    The beauty of Hollywood accounting spreading to other industries. Ford Motor Company sells their cars for an on book loss after sales incentives like sub-prime financing through Ford Credit. Ford Credit then makes a profit due to interest payments thus wiping out the loss on the vehicle sale.


  • Driving an EV is like driving a single speed manual, not an automatic, especially if it has any amount of performance. The throttle response is instantaneous, no waiting for the torque converter, shifting, or power building. Also, when driving in a high regeneration mode, letting off the pedal feels like downshifting a gear or two. It’s super engaging and the instant response feels so smooth and natural.
