WTF are dealerships doing with their websites? That thing is such an abomination. I don't get it at all.

Who would really get their car serviced out of warranty at a BMW dealer? Not I.

NVRMND. I see the chart there. None too impressive for a flagship engine.

Edit... was blind earlier. That's a bit concerning for sure... I love tracking that sort of stuff... and I have learned multiple times that the first year of anything is super

And that thing has been turned into the dealer... he's now in an expedition... Kind of epic service really. I can't get a loaner in a 100k BMW but F150... yep.

I'd say it's because there are a lot of Ford's at a dealership, but BMW has the 2-series. Just give someone one of those.

FINALLY updated their old shitty site to be cross searchable with multiple different brands/models at the same time. That above example gave me cancer and its nearly unusable.

Ford’s EV losses aren’t entirely resting on the F-150 Lightning’s shoulders, though. The automaker has a 100-day supply of F-150s, per Auto News, though it didn’t specify how much of that supply is represented by Lightnings. Considering Ford is willing to pause production for almost two months, I’d reckon the percentage of electric pickups in its dealer stock is high. But it also has a 130-day supply of Mustang Mach-Es and a 128-day supply of e-Transit vans.
Farley says that things should be looking up for Ford’s EV business in 2025, although it’s unclear if he expects that progress to come from increased sales or reduced costs. According to Morgan Stanley analyst Adam Jonas, Ford’s EV losses are projected to drop from $5 billion to $4.4 billion in 2025.
The future of Ford EVs seems murky at the moment. This past August, it pushed back its next-gen electric pickup truck until 2027, delayed its new electric commercial van until 2026, and switched its plans for an electric three-row SUV to a plug-in hybrid. However, during this latest earnings call, Farley said Ford’s EV direction is “an area of strength” and that he “wouldn’t trade [it] for any of our competitors.”
that some massive damage. fucking hell. Evs gonna take down vw, ferd, nissan, maybe steliounus.....
