Ford building 4 new plants to meet demand for electric vehicles

Preparation on the vehicle manufacturing end is great, but there's much more to saving the planet than meets the eye.

 

Good link. I really enjoyed JN’s statement about self charging EV’s. I guess he missed the physics lesson on perpetual motion.

 

Subtract the amount of gas you will save from your payment and if any exist, subtract any state or federal incentives and you'll probably pay about the same price as it would cost you for a gas powered vehicle.

 

Using economical energy policy like Trump or the monstrosity of Biden? Because those prices create a vast difference.

 

What economical (sic) policy specifically are you referring to?

 

No (sic) needed there. Economical is a description of the policy, I meant to say it that way.

I think it’s plain to see the differences that the current and former president have on energy policy. One was great for our economy, and one is awful.

 

And are we using gas prices in CA or a state that cares about its residents wallets?

 

trump said windmills cause cancer

 

Yeah . . . that makes me laugh.

 

Anyone wonder why the facilities are being built in Kentucky and Tennessee?
Why not in one of those big Blue cities?

 

Don't leave GA. out. Then you have a fair and balanced answer.

 

they build factories out in the middle of nowhere. this needs to be explained?

 

The same reason major car and truck manufacturers moved to my state. To be free of the labor unions that turned Detroit into a wasteland.

 

Many of the new plants are in Mexico to also avoid that costly US labor (non union) cost. But I'm sure you knew that

 

Isn't that where human labor is an overpriced commodity?

 

Say what you will. In the past ten years BMW, Volvo, Boeing, Mack Trucks among others have all moved manufacturing facilities to my state. Y’all go ahead and run em all off. We will gladly open the door for them and serve them grandmas warm grits to make them all feel right at home while they toil over their move.

 

@Mopar Dude , when the left runs off companies, they leave the country.

 

(non union)? Are you suggesting that union labor is cheaper?

 

The left doesn’t want the companies . . . All they want is the money without the requisite work.
