Ford pauses a $12 billion EV investment, after saying electric vehicles are too expensive

Ford has halted billions of dollars in investment in EV manufacturing, warning that customers will not pay a premium for these vehicles.

The auto giant announced in its third-quarter earnings call on Thursday that it would postpone $12 billion in planned spending on electric vehicle production and
d pause some major projects, including the construction of a new battery factory in Kentucky.

And people have been criticizing Toyota for years for not jumping into the EV space with both feet and focusing on hybrids as the more promising 'intermediate' technology instead. That's looking like pretty smart long-term thinking these days.

Beer cap shots

9 mm handguns

50 yards, off hand

I guess Mark and I need some practice... Lol

50 yards? 9mm handgun and offhand with regular sights? Well shyte then, I will most likely miss the friggin tree trunk, never mind the bottle cap! I realized long ago that some people are just not good with guns and that's OK. If there should be any kind of war, my plan is to wear a dress and tend to the wounded in some infirmary not that I know any shyte about healing either!

Please thank Miss Abigail on my behalf. That young lady is so considerate but nary a worry. I'm just an ol' fool who's lived ~ 3/4 of his natural life already. Come what may, it has been a great ride :) Marc can don that dress on though as it may not fit me ;)
 
Ugh. Huge pet peeve.

Most of us on this sub remember having to go to a library to look for books with the info we were looking for (or hoping to find someone who could and would share that info).

Info available literally at their fingertips, and it seems like many (most?) people nowadays simply don't care enough to bother. 😕
Dewey decimal system!
 
I guess Nathan's not going to say anything so I'll have to brag on myself. I won over a women's today and Bennirboo won overall men's. Sue Ann came in second. CPK rocks!
