    Bad news, that will leave a lasting bad first impression for anyone who has just bought their first EV.

    The automotive industry is well known for it's Spin Doctors and marketing BS.

    "...isn't too worried"


    But less than 5 weeks later... a complete back flip.

    And how annoyed would you be at buying your first EV last Monday, only to learn the following day your beloved planet-saving, never-charged-by-fossil-fuels,right?-EV was up to 15% cheaper.

    But Ford "isn't worried'.
    Yeah, right.

    (And if you were ignorant to the fact, the Mach-E is the 3rd best selling EV in the world's biggest economy.)

    And Tesla, with their sudden price reductions.
    You'd have to be a complete fool, or have more money than common sense to buy an EV right now.

    And lets' not talk about plummeting re-sale value for those who were silly enough to have already bought one.
    You'd be lucky to break even with the perceived saving on fossil fuel vs the depreciation and higher up-front purchase price.

    But please, everybody buy an EV.
    I'd like to go back to receiving divvies.
