Pickups and SUVs are also very profitable because they are sold at huge mark ups.

Tesla had the highest profit margins in the industry.

Detroit did this in the 1970s. Chrysler refused to stop selling massive cars during the gas crisis and they went bankrupt. We always bail them out.

I look forward to January when we get tariffed for snow storms.

The world’s first ex-trillionaire. Back to tres commas for you.

Dimwits who don’t know know the difference between an otter and a beaver.

This is a beaver.

He actually has a point. Turdeau was great at making bullshit policies and regulations that were entirely impotent on goals.

Carbon tax just became pay to burn.

But Carney doing fuck all is not an alternative.

Ex NDP leader Horwath approves data centers for Hamilton Wednesday. These clowns are all the same.

Can we stop signing bullshit accords no one takes seriously?

They just accessed data the government gives anyone.

So I guess we’re back to the big lie.

Barely 7% market share in NA.

Toyota is making healthy sales in hybrids.

The Honda Civic is still the best selling car in Canada.

Talk to us after 10 years of ownership.

EVs have been on the US market for 14 years and barely penetrated 7% market share. Tesla has killed half its models. Most US EV startups have gone broke.

Lemmy wants Japan to make cars no one is buying. These Japanese car companies are not funded by a cult in a Ponzi scheme, they actually have to sell cars to stay afloat.

Making a bunch of cars no one will buy I guess makes people feel better.

I know people in this industry, and they know designing cars based on internet comments is a disaster. They know to stay afloat you need to make what people buy, not fantasy cars labelled “green”.

Ford sold 823,000 F150s in 2025, up 8%. EV sales actually declined 2% in the same period.

All EVs have only a 6% market share in the US. Lemmy is full of doom for these companies, but they are actually making healthy money, unlike EV companies. Tesla is dying, Lucid is rumored broke, tons of EV companies are gone. Y’all are not buying EVs.

That was the Japanese government pushing a national industrial agenda.

The problem is Honda does not have a pipeline of raw materials to make batteries to be cost competitive with the Chinese.

Ironic that Honda is getting killed by market perturbation similar to the way they entered the world markets with the awesome original civic.

So where is the media hunting down Doug Ford and asking him to explain his cuts to the firefighting budget?

Let’s talk to the rural Ontario hicks who elect Ford.

And how many shitty fast food chains have gone broke? People are still wasting money there.

Pre roasted coffee took off at this time.
