I believe that the tax credit expires 2 quarters after a company hits the 200K production limit for EV so there is some buffer. However I'm not sure where Ford is on qualifying EVs.

I was thinking iced blue silver metallic resembled Robocop blue. After seeing a Mach-e in the same color I think a better color marketing name for Ford is Liquid Metal Blue since it chameleons between silver and blue depending upon the lighting.

I think this is one of the most important software features that needs added. I guess it hides the mess many chargers are in right now but it is critical to know what you are getting into car to plan stops especially since the charge rate changes as the battery hits different percentage levels.

Here is the full transcript from the Ford 1Q earnings call, I don't see any immediate changes this year based on the discussion other than it's likely the fleet lightnings SR are already LFP as was previously announced and Ford will likely add a lower performance model with cheaper battery as...
