While some may think and say it's the worst pollution and ban oil. They are the ignorant ones. How is oil made? If you don't know the answer then do some research.

Tariffs reduce sales, if no American wanted to buy foreign made EVs there would be no reason to put a tariff on them. It's protectionism of US vehicle manufactures at the expense of the average Joe who has to pay double for a cheap EV. Simple. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And will not own one now, for sure. Where is that lady to answer our concerns about this? She got off lightly last night.

Ron Wagner + 688 Monday at 04:12 AM It is more like just a total vehicle sales collapse now. Stellantis is closing out Dodge, Chrysler, Ram Trucks, and Jeep. Many thousands of unsold Jeeps are owned by dealers that are now 2003, 2004, and 2005 models. Dealers are being left to fail without help from Stellantis. Ford, Chevy, and all the others are suffering from lack of sales. This is due to jacking up prices to unaffordable prices. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
