  • Ford Loses $60k On Each EV It Makes
    Ford went bullish on EV, imposed by our government and has recently reported its first-quarter financials for 2023 showing that the losses at its 'Model e' EV division are widening. The Blue Oval lost over $60,000 for every EV sold in those three months, which means that investors weren't thrilled.

    Ford needs to wait on other "legacy" automakers and not bow to government bureaucracy.

  • The Truth About Electric Vehicles and Their Environmental Impact
    Electric vehicles (EVs) are often touted as a more environmentally-friendly alternative to traditional gasoline-powered cars. While it's true that EVs produce zero emissions at the tailpipe, their overall impact on the environment depends on several factors, including the source of the electricity used to charge them.

    If the electricity used to charge EVs comes from renewable sources like wind or solar, then the overall impact on the environment is relatively low. However, if the electricity is generated from fossil fuels like coal or natural gas, then the impact on the environment can be significant.

    Additionally, the production of EV batteries can be resource-intensive and generate significant carbon emissions, although efforts are being made to improve battery recycling and reduce these impacts.
