How can Ford loses 60K per EV if the EV itself is less than 60k?


My mistake Q1 2023 Ford was losing 60k per EV sold.

Goggle it yourself. Here's the first 3 that popped up for me.

Thanks for the response.

Ah, but if that person already has millions invested and spends a lot, $100K in a bank account is more reasonable than it may seem.

IMO, Trader Joe's > Costco/BJs, without paying an annual fee. Not bashing either though, to be clear.

You didn't really answer the question... if the amount on the receipt vastly exceeds your entire net worth, would you feel bad? The point is you shouldn't. nod
Ur correct. It's all about ur net worth. When I was in college, I would walk 5 extra blocks because the eggs were 10 cents cheaper, but now I won't even bother. So if you have millions and ur set, u wouldn't even worry about having 100K lying in ur checking account.

But I doubt people that wealthy walk around cashing rewards check. most wealthy get there by creating more income not saving pennies. Costco is a regula and rich ppl place not wealthy shoppers place

A few Model S vehicles seem to have no more than 10% degradation at about 10 year mark. thats about a 30 mile range loss.... Not sure where you are getting your numbers.
Boi 🤣 for that only you the premium on model S .. Model 3 and Y are not the same built at S

I've driven nothing but Toyotas for 20 years, haven't had a car payment in 10 years now. My commute is all highway miles, I use approximately $40 a week in fuel. I'll take that and the convenience of having dozens of gas stations along the way versus searching for charging stations every day of the week.

If the day ever comes that some dingbat politicians go California on us and force us to buy electric cars, I'll probably just shift to leasing them and beat the everliving 💩 out of them. I'm set with glorified golf carts.

lastly, read some of the comments from the EV cult here such as "my smart boomer friends love EVs, the rest don't buy them" this type of conceited, stuck up. snobbish attitude doesn't exactly excite me to join the battery cult.
If u don't have a car payment and u drive 40 bucks a week gas bill, then u don't even need to change to another gas car let alone EV car. It's not for u... everything is not everybody. My wife's a realtor and she is nearing 10k miles in 5 months. I can't imagine my gas bill for that. tesla is a life saver in that scenario. She comes home in evenings, plugs it in and it's ready in morning.

So far only once it has happened that she didn't plan well and she was running low on juice and then the car automatically directed it to the nearest supercharger and she sat there 20 mins watching Netflix while it was getting refilled.

To you it may but not to me - not in this high interest rate environment - it should be generating $14 in interest per-day including the weekends. So it depends upon what interest their checking account is paying. I am doing some new construction and have made several payments that are over $100K and in each case, the money is sitting in a very high yield account and it is wire transfers. So between wire transfers and credit card rewards, I don't need $100K in a low yield account.

> Costco/BJs, without paying an annual fee.

I am a executive member at Costco. That generates additional 2% on everything I buy - that pays me some pocket change after reimbursing me for the fees. People always get hung up on the wrong thing - e.g. would you pay your taxes using a credit card when the processing fee is 1.87% - most people won't. But I always use that service and charge it to card giving me 2%. So yeah - 1.87% sounds bad but when you are making more than that in credit card rewards, who cares.

> You didn't really answer the question... if the amount on the receipt vastly exceeds your entire net worth, would you feel bad? The point is you shouldn't.

I wouldn't - it is not a rat race. Life is all having fun and making choices that you want to make versus copying others like an Ape. And if the amount vastly exceeds yours, you can't even copy!

Which company? What's your coverage?
I asked my insurance company, State Farm, and the full coverage for model X is 3600/yr.
I don't have a Model X. I have a model Y. We are not comparing the same.

1100? is that just liability?
No, It's for full coverage thru Geico. I also have a perfect driving record. YMMV.

This is demonstrably untrue.

Given a two premium brands at the same price range, the Tesla will cost an average of 25% more to insure.

Google.
How are you going to tell me its not true? Are you my insurance company? Do you have my insurance declaration?

Quote from ggapropros :
The AWD and range increase makes this a decently easy choice now, frankly these cars last forever, teslas ability to make the car an appliance means youll likely keep it in your family for years upon years, youll either give it to your parents, sister, kid, etc after 8 years. $4500 over 8 years is only extra $562. Its almost "regret insurance" at that point, if every year you get into a situation where you wish you had awd and slightly more range than youll kick yourself for not having gotten this. (I also think the LR has subwoofers and rwd doesnt... but someone would have to confirm that for me)
Forever huh??? Lol post the slick deal for your Time Machine while you're at it

It seems to me the only way Tesla makes money is through Government help like this and selling carbon credits. Left alone, I believe this company would fail...badly.

Quote from Ilker2000 :
Couple things need to be added, EV credit is not refundable so you don't get money back unless you owe tax money. Other thing is that insurance is about the double for any tesla.
One point of clarification- it doesn't matter whether you owe money or not at the end of the year. You just need to have a $7500 tax liability. You're not punished for overwithholding.

For example, say you're married and make a combined $120k. Your tax liability is about $11k-

If you had $12k withheld for the year and didn't buy an EV, you would get a $1k refund. If you buy the EV, you get an $8500 refund.

If you only had $10k withheld and didn't buy an EV, you'd have a $1k tax bill. If you bought an EV, you'd have a $6500 refund.

Most people who can even consider buying a $40k+ car will have enough tax liability to get the full $7500 benefit.
