That will get you on the ignore list

Already on it .

But that has been stated here many times. They aren't a car company... So none of that really matters.

Revenue be damned.

Stellantis cannot keep up with Tesla so they're going to try the layoff program perhaps hoping to be more competitive with Tesla?

199 laid off. Big woopie.
How many at Tesla?

“Stellantis CEO Carlos Tavares has said his company has to work on cutting costs globally in order to keep electric vehicles affordable for the middle class. Electric vehicles, he has said, cost about 40% more than those powered by gasoline. Without cost reductions, EVs will be too expensive for the middle class, shrinking the market and driving costs up more, Tavares has said.”

Anti-ICE mandates are hurting everyone.

For those that pay attention to stock price, I guess a big thing we'll see if it's up another 13% tomorrow or down 26% from today's close?

He promised the cheap car...

Now he just needs to deliver the cheap car...

I don't want to see Tesla fail. I just don't see them as the savior that some others do.

Fuel mix up reported at Burwell Pump and Pantry

I guess that was not a cheap mistake, but thankfully EV owners that charge at home were OK.

Hilarious. Glad I can’t mix up electricity.

That may be true now, in certain areas, based on a hypothetical gas and electricity price. To me that's deceptive advertising. What happens if our "current" price of 15c/kWh doubles and $3.45/gal. reg. goes to $2.79?

Golly, what if the cost of diesel and fertilizer go up greatly increasing the cost to farm? It is life. Then MPG$ changes. What if the cost of a BigMac increases?

If one considers a car as transportation and not concerned with jimmies, impressions, 0-60 times, stereo system, etc. then factor in $20K vs $50K...that in itself could be a marketing tool. $30K especially invested certainly buys a lot of gas & oil changes.

What is the point of the funds one "invests" if one doesn't ultimately procure something one desires?
