| Ford Loses $1.3 Billion on Electric Vehicles in Just the 1st QT of 2024 |
| 2024-04-29 |
 FORD = Found On Road Discharged 🚗🔌 NOTE: There is Wall St. talk of a pending Car Market Crash (EV & GAS) happening later this year. Manufacturers are already Heavily discounting many new vehicles or offering super lower interest rates. (In short, its Buyer's Market.) Add to this the Toyota's $10,000-$15,000 Pickup. Scheduled to hit the US market in later 2024. It will hurt the USED vehicle market big time. |

| #9 The first truck I owned was a 1951 Ford F1 with a flathead V-8. Top speed was 45 but it would pull anything. Next was 1 1974 Ford F250 and it was a good truck. I now own a 1996 Dodge 2500 Club Cab with the V-10. Bought it new. Still runs great. Worst cars were Ford Pinto and Peugeo. |

| #2 #1Yes, most yes. Apparently this issue is moisture getting into the battery itself. During a semi-voluntary conversation with a local leftard I brought up this very flaw. The leftard declared with typical certainty that they were 'factory sealed'! I paused and inquired what his experience of washers, flanges, seals, and gaskets was in this world? Maybe even in the presence of flooding. Mercifully the encounter was abruptly ended. |

| #1 SOME FOOD FOR THOUGHT University of Tennessee Study: Electric car fires are more common than those in gasoline cars. “The study found that electric car fires occur in 3 out of every 1,000 starts, while internal combustion car fires occur in 1 out of every 10,000 starts. University of California-Irvine Study: “Electric car fires are responsible for approximately one-third of all car fires in the United States.” Bureau of Transportation Statistics and the National Transportation Safety Board. The site found that hybrid vehicles were even most prone to fires per 100,000 sales at 3474.5. Compared to 1529.9 fires per 100k for gas vehicles. |
