I'm sure Ford is furious. They have committed $6B to Blue Oval City near Memphis.

Last I heard, construction is ongoing, but for how long who knows?

The plant is supposed to mfr hybrids, but was orig supposed to mfr electric F 150 pick up trucks.

Not sure what they were thinking, as rednecks still see the Prius as a "hippie mobile." So not sure who would want an electrc F150. Certainly not contractors who often haul loads of materials & workers.

Not only does charging take a long time, but leaves vehicle owners vulnerable to car jackings, assaults, rapes, etc. because they are stuck there sometimes for hours.

I'm sure the kremlin will applaud the demise of the American auto industry.
