I just put my reservation in for the Ford F150 Lightning, cost me $100 down payment and if I ever take delivery I dont expect it for a couple years. Hey maybe something will change and I never take delivery. I got the ball rolling anyway. Tesla maybe. For the money the Tesla truck is a superior product at a more affordable price than the F150.

Ford Lost $130,000 on Every EV It Sold in the First Quarter
130,000 lost on each vehicle sold.

Lot of hypocrisy on this thread. Many government "subsidies" all over the place:
Farming
Manufacturing
Start up companies
Big oil
Green energy
Unemployment
Food stamps
Government bailouts of risky venture capitalists that put all their eggs in risky banking institutions that failed while trying to maximize profits
Etc. Etc. Etc.
EV's are just one of many subsidized sectors of the US economy.

Don’t forget the carbon credit system. Governments raise the fuel efficiency/emissions standards to unattainable levels for manufacturers of ICE vehicles only. Those manufacturers then purchase carbon credits from the EV manufacturers like Tesla to the tune of $1.79 billion in 2023 alone and nearly $9 billion since 2009.
I don’t care if they are gas, electric , solar or cooking oil, or flatuance powered. But wish they would get the self driving cars perfected. As an “OLD GEEZER”
Me own self, realize day coming when skills erode to point of giving up being behind the wheel. Never want to have to beseech other's for my transport issues…
So get those cars safe, and while you’re at it, make d a m n sure they can pull and launch/retrieve my 14 footer!!!
