They plan to make 2 million EVs although they only sold 61,575 last year.
You mean like the “mustang” mach-e?
Corporate staff is loaded with college indoctrinated executives. They’re going to ride this thing right into the ground.
Starting to see E-Stangs on used car lots.....................
I’ve heard about their Electric pickup. What a joke. IF they can even haul something, their range goes down tremendously.
Go woke go bigly broke.
If I owned a Ford Electric, I would park it 100 feet from any structure. All electrics are prone to burn eventually.
Ford is counting on governments mandating their crappy EV’s unlike Toyota who is counting on creating good enough batteries that people will actually want electric cars.
They can make all the electric cars they want and so far they can’t force anyone to buy them. Including the Democrats who all like to drive around in black Chevy Suburbans, GMC Yukons, or Cadillac Escalades.
Isnt this why the fed govt is giving Ford a $9 BILLION dollar “ loan” to build these lemons?

Ford receives $9.2 billion government loan for EV battery factory projects / The eye-popping sum represents the biggest government investment in the auto industry since the bailouts from the Great Recession.
The worst part of EVs is that, people give up o them a lot sooner than they do with ICE vehicles, and when they trade them in for other vehicles, the dealers get stuck with most of them, since the market for used EVs is not as great as for regular ICE vehicles. Dealers would like to sell them, since the manufacturer parent company makes them, but, they don’t want them back as used EVs.
If government wasn’t insisting on people getting EVs, most car-makers would not be making them, not even a single model
“Ford Keeps Losing More Money Making Electric Cars No One Wants”
Ford had to put a hold on orders since demand exceeded orders!
“They plan to make 2 million EVs although they only sold 61,575 last year.“
The Rats “loaned” Ford 10 Billion to do so. I think the plan is flood the market with EV’s which causes a glut which drives the prices down which will eventually boost sales. But it won’t because people do not want them and it’s not due to a lack of charging stations
thats what shareholder lawsuits are for....
My sister and my cousin are going from Wisconsin to Minnesota in August to visit relatives. My cousin calls my sister last week and tells her she just bought a new car and it only goes 200 miles on a charge - can my sister drive. We guess she’s afraid there won’t be charging stations on the route. We laughed that, once again, the evil fossil fuel guzzler would get the job done.
Ford is part of the ruse
gas cars will be banned
but its ok cuz you can switch to an EV or maybe not
too expensive/no place to charge it?
shut up and get on the bus
EVs will not replace gas cars
I was gonna buy a new Ford 150 pickup w/V8.
The day we went to meet with the sales manager just happened to be the same day they came out with that woke rainbow-pianted queer truck. I told the sales manager that I was no longer interested in their trucks because of it. I decided to hold onto my old one awhile longer, but looking hard at a new Toyota these days....no queer EV Fords for this child.
Ford used to take a contrarian position on muscle cars and hard-working gas and diesel pickups. Sadly wokism has captured Ford’s leadership and now the mission is to go bust or broke conforming to the lunatic environmentalist message.
$25k small pickups is what the market wants.
Like a plain Jane ‘80s Ranger, S10, or Toyota Diesel HiLux would be great.
Manual, 5 speed please.
F150 for $60-90+K is just nuts.
The auto companies are forcing themselves into bankruptcy on purpose. They are being directed to do so.
They have storage lot fields of new vehicles they produced that no one wants or can afford. Their prices on new vehicles with crappy engines and more “designed to fail” plastic parts under the hood, are through the roof.
I’m sure dumb libtards will rush out to save the planet (Ford)
EV’s can be fun toys, but real working people need vehicles that can travel long distances reliably without regard to load, temperature, terrain, etc.
I’ve noticed most proponents of EVs seem to be upper class people who also own a gas-powered vehicle to use when things get serious.
