EV. QUEUES ARE LONG. WAIT TIME
A. WASTE. NO TOILET. FACILITIES.//
IF. THERE is A BLACK OUT tough S O L
Move it South Jim! Dump those over priced union slave plantations.
I wonder why he didn't mention Ford bringing Chinese battery manufacturing to Marshall Michigan. They're joining with CATL Contemporary Amperex Technology, the largest lithium car battery manufacturer in the world, in China, to build a 3.8 billion dollar battery plant. That 3.8 billion is coming from the inflation act money to build the a battery plant that will be owned by China. Ford will technically own the business, but CATL will own the building and the property the building is on. The 2500 jobs will be filled by existing employees of CATL from the plant in China. Gretchen Whitmer has already given CATL 210 million to buy 1000 acres, with more incentive money and tax credits on the way. You know China really appreciates Biden letting them in on the ground floor of "American battery manufacturing ". That should be a good payday.
YOU TUBE UNSOLD NEW CARS USA WHY BUILD CARS NO ONE BUYS WELL PEOPLE ARE WORKING
I already can't afford a brand new Ford.
Let's make them more expensive.
Ford wouldn’t have a problem selling the F150 lightning if they hadn’t raised the price and the let the dealers add ridiculous markups. Customers are passing on the abuse not the product.
Only throat jammin I see is trumps package you so willingly pack away faux news
Nice unrelated narrative. Faux news.
Talking heads at faux news
If course they are…we all know that. But do you know why?? That's what people should strive to find out, but are too lazy to do their homework
Any time the propaganda tells you it's a good deal!
IT ISN'T.
Look at how many government contracts Ford picked up this year along with the money congress has made on those contracts and stock increases.
Ford is winning no matter what the union agrees to.
I wouldn't care if ford and gm went under, stop SCEWING your customers, buy toyota! Hybrids are the way of the future, not electric only!
"KEEP ON KEEPIN ON"
Ford is Americas car company? Its not my car company. I don't want electric cars pushed down my throat and you are going full force.
I can see the future, if you don't have a EV they will outlaw gasoline.
What are us seniors on a limited budget
Yes
They built an EV charging station down the road from me 2+ yrs ago. Only seen 2 cars there EVER. They removed the convenient ATM machine for this…
FORD=Flipped Over Reservation Decoration
EV's should have been jammed down our throats 50 yrs ago …. for Christ sakes,look at the weather we're having, the heat…. ( Truth now on the ones who killed the electric car, finally now changing their tones and seeing the light…) Hope it's not too late…. just because your blind and can't smell the smoke, doesn't mean there's not a fire….. having 4 billion vehicles on the road globally, the fumes are going somewhere….HELLO MCFLY
I hear another giant sucking sound coming from Mexico and Asia. Corporate Fascism at it's finest.
Looks a bit like Chris Farley😲
Lots of non union workers are available
💚
We tell people good luck after you buy it now your stuck with it
The hazards of pushing EVs ( perhaps literally ) on the general public is as deadly as it was pushing smart phone tech and social media apps ! That was a big mistake , should have been slowly introduced , testing the consequences and effects on the general population !!!
If we are ever fortunate enough to see another Republican administration in Washington that should take care of the forced EV ‘craze.’ I’m not holding out much hope of ever seeing another Republican administration, however.
Check out car lots. Controlled manufacturing. Government and large corporations married since 1980s. Hear we are with the Swamp
I am a Ford shareholder. Ford's offer is reasonable.
That is because both dems and repubs know 90% of Americans cannot afford to buy EV's, which is the whole point. I read 30-40 years ago that personal automobiles were not "sustainable." Plus, it handily puts 90% back to a serfdom way of life in their "15 minute cities." Most, of course, are going to rebell. Then we will see their true colors and intentions, won't we…
Yes, they are.
All Swallow.
No Spit.
EV's would be great. If you could buy one with wishful thinking, and recharge it with fairy dust. Even then, it only produces more coal plants in China.
