Ford features profit gain. They are doing fine. As to their EV sector I cannot say, though with access to SC soon there may be more incentives to purchase a Ford EV.

My comment is a jest to the Ford is doomed hyperbole.
Profit in ICE..... the future of vehicles lol

~7% of vehicles sold in US are EV, and ~2%(1.2%EV) of current cars on the road are EV.

There is a long way to go in terms of efficiency, economics, and political engagement. That being said I am rooting for EVs, for many reasons.

And I’m sure OEM see this coming.

Nope.... those be tourist words. I live there....

If you frequent the same "tourist" locales... you are right and it also depends on time of year.... March-May blows as does Sept-Oct. Outside of that its pretty damed clear. Ran Poison Spider in November... only 1 other vehicle over the 5 hour ride. It was wonderful. Know your times to run the trails.

That said... if you want the best stuff... you go south of Moab into the Needles area....

Beef Basin... Indian Creek... 6 shooters...Lockhart Basin...Cottonwood Creek...Bridger Jack.... Google it... you have no idea.

Already said WAYYYYYYYYYY too much... but lets just say I have run that during Jeep Safari and never saw another human being or Jeep on those trails. But I am totally cool with everyone thinking what you said :)

I see the concerns. Very very few people have 30k credits. Let’s say 50 tops.
That’s a day or two of production

this is nothing other than Tesla clearing the credits off the books. Don’t worry guys :)
You may be right, but it rewards people who are already making money (I.e., YouTubers) by using their broad exposure to ask people to give them referrals whereas the rest of us might have a friend here and there over the course of years to get a referral, and inevitably Tesla doesn’t give points when we do get referrals. It is only those with a daily presence that can get referrals over a short period of time. Tesla is thus doing this on purpose and it boils my blood. Yesterday I watched @dirtytesla tell the world that he cashed in on the 30,000 point offer and then spent a bunch of time justifying it. I wish he had kept his mouth shut and kept the whole thing to himself. I saw it as boasting and there is enough of that kind of crap in the world.

I’m so trolled. Just let us pay an extra $10k to expedite the Cyberbeast. The wait is excruciating :confused: Since I ordered the CT in 2019, I’ve purchased 5 Teslas, a Tesla Solar Roof, 3 Powerwalls and even preordered a Roadster. I also bought a Model Y for mom and one for my wife, convinced countless amounts of friends and family to buy one, referred an Uber Driver and received no points from any of these activities :cautious: ugh
As a longtime shareholder I thank you. Sucker.

I wonder how many people will cancel because of this. I don’t see the point in letting your already customers skip the line to piss off most likely a lot of your new customers.
And existing customers!

i’m not bitching about when i get to take delivery of my CT. At least not yet.

I’m bitching about the negative effect of this referral program on other CT reservation holders in a state like Virginia or Ohio.
Why not all reservation holders? You are only complaining because you cannot get referral credits? Like any normal person can…

My fav was when someone asked Dirty Tesla if he will be the first CT in Michigan. His response. I better be with blowing smoke out nose emoji.

If I get mine before his I will drive it back to our other house in Michigan. Then up and down his streets of Holly MI to annoy him. Might cost me a grand in electricity, but it will be worth it. What a bag.

This is bs i will get my fs in 2025 now
Yep, this seems almost like a grift.....first asking waiting buyers to buy an inflated price to get your truck early, then trying to push early delivery if you use your points. Just make the truck already and stop trying to up-sell your customers.

What a BS tactics for sure. I have a CTCB order from OR and eagerly waiting. The only reason I’m still here and commenting is I liked the CT too much. I cannot skip it now. This is probably true for a lot of you folks and my sympathies to you. I just wished they didn’t do this kind of trickery like many car dealers do.
