It would be simpler then that-you already have an existing workforce at LAP and wouldn't have "grow" one at TTP immediately.    I can't remember the timeline for T3, but wasn't closer to 2028 or so? 

Yep, I pay attention to small details.  Like including D&D in the actual starting price.  $1595 D&D for Fathom isn’t chump change (on second thought, perhaps it is when you consider the $2795 D&D charge for F150) .  Manufacturers not including this charge in their marketing material when advertising the “starting price” isn’t anything new, but I don’t agree with hiding “fees” in fine print (you know, similar to those dealer fees that some take exception to).  

Unless you mean the Chevy Bolt, which I would agree is a great deal and GM shouldn’t discontinue it, even with the extended range battery option this should be several $1,000’s cheaper than the base models for the Ioniq 5 and Equinox EV which have ~240 and ~320 miles of range. 

I believe Google Gemini is misquoting the Tesla user guide which says you should charge it to 100% **at least** once per week. 

I’m still wondering if the UEV’s open box build and simplified electrics is a pathway for replacing C2, the UEV + range extender could be a way to reorganise products and eliminate a lot of C2’s inherent expensive construction costs…gotta be a way of having your cake and eating it too…

And that Makes sense Fuzzy, I get a little annoyed  at the spin I see on certain YouTube videos regarding  dealerships loaded up with older plate high series trucks and SUVs. I smile because we all know that every one of those vehicles will get sold eventually and Ford will still make a profit on them.

Agree, Pretty obvious Ford selling the base RWD Fathom for a sub $30k MSRP, that’s the headline it wants and you’re right, drive away price will be more, so will AWD and long range battery. Even so, a sub $40K drive away price would be very appealing to the buyers that Ford is really after.

Just as an example:   MSRP doesn't include Destination Charge    Fathom has a starting MSRP of $28,350 and adding the Destination charges is just being Punctilious

That one would be pretty solid because Ford has stated that new Ford Pro product would go into OHAP in the next year or two. 

Again from the Detroit News, the dealer who saw it said it has traits of the Porsche Panamera.
