It boils down to what Ford can do within the limitations of CAFE.    Given how much a new car goes for with a financing adding another $50-100 to a monthly payment, I think lower income buyers are going to be stuck buying used or paying outright for an older vehicle if they are that short on funding. 

Unfortunately, I don't have that breakout.

Could clarify OAP numbers in particular HD.  What is HD? 650-750 or 600, 650 750  In any case appreciate what you do for sure.

If economy struggles, HEV and PHEV options may lose market share to more affordable ICE.  Buyers on tighter budgets may not care as much if BS offers hybrid options.  Fuel savings alone takes a long time to pay for higher vehicle costs so IMO much will depend on whether buyers run the numbers; assuming of course hybrid premium remains the same which is not a given.

Seems to me I did see an earlier version that did not have the snorkel-which to me was always used for vehicles that might be "Fording"😀...But would it help with dust ?  Seems like it would to some degree as long as you are the first vehicle kicking up dust.  As for dust, what about a "pre cleaner" someplace that provides quick access so you could routinely and easily blow it out with air or water. For sure a bigger problem for our Aussie friends than us.   If it comes to the US, make it a smaller size package-super cab or conventional cab that capitalizes on its towing capabilities as well as GVW appealing to commercial/ag markets.  Forget about the "look at me crowd"..let them buy the aftermarket crap on their own.

What can happen other than prices going up one way or another unless tariffs are rescinded?  This pricing program may help short term as a bandaid but I’m more concerned beyond June 2.

I'd say this has a 0.1% chance of coming here.  Remember these markets don't have F-150 or Super Duty (F-250+), so this gives them a stronger option in a smaller footprint.    

Well I hope he looks at Tahoe, Escalade and the GMC versions with their crisp looks instead of the current "chunky"-can't think of a better word-look  then they currently have.  this guy came from Riviana?  If so look at the Rivian SUV too..also much better IMO than the Lincoln versions.

This report says basically any of the specialty models aren't eligible (any Raptors, Super Duties, or specialty Bronco/Mustang models, as well as '25 Expy/Navi)....basically they're throwing it on everything they have excess inventory of lol.   Ford's Employee Pricing For Everyone Won't Get You a Cheap Raptor

Eh, I still think Mach E sits too low to appeal to Edge buyers.     If they're going to drop Escape, they need to add a Bronco Sport "Max" (LWB) AND a hybrid model (on regular and L), so that they can have a better ICE segment offering.
