I have noticed 100s of comments on other Mache sites but not a word here on the impact of tariffs here. Simply, Mustang Mache from Mexico coming to the US will be hit with a 25 percent Tariff. Mach-e are built in Mexico only. Ford CEO talked to President Trump yesterday and he agreed to waive the tariff until April.

We've got plenty to complain about already with OTA's and HVJB's :bandit:
Truth is there's probably not many people here looking to buy another MME for some time.

Because: (1) there is nothing we can do about it, (2) it changes every day like a pair of dirty underpants, and (3) with so much to worry about in the world and in my Mach-E, who has time to worry about tariffs.

That horse has been beaten to death here, then resurrected so it could be beaten again. I don’t think there’s anything more to be said.

You can't keep a good horse down.

Ford complains about how they lose money with the MachE. So does this tariff thing matter? They will sell less Mach E. It's an aging EV now. Ford might've shifted production of its next gen EV stateside.

Because you will get banned if you engage in political posts. The admin checks every Sunday morning and makes a point of banning a couple members.

If you want deep off topic politics go to the Bolt forum. The post on tariffs is now into religion and "would Buddha drive an EV". Not much exciting going on with those cars so 95% of the action is off topic.

Why have you started 2 of these threads, don’t you think that is excessive? ?

Did you read the terms of use when you joined the group? No Pollitics was prominent. This topic is too prone to devolution into a political storm that will get shut down by mods.
