I disagree. If he were so against ICE why all the push at the end with the jailbreak and other parts? Does not make sense to me why this big push when you will be not making this in 2 years. I would be just finishing it out and not putting any more money into it at this point. The carbon fiber wheels I heard they are making have to be going on something
Yup, Challenger ACR with a big Wang :p

Those could simply be to create a better isolator to ground for some damn EV.

If you think the Jailbreak is high priced (And it is, just ask me), what do you think the "Last Fandango" is going to cost? Not to mention greater demand than supply and the evil ADM.

I think the change upon us Motorheads is Electric and many don’t want to hear it and I get that. Board Rooms, Stock Holders, Governing bodies and the Greenies of the World are pushing this more than ever. The constant save the World is all reality destroying the world sadly with the Greed of the Select few creating more divisions than unity.

The whole car market is changing in front of us more than many are aware of as well. Meaning Ford has officially stopped making new car inventory. All Ford dealers effective immediately will no longer have new car lot inventory. And must liquidate all new cars on dealer lots within the next 60-90 days. Yes the only way to buy a new Ford vehicle is by special order only. The car market is seeing a huge pull back by consumers due to rising Gas prices and inflation. The gas guzzlers are being sold as fast as possible to be replaced by fuel efficient vehicles on the Used car side. I personally know the GM’s of major car dealers and they just got back from the annual Ford meeting and this is the message.

Not the first time the auto industry has made terrible mistakes in product development and marketing strategies...way to early to tell...or make an accurate assessment of consumer trends based on data of the past 30 days...yes the car industry is changing..to what degree..remains to be seen...

If this is the case it’ll be interesting to see how it goes over. I like to physically look at the vehicle and take it for a drive. Kick the tires so to speak. If they don’t have a vehicle I like I’ll either order one or look elsewhere. My choice. They may find out that buyers don’t like this sales tactic and tell them to pound sand. They’ve been able to use this plan due to the shortage of chips slowing production so I guess they think their buyers are good with it but what other choice did they have but to order and wait when no one has vehicles? Guess we’ll see.

Good points and the GM and sales people are totally arguing against it but Corporate will not bend at this time. Jim Farley may be an Ass Hat will see.

There are so many factors that make this agenda absolute nonsense ...#1...impulse buying...(a huge segment want it now...TODAY !!!)..kiss those buyers goodbye...#2...people want to see it (in person)..how many times have you heard...pictures don't do it justice...#3...people want to sit in it and drive it...(another segment lost)..Do I need to go on ???...ill -conceived destined to fail short lived concept...

I think CC has the pulse right. Many don't like it (me included) but denial isn't just a river in Egypt...

On the surface it may seem so...now factor in the geo political ramifications of an unstable oil industry in the mid east...this isn't just about the auto industry...and the move to EV...and has even less to do with the insignificantly small segment of aficionados of ICE..(us guys)..this will be no walk in the park for the EV agenda..much less a ride up a river by any name...
