The legacy automakers are afraid to make the type of investments and sacrifices needed to exist in the future. Kodak level incompetence.

My 2009 Ford fusion cost me $680 last year to maintain and that included a new power window, two cylinder heads, and 4 oil changes.

My dad was quoted $1150 to replace a cracked windshield in his Tesla that was damaged all the way back in January, he’s still driving with the crack.

Ford won’t have an issue selling EVs when the cost of replacement parts is not the cost of a cheap used car.

Consumers are starting to see through the BS.

damn so Toyota actually made a good decision not to announce putting all their egg in one basket

Maybe Ford knows something about a better alternative to EVs 👀 One can only hope

Saw a Porsche Taycan commercial on the TV this weekend. They must not be selling 😁

Dealers make 10x the sale amount on service and repairs. Why the fuck would they want to sell cars that require almost no service? lol
