didn't), I was just being sarcastic - aka, only joking - when I said earlier on this thread that the richest person in the world is a total and complete "moron." (I didn't think I needed to end that post with /s because I just assumed freepers would realize I was clearly kidding about that. How could the richest person on earth possibly be a total "moron?" I mean, c'mon. Wake the hell up.)

You also intentionally and falsely claimed that I said Ford CEO Jim Farley is "great." Nope, Mr. T. B. Strawman, I never once said that the Ford CEO is "great." Not once, even though you deceitfully and falsely claim I said it. You need to stop irrationally blabbing about logical "fallacies" and stop deliberately lying about what I actually said. You're the most disingenuous person I've ever talked to ... except for "adorno." What I actually did say about the Ford CEO Jim Farley is that he knows far, Far, FAR, FAR more about the global auto/EV industry than anyone on this board ... which includes you. So when Ford CEO Jim Farley publicly declares that Chinese EVs are an "existential threat" to Ford, implying Trump better ban Chinese EVs from the U.S., it's quite obvious to everyone (who is sane) that the Ford CEO realizes that Chinese EVs are a huge threat to Ford. And as you and everyone knows, Ford is almost all ICE, so the Ford CEO must be absolutely convinced that Chinese EVs are therefore an "existential threat" to Ford ICE vehicles. Got it yet? There is no other logical conclusion.

[T.B. Yoits]

You need to stop irrationally blabbing about logical "fallacies" and stop deliberately lying about what I actually said.

YOU brought logic into it (Post 91). You stop pushing logical fallacies, and I'll stop calling you out on them.

(Although, as I said, I believe you could hit every one of them, whether intentionally or not).

You're the most disingenuous person I've ever talked to ... except for "adorno."

Well, we've never talked and that's a complete lie that I'm the second most "disingenuous" person you've interacted with, unless you really, really don't get out much. That I could believe. You push the logical fallacies because you're unwilling (deceit) or unable (deficiency) to argue truthfully. I'll grant you "unable" due to the pie-in-the-sky EV ideas. Deception is normally more organized and effective.

I get it. You get paid to post. You're hawking EVs. You or someone in your family might work for Tesla or be heavily invested into them. You might be a high-functioning autist like Elon Musk.

But go peddle logical fallacies on someone else.

adorno: Farley doesn't have a prayer with his EV solutions.

Still doesn't, no matter how many LOLs you include in your posts.

I'm happy that you now finally agree with me that Ford and all legacy automakers around the world are totally incompetent when it comes to high tech.

Just because a car is electric, does not make it high tech.

LOL. ;)

And warning about China isn't going to enhance Ford's sales of EVs. China won't be allowed to dump EVs ... Americans are not going to buy that junk.anyway

Still true. (LOL). ;)

Ford CEO Jim Farley (who knows the global auto/EV industry far, Far, FAR better than you ever will)

Far too many CEOs are removed because of dumb decisions Farley is jut playing along with EVs because, other are and Tesla showed success. Can't afford to fall behind, even if the decision turns out to be a dud. So far, for the last 3 years, Ford has lost around $15 billion. That's not success and that's dumb and that's decision-making that most economics 101 students would not make.

And, China's EVs are junk, and Farley is just using scare tactics to rationalize and justify his stupidity on EVs.

LOL... Hey! Your LOLS are infecting my posts too. Stop it!

publicly declared that Chinese EVs are an "existential threat" to the auto industry.

Not even close. Just a scare tactic. LOL!

(In case you're not aware, "adorno," Ford is in the auto industry, too, so the Ford CEO is saying that Chinese EVs are an "existential threat" to Ford as well. LOL.)

Chinese EVs are junk, and the only way they would sell in the U.S. is through dumping. That won't be allowed and Farley is still lying and using scare tactics. LOL! ;)

BTW, I'm not anti-EV.

Still true. I would purchase an EV if it met my goals, which I stated before. So far, none meet my criteria, not even Tesla. LOL!

Nonsense, you shameless, dishonest con-artist.

You win the argument. Anytime you have to resort to attacking your opponent with crazy and deranged rhetoric, you automatically have to be declared the winner, even if you are far from making your case. LOL. ;)

You just called EVs "junk"

You hae a very bad reading comprehension problem. LOL.

I did say that CHINESE Evs are junk. Go back and find the correct statement from me and quote me correctly. LOL.

you total buffoon ...

Hey, you win the argument again. Personal attacks are the only way you can win, even if that's not true, or a way of making your case. LOL.

even though Ford CEO Farley (who knows the global auto/EV industry,

I think you already said that several times. Are you suffering from dementia? LOL.

far, Far, FAR, FAR
Repetition makes for good practice. LOL.

better than you ever will)

Repeating the same junk, over and over again, will not make it true. LOL.

said that Chinese EVs are so good that they pose an "existential threat"

Lower priced does not make them better. Dumping them will not make them better. Scaring people about Chinese junk will not help Farley sell more EVs. People aren't as stupid as he believes nor as stupid as you think they are.

to Ford (and the entire global auto industry).

Woah! The entire global auto industry??? OMG, we had better be scared! LOL.

You're so full of s*it,

Ding! Ding! Ding! We have a winner! He who does the most persoanl attacks is the ultimate winner of any argument. No need to make his case. Insults are the best. LOL.

"adorno," that it's obvious to everyone ... who is sane.

I guess that leave you out. You're not sane. Look up the meaning of insanity and you'll see your picture there. LOL.

But nice try with desperately throwing your Demokrat girlfriend kamaLa into the mix.

Kamala is not a DEMOCRAT. (Don't be afraid to spell it cottectlyO. She is a socialist but more a communist. MuMdanie knows all about that. and Kamala does not appreciate you imitating her speeches and writing and communicating skills, though you do quite well at that. Don't deny it. LOL!

You're so hopelessly clueless

Yet, I'm the only one making sense here. LOL.

that you make Demokrat kamaLa look like Einstein.

You're so easy to manipulate, thet even my dog makes more sense than you. Kamala still doesn't appreciate you imitating her.

And, btw, when tested, my IQ was higher than Einstein's. LOL. (And that's impossible to do, yet you just managed to do the impossible. Congrats!)

It's not impossible to have an IQ higher than Einstein. Plenty of people do. but NEVER you. LOL. But, you might have an IQ higher than my do, but I doubt it. LO>

So keep making a total fool of yourself

It's impossible to make a fool of myself, when I'm making a total fool of YOU. LOL...

Kamala doesn't appreciate you trying to sound like her. Fool!

regarding "EVs vs ICE" ... keep digging your hole deeper & deeper ...

Oops! You caught be digging a hole. But, it's a hole totake me to Chian, so I can see how junky their junc EVs are, first-hand, and then I car report to Ford about how clueless his is about china's junk. LOL!

BTw, quit while you're behind, or you risk falling further behind. (Einstein said that). LOL!