Electric cars powered by electricity from conventional sources? Raw materials including the manufacture of batteries mined from the earth via petroleum powered vehicles AND using child/cheap manual labor? Where is all the copper going to come from for charging stations/power cords? How are petroleum powered trucks that supply our high street stores with all products we require and consume (food etc.) going to be replaced by EV trucks, ships and other critical transport? How will we endure long drives that require a charge to complete the journey(s)? EV Campers? Where are all the charging stations going to come from? What about the added strain on the electrical grid more so in geographical areas where the grid is already under pressure?
It`s all utter crap and the green new deal is nothing more than a con job for billionaires!
Union contracts violate contract law because they are exercised against the will of the owner.
Lot of people would like to have those jobs let them leave and find out what the real world is like.
I’ll buy an ev when they’re like 10k. Which will probably never happen…. & I’m not against them. Its just not a smart investment for the average American. We not making 300,000+$ like you guys… You literally only could use the car “confidently” to go back/forth to work and stay local.. Maybe if you guys got creative and put built on solar panels to constantly charge , you could reach out to a bigger market.. But even then, the fact remains in like 7-10 years, you got to worry about a 20k battery replacement 👀
100k without an education…. School teachers don’t even make close to that and they spend 100-200k on college, greedy little buggers , wonder how much longer Farley will last at Ford .. his great ev experiment has failed spectacularly, the customer chooses not the government.
I'd love one please!!!
He honestly foesnt answer the question. Pivots and talks about his company. True polition. Never will own a ev. Ill stick to my shiny new cummins work truck to tow 34k pounds lol. Which we tow alot of stuff daily. The world doesnt even understand the probpem down the line with all these bataries needing to be disposed of. 10 year life span if your lucky on a battery . 40k$ to replace those bateries . Best off chucking it in garbage and buying another car
U.S.A.!
I'm more interested in hybrids, particularly for HD trucks and semi trucks. Im a regional/otr trucker and an EV semi would do me no good when I typically drive 580-630 miles a day under a load. A hybrid would be much better to boost fuel economy in stop and go city traffic, customer facilities, and in the mountains climing hills and grades. Plus the smaller battery pack for a hybrid can double as and APU when I'm parked to run AC, Fidge, inverter, ect.. and cut down on idle hours on the engine.
It's also about time we revise and overhaul regulations for weight limits too. For a country with a massive GDP we have an awfully inefficient/ineffective freight system. Carriers like to b*tch and moan, but adding an extra axle to both their tractors and trailers would be cost effective. Far cheaper than investing in entirely unproven technology that can't be sustained with our current infrastructure. Bump the standard amount of axles on a tractor trailer combo from 5 to 7, bump the weight limit up from 80,000 to 110,000, and you could drastically reduce the amount of trucks needed on the road. Not only that but you'd be reducing the amount of wear and tear on our roads by reducing the weight per axle on the road from 18,000 lbs to 16,500. Finding parking may be easier as well with a large reduction in the amount of equipment required for fleets. Many smaller customers could save money too by only needing to book one load of freight rather than two or three.
That's also more brakes, and tires available to provide traction and friction to slow down. Add in a hybrid axle, and you'd have a compression brake and regenerative braking for decending hills or de-accelerating in general.
If our regulators had half a braiin, some common sense, and real world experience in these "struggling" industries, well we wouldn't be struggling then. Ontop of it all you'd be reducing the cost of pretty much all consumer goods, fuel, housing, cars, ect.. because everything in our market has a shipping cost associated with the final price of the product being bought.
Regulations are like cholesterol. Too much of it and they just clog everything up and require the body/country to work harder to stay productive.
I will NEVER buy an EV!!
Ford and The Administration can kiss my Butt!!
Those union bosses say a lot of things it's called I sure hope when the union vote on it they okay the contract,
The only EV I would buy is a golf cart!
Sold my king ranch and bought an AT4, sold my Gt500 and bought an F-type R and just ordered a sprinter van to replace my transit, buh bye Ford!
Well good luck this young generation. You’re so screwed. I’m glad that I’m old
Definitely being shoved down our throats. If they are so great then let the people decide.
Yes they are being jammed down are throats through ford and the government. Wait until they mandate EVs only
