The whole plant will be on TLO for 10-12 months. I'm assuming the 69 that took the SRI will retire when they go on TLO. The lump sum is $50,000. Im not at LAP, so I don't know all the details. This info came from LAP Building Chairman. We are waiting at KTP to see if they will offer the same to us.
Okay so i’m trying to understand your reply. 69 people signed up for the Retirement package? Because that’s what sri stands for: Special Retirement Incentive. So when you say “they” will be layed off you can’t be talking about those 69 people. But since you say they were offered SRI Packages then everyone will want to know two things: How Much MONEY was it and WHEN are they retiring?
- A 1,000 hp hybrid powertrain
- Won't look like a bronco or a truck, so likely an actual supercar body, but it will be more hardcore than Lamborghini and Porsche off-road supercars.
- Highly digital experience
- Could be a 2 seater, or 4.
- Will be a dedicated supercar and won't share a platform with things like a bronco or f-150 raptor
- He wants Ford to make a supercar that's highly differentiated from other supercars on sale.
So I'm envisioning like a next gen supercar body on raptor style suspension with most likely a mid-mounted 1,000 hp hybrid setup. That's pretty badass.
He talks about the off-road supercar in the later half of the interview, I was surprised he was so open about it. Pretty solid interview overall.
Being in Orlando,that's the biggest benefit, letting people know it's the tourists paying quite a bit...even from one county to another, I rather pump in my county, where it goes into our roads, than the county next to it, which depends in much more tourism than we do. So it's still a conversation policy makers are currently discussing.
Hey guys, we should probably get off the topic of politics before we derail this thread. Maybe we can continue some of this conversation in a non-automotive thread.
Good point. Aka, no silver bullet way to do it.
Which would revert to the tax added to public chargers that could help with the revenue for out-of-state travelers.
Maybe a base "alternate fuel vehicle" charge like you have, plus a per kwh "gas tax" on public charging? Possibly waiving those charges so you're not double taxed if you live in state (with documentation to back it up).
