Ford is waking up. The buying public is wising up. The more we learn about EV's and their ongoing costs  the demand for EV's will continue to drop.

not only is the public wising up, they are doing so at a time the MSM is bombarding them with lies and B.S. The time is right for Trump to return and speak the truth, the people are ready to listen.

Current polls support your view.

Here are the reasons many of you WILL NOT buy an EV:
  • Cost
  • Range Anxiety
  • Battery performance in cold climates
  • No place to park at home to charge
  • No available 30 - 50A 240VAC ( 8 - 12 KW) capacity to add the charger
  • Cost to install above charger to your home/garage/driveway

I own a PHEV.  If you must buy something electric, these are a much better choice, IMHO.

I wonder if this could be the start of more businesses leaving politics and wokeness behind and concentrating on profits once again? Hope so. Of course we will have Disney, which I believe will remain woke, to show us how to run a business into the ground.

We will have to wait and see. Some company boards will recognize their charge is to deliver profits to the company. Others will not and are more likely to fail.
