Pardon my intrusion...the selling of EVs (especially F150s, apparently) is a strategic move.

"For us to be the bestselling electric pickup is super important strategically," Farley said. "The first people who buy our first-generation electrics are going to be the first people to buy our second-generation electrics."

Some form of EV is the future. So-called "fossil burners" can't endure. So he's right. Initially, Tesla lost money as well. But eventually they became profitable. Building their own charging network was a brilliant move. The Big 3 should probably collaborate on building one of their own, either through existing players (e.g. VW and Electrify America), or new one that they own.

I have an ID.4. Occasionally I notice gas prices (especially when I have to fill up our Jeep), and at almost $5/gal, I muse "I wonder if someone would like my Cherokee...I used to get unsolicited offers for it."
