MAGA results in manufacturing. Tennessee loses $2.6B megafactory and faces major layoffs

We are going to have a GLUT of heavy TRUCK / SUV Full size gas hogs that most cannot afford to fuel. As such, recycle of young auto's is what I see happening unless they find a way to export the used trucks / SUVs to alternative markets that have cheap gas. We will never have cheap gas again. Need to cut off the 10's of billions of tax dollars given to the oil companies for nothing more than pure profit to the 1%. Agree, the writing is on the wall, Tesla is in decline especially with a racist idiot CEO / Chairman getting his stock but not really able to lead the company. I expect sales to continue to drop even next year as others eat up the market with superior product. The only thing Tesla could become is a global Charging company. Forget the AI / Robot BS as Tesla is already way behind China, Japan and Korea in robot technology. Already they are now behind top EV vendors from China and Korea, America has pretty much other than Rivian given up on any leadership to the globe. European will be interesting to see what happens there, but BYD and Korea seem to be the leaders.

Amazing how we have progressed in airplane technology.

Currently the BYD office in California has delayed indefinitely the importation of the Han EV sedan. While BYD builds EV Buses in California for the NA market, EV autos for private purchase were going to be imported for the market, but sadly Idiot47 has caused that to be an issue. Have to say it is a clean nice looking 4 door sedan with 375 miles of range. https://www.byd.com/us/car/han-ev

Have to say they nail it here, Genesis hits luxury, with reliability and performance without the Euro Price tag. https://www.howtogeek.com/korean-luxury-sports-sedan-reliability-and-performance/ This is another point that I feel EVs has taken away as 0-60mph means NOTHING in the EV era. https://www.howtogeek.com/heres-how-evs-are-making-zero-to-60-times-irrelevant/

WOW, Another exec leaves, Tesla is a Dead Company walking. Tesla loses another exec: Cybertruck chief is leaving the Musk-led EV maker I feel the Democrats caved in and will get nothing out of this. The Democrats who backed Republican shutdown deal - and why Another MAGA FAILURE as Intel lays off another 15,000 and guts a factory no longer building chips here. Intel Guts Oregon Plant—15,000 Laid Off as ‘America’s Chip King’ Loses Billions Per Quarter

Busy weekend, planted 562 garlic for the 2025-2026 growing season in the following types: Persian Star 63 Early 53 Montana 77 Korean 105 Inchelium 75 Metechi -36 Susan 75 Spanish 5 Russian Red 73 Over the fall/winter/spring will finish the raised garden area, build additional beds on the ground like my 3 large beds and will finish my new ramp. Russian Red was planted in ground since I did not have enough raised beds yet. Temp Ground bed.

Could be a Maga GOP Comfort party for all the losses they took recently. 🤪

Post the link, I would be interested in taking the test to see what it says about me.

Ugly, big ugly All the signs of an imminent financial crash in America ICE and Home Land Security are two departments that now need to be closed due to incompetent leadership and clearly racist and illegal actions. Prosecute all who have broken the law and close these departments. Time to fold both of these duties into the FBI or one of the other agencies. ICE and CBP's aggressive tactics may have finally gone too far

Overpriced for sure, from the folks around here who have the Ford Pickup trucks and Mach-e's people who own them love them. Price seems to be the major sticking point, and I can see it getting bad word of mouth due to the price, especially in the Midwest and south where average income levels are way below the average selling price. Be interesting to see what Ford does as they have announced their commitment to still move forward and build and use the Ford BlueOval EV campus in Tennessee. I do not see the F150 Lighting being killed off as they have recently with the base core campus completed said the second generation of the truck which is supposed to move to 800V from the current 400V will start production in 2028 with the battery line at BlueOval City. This is a push back of 1 year as they will slow down production and keep current EVs for now as they build up profits with a renewed focus on ICE. https://fordauthority.com/2025/09/ford-blueoval-city-construction-completed-despite-ev-pickup-delay/ Ford delays mass production at BlueOval City in TN: What we know WOW, So much for being the state for Businesses to grow and employe people as they continue to lay folks off, and run a higher unemployment rate than the nation. Another round of mass layoffs slams Texas workforce

OUCH, this will make some auto nuts cry. Crash At Mecum Takes Out Corvettes and Pontiac Trans Am

Car fans will be happy with this as long as you do not want AA/CP. Two New GM Cars Coming To U.S. Based On A RWD Platform

Tesla giving a Trillion dollars to Idiot Musk will not fix their sales problem or the fact that the stock is grossly overvalued. Tesla is DEAD EV driving, old tech, dinosaur in the marketplace.

Yes, a dog cannot do that but then a dog does not spend so much time licking itself and coughing up furballs. Pass, Labs for the Win for me.

Very cool to see his all woman team. Zohran Mamdani announces an all-female leadership team for his transition including former FTC Chair Lina Khan

WOW, I have not seen any old iron like that in years around here. Pretty much rare to see old iron, just 50% EVs, 50% ICE trucks/SUVs

Interesting read Why American workers are ‘coffee badging' their way through hybrid jobs

I can honestly say that as a big guy, getting into Toyota Prius is hard as well as out as they sit so damn low. The Honda Civics are easier for me to get into and out of compared to the Prius on the road today. This will be interesting to see what the interior space is for this new prelude once it hits the lots.

FYI - Anyone that says we are not heading into a bad recession if not full depression is drinking way too much MAGA Cool aid. US layoffs for October surge to two-decade high, Challenger data shows Appears ICE is using facial recognition software to determine if they should arrest you. ICE's use of smartphones to determine citizenship could trigger the next constitutional crisis This I would agree with would be a boon for everyone, but the auto industry especially. A ruling striking down Trump's tariffs would be like rocket fuel for stocks

This is so cool, a real review of the G90 luxury car from Genesis. Cool technology.

As one that was raised on support America first, the current incompetent leadership has changed that for ever for me. I will no longer worry about companies here that do not care about the consumer when others do a better job. Let the best products win and while my heart strings pull for some of the history of past models, the future is where it is and I will move. This place is building lovely new auto's Cannot go wrong with this baby! They are nailing it with their concepts and I hope they bring them to production.
