The Green Slime! Ford Lost $132,000 On Every Electric Vehicle Sold In Q1 (Hertz Ups Sales Of EVs To 30,000 As China Dumps US Treasuries)

The Green Slime! The global movement towards Green Energy (or global Marxist movement) is really The Green Slime! Or maybe it should be renamed “The Red Slime.”

Ford lost $132,000 on every electric vehicles they sold in Q1. It was so bad that even CNN reported it!

And then we have Hertz dumping its inventory of EVs. A slew of used Teslas have hit the Hertz car sales website after the company announced Thursday it planned to sell off 10,000 more electric vehicles from its fleet than originally planned, bringing the fire sale’s total to 30,000. Perhaps one of the reasons you can get such a good deal on a Tesla at Hertz right now is that the outlook for EV value retention is pretty grim at the moment.

Given the incidents of electric cars catching fire, perhaps saying its a fire sales is a bad choice of words. But what it says is that DESPITE massive incentives to buy EVs, consumer demand stinks. Although Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg will claim the market is booming.

How bad is the trainwreck that is the Biden Regime? China is bailing on US Treasuries.

Then we have the harpies on The View claiming that the solar ecilpse is caused by … global warming. Also earthquakes. Sunny Hostin must have taken different courses that I did in college.

The Biden Regime is hereafter known as The Green Slime, given their horrible policies. Unfortunately, The Green Slime is here already … and Hertz knows customers don’t want them at least on a temporary basis.

If you order a new ICE car watch out for the Dealer’s new scam they cancel your order but they do have an EV same color same price and it’s ready to take away but they’ll never take it back ,LOL

Great scheme, and you’re right. Some would think the price of gas was never increasing.
