Why build for a country that doesn’t pay its citizens enough to afford your cars?
That’s not the problem. Ford sells 50 and $70k pickup trucks all day but the buyers of those vehicles are part of a tribe that’s tribally opposed to clean vehicles.
That is because The Govs. gives huge tax rebates & Etc. programs to lower the costs to consumers.
Remember economics out ways everything else, if they could not afford them, they would not buy them.
‘The Crazy Don’ cancelled the lesser money back programs for EVs.The Govs. give huge tax rebates & Etc. programs to lower the costs to consumers.
…do those programs not apply to EVs?
if they could not afford them, they would not buy them
They absolutely can and do. There are entire industries based on this. They sent the entire world into a recession ~20 years ago.
Wait a sec. are you asking are not Electric powered Trucks/Pickups not covered by the same rebate & Etc. Govs.’ programs for Trucks/Pickups? Well, if you are, you be frustrated to know, only gas powered trucks/pickups qualify!
No, credit only goes so far. So no, they do not. Whole truck industry yes, propped-up by those programs.
The pickup truck buyers absolutely did not do that! Is was a HOUSING CRISES, illegal, like con artist, claims of owning people’s homes, illegal mortgages & Etc. practices still never dealt with, but during it The Dem. ‘90+% Capitalist’ Party & USA President Obama & his administration worked with Wall Street Vikings (thought about using pirates, but they were better than both, they had something like COOP before COOP; I am 100% sure The Rep. ‘Crazy Capitalist’ Party was also on board) like Mr. Diamond to illegally steal people’s houses, instead helping the people fight the illegal taking of their houses/survive!
Source- Independent, Political Left & Rich-Rich Economic Classes’/Owners’ money does not have influence on what they broadcast: ‘Free Speech’ & ‘Democracy Now’ (https://www.democracynow.org/topics/housing)!only gas powered trucks/pickups qualify!
What rebates are you referring to?
That what you can find-out through DuckDuckGo, not doing the work for you.
Yeah I didn’t think so.
part of a tribe that’s tribally opposed to clean vehicles.
Remember actions and words do not match here. Many of those people are happy to verbally say the support clean vehicles and such. However they are buying big trucks with big engines. They will vote for someone who says “get the oil company”, but if gas prices actually go up they will vote for someone else (and the people they vote for know it and so in turn say kill the oil companies, but when the oil companies want something the get it)
If this keeps up, in a decade or so, we’re gonna look like China and not in the good way. What I mean by that is you’re going to see a surreal look of products that are kinda like what’s offered in the rest of the world but are ripoffs or cheap copies.
The isolation will hamper innovation as US companies lose access and dominance in broader markets.
Its okay, when gasoline is no longer affordable there will be lots of non-ford options.
Ford will be the buggy whip company soon.
Good, go back to burgerland. The rest of the world don’t need your shitty cars anyway.
How the mighty have fallen. 15 years ago Ford was still making good compact cars.
It is not the people not wanting EVs or conversions of gas powered automobiles to Solar Powered Automobiles, it is The Govs. ignorant interference, especially ‘The Crazy Don’.
The other problem is not just having EVs, but what provides the Electricity they arepowered on. Nuclear Energy providing the Electricity is still not good enough. That is why The Govs. should be making available EVs be only the ones that have solar panels build into the skins of the EVs. Just as The USA is so far behind the times in not setting a extremely close date where also (see previous sentence) gas powered & hybrid automobiles are not sold in The USA!
The ‘Global Warming’ & the rest of environmental issues are a danger to All Living Earth & All Living Beings & it is not going wait for our species to make even more sick profits, for The Rich-Super Rich Economic Classes/Owners!
