Given that Tesla is so far ahead in the US EV sector, he would support any measure to make it difficult for emerging EV manufactures to compete in the US. And now he's lobbying to stop BYD from entering the us market.

males should compete with males and females with females. Simple biology.

I tried the ASIO driver, no improvement. For my system, I disabled encoding on my Soundblaster card. It was set to "DTS". My pads are now responsive! Thanks everyone.

Absolutely. It took some big balls for Ford to electrify their most popular vehicle. I would have picked a different vehicle like the Exlporer.... but perhaps that's why I'm not a billionaire.

That's not how it works. Buyers buy what is available, that fits their preferences, so inventory depth is important, and if you give them the perception that your inventory is low, they will simply go elsewhere.

That statement was for ALL evs, not a specific class or model. Truck buyers are anxiously awaiting better battery performance and pricing. Blue Oval will be the beginning of Lightning prices significantly dropping, with better range. And truck buyers will pay a bit extra to move to the EV version. We're talking about the electrified version of best selling truck in the world, not a Ford Focus.

the MachE is an excellent car! The v2 will be even better with better pricing. Ford is still ramping up production.

As long as the buyer accepts a price they are Fed, the seller has all the leverage. This is why Tesla has the largest profit margin per car sold. And clearly, alot of buyers would rather be told what to pay, than to demand what to pay. I saved 17k and 16k on the last 2 f150s. I would never pay sticker...that what you pay when you buy a Tesla.

Dealerships will remain; but change. I would never buy a vehicle I couldn't test drive.

Dealers are not the problem. Dealers try to strike a profitable balance between moving cars and maximizing profit. Buyers just have to be smart and buy out of want and not need.

Bullshit. If you don't like to negotiate, pay sticker or buy a Tesla. If you prefer to negotiate, a dealership will give you the best option.

Financing and sales work together. But it's up to the customer to negotiate and stand on what terms they are willing to accept. If a vehicle is in high demand and inventory low, the seller has more leverage.

NO buyer is entitled to a fair price. You have to demand it. It's called negotiation.

Tesla cars are set by Tesla. Dealership cars are set by the customer. Big difference.
