Where can I buy an electric Ford Focus?
On the used market? It was discontinued in 2018. A quick Google search found several for sale.
Ford currently has Explorer and Mustang as full EVs, but also the Puma among others from sometime next year.
Ugh I'm so annoyed by the SUVification of vehicles
I am a wagon fan. I had long wondered why Europe had all these nice wagons and here in the US we had countless crappy SUV models and very few (if any) wagons. Back in the 70's and 80's emissions were the reason manufacturers moved from car-based larger capacity vehicles to truck-based. They simply did not have to meet nearly the same emissions requirements. Sucks for you consumer (and environment)!
That was a compliance car and it's not even remotely competitive with a modern EV, so no thanks.
Not hard to be worse than musk when you lived from 1863-1947 lol.
Yeah, being anti-semitic and racist is kinda the default for white folks back then, source half my ancestry is rich white folks the other half is poor white folks.
I have it on good authority that he's not involved in the day to day running of the corporation.
He's been dead for 76 years.
Hello and welcome to the 21st century.
Seeing the new mustang I definitely believe Henry Ford is still at the helm of this ship directing Ford from the depths of hell.
You mean Edsel.
Henry Ford died almost 30 years before Elon Musk was even born.
Yeah? He’s been dead for decades. Who cares?
It sounds like you hate the idea of self driving cars... Weird
When I rent cars I usually reserve a Toyota Corolla, they are usually the cheapest or second cheapest rental category and they come with adaptive cruise with 3 choices of follow distance and I've been really impressed with it, as Subaru driver.
I hate the idea of "self-driving" cars Elon-style with no LIDAR.
