Interestingly, I drove past a Ford dealer today and noticed they had put all their F150 Lightnings and Mach-e’s out near the road promoting them. It wasn’t an insignificant number. No one wants them.
I find the idea of them interesting (technology and power), but the batteries hold them back. The mining is highly destructive to the land and they are mined with child labor. Additionally, who would trust a battery in an ev that was more than 5 to 8 years old? Meaning used EV’s will be near worthless; making them, essentially, disposable cars.

Reality is a cruel mistress.
There's a recall on the mach e for punching the sissy pedal too hard
