I hesitated to even post this video, as I would rather Zac and Jessie not get any more views but in the end I think it shows how rabid they've become. If you don't own a Tesla, you are nothing to them. It's clear their mission is not to move to a green economy, but it is to pump Tesla.
They really, truly believe that the Cybertruck will (a) be released (I personally question whether it will ever even go to production), (b) be released on time, (c) appeal to the same people who the Ford F-150 appeals to (well, I live in Texas, the state that buys the most F-150s and I can definitely tell you that ain't true) and that it will almost single-handedly kill Ford.
They move on to knock Ford's range extender (e.g., generator). They clearly don't know construction. Contractors (like the ones who drive F-150s) already drive around with generators for the job site. Imagine if you didn't have to do that anymore, and your vehicle *comes with its own generator*! It is a fantastic idea and does double-duty as not only a range extender, but a job site tool.
Third, in a move that I legitimately don't know whether they are just that dumb or they are intentionally misleading, they show Ford's balance sheet for 2019 vs. 2020 and say, "Look nobody wants to buy Fords their sales are dropping" but they completely fail to mention "the elephant in the room" (you know what I mean, we shall not mention it's name) which is the cause. They say, "but Tesla is still selling lots of vehicles" .. and again, are they just that stupid? Tesla is selling vehicles that were reserved *before* the "we shall not mention its name" started. And, they are selling only the highest-priced versions (to rich folks, who are not impacted by "we shall not mention its name"). Clearly construction and business (the main buyers of the F-150) are the most impacted by "we shall not mention its name".
Last, and pertinent to us here on the forum, they address the Mach E. Quotes, "They couldn't even make enough of these if they wanted"; "What about it, first of all its not out yet" (but yet they are so confident in the Cybertruck which is still at least 2 years away?) With respect to Ford dropping the Mach E price, they say, "probably because sales are soft".
Here is the link to the video so you can fact-check me in context. But, do with with ad block on, please.
