That's total nonsense. The Lightning is a new vehicle and the ramp-up is a real thing. It's completely separate from the change-over from cars to SUVs and trucks, which is 100% consumer-driven. If you prefer a cheaper sedan, then buy one - they still exist. If enough people buy them they will become scarce and the price and profit will rise. Then they'll make more of such more profitable vehicles.

The move away from sedans is driven by people being richer than they complain to not be on reddit.

It's funny how almost overnight WEF just became a thing they all obsesses about and blame for all their problems.

Almost like all these channels they glue themselves to are connected and spread the same shit.

It's even funnier when you consider Putin regularly spoke at WEF and supported it.

Zero sympathy for the people who keep buying utility vehicles they don’t use for utility. Electric or not. Yes companies are gouging, yes I’m upset about it, but almost No one buying these $70,000 luxury trucks needs them or uses them for anything but stroking their own ego.

90% of the trucks in this country are small-peen bro-dozers.

Guns are a religion to some here. Some people believe the constitution was divinely inspired (not shitting you) so basically everything in it (well up until reconstruction) was sent from on high.

You can't question the 2nd amendment or the current interpretation of the 2nd amendment w/out questioning the whole religion.
