Okay, but here’s what I mean. Ford decided at the end of 2025 to cut back on manufacturing and far scale back it’s plans for producing more electric versions of their vehicles. They did that because the demand for their EV’s isn’t there because the price point for them is ridiculous.
There’s a lot of EV’s sitting on dealer lots, so much so they were last I checked giving incentive programs to get employees to buy them.
That hasn’t got anything to do with China or BYD and everything to do with the fact that their cars arent selling because potential buyers don’t have money.
My comments had nothing at all to do with the labor practices of China.
And there’s one of the major problems; using the stealership model. Buying from Tesla or Rivian or Slate is/will be a breeze because it’s all online. No haggling with a stack of shit in a suit about cost or going somewhere to be told “we don’t sell the EV models here”.
Tesla’s sales are in the dumps too. Last I checked they were down 9%. Rivian’s sales were down to something like a 3 year low as of the beginning of this year. The fact is, the vehicles cost to much for the average American.

Bitch, you’re a dealership. You sell cars.
