hey, if you buy the truck, do you get a free supply of Bud Light (enough to fill the bed)? |

The government will absolutely prop up the horrendous sales. The government set the agenda and will not fail. They'll dump millions into the big three to force us to own EVs.

I'm sure the poor towing review had nothing to do with this change of heart.

Ford and GM are ****ed. I'm on the waiting list for a Blazer SS but at $70,000 it's going to be a tough sell when a Model Y Performance is only $55,000. The Blazer is better looking but not $25,000 better. Yet Ford and GM can't cut their prices because they're apparently losing money on every EV they sell.
It's quite the pickle. |

I would never buy a electric car or truck. The only car I would buy that has a electric motor would be the new E-Ray Vette.

Ford should just build trucks and maybe the mustang and/or bronco.
