Nice one.


Anybody in the US car game have the scoop on this car ? 300 miles on a charge is impressive.Wonder if it will be /Edge size or bigger ?

"Fields said Ford will build a battery electric SUV with a 300-mile driving range at the Flat Rock, Michigan plant by 2020 "


and

"and will launch production there by 2021 of a fully autonomous vehicle without a steering wheel or a brake pedal for use in ride services fleets."


Impressive though the fully autonomous cars still kinda scare me after all multiple Tesla fatalities so far.There are just too many variables on the road for this tech to work properly at the moment.

Here is the problem with this approach, Trump is picking on big companies but what about the little guys? Are we going to bring the apparel makers and the pencil makers back home?

Is it fair to single out one company and not the other?

Only a matter of time before this gets challenged in court.

will create 700 jobs in 4 years-----how many jobs the Obama administration created in 8 years, was that like 21 million? at 700 every 4 years Trump would create how much in 8 years? big grin

I saw a follow up to this

So Ford is still moving their plant but to a different part of Mexico to build the Ford focus

this headline was to keep Trump quiet
