More on EVs from a guy trying to sell them

There are lots of articles with opinions pro and con about EVs, but here are some actual text message comments by a guy I know who has been selling Fords for at least 10 years now:

Me: Are you still working at the Ford place? How are things going there?

Him: Sales are OK, but the economy is still screwed up. That and the EV BS that Ford is trying to shove down our throats.

Me: Yes, I've heard that Ford is all-in on EVs. Way too soon, and a major mistake, IMO. Are the EV pickups and Mach-Es selling?

Him: They are pretty much just sitting on our lot. Other mfrs have the same problems.
