US Big Three auto companies commit to making cars that people don’t want, writes StephenMoore.

Both my mother and father made a solemn vow that as long as they lived, they wouldbuy a German or a Japanese car. No matter how well they were made. They were the enemies. They were the ones who killed nearly half a million Americans. Period.And that value system was transported to me. In honor of my parents’ values, I couldn’t in good conscience buy a Japanese or German car.

But it’s one thing to make cars that appeal to members of the Sierra Club and quite another to produce automobiles that the typical buyer wants. And guess what? So far, most people have turned a decisive thumbs-down on EVs. All of this is to say that there’s a decent chance the American auto companies’ shift to all EVs is going to fail. This could even be the most epic failure for American car companies since Ford introduced the Edsel.

Toyoda wasn’t done. “I believe we need to be realistic about when society will be able to fully adopt Battery Electric Vehicles,” he explained. “And frankly, BEVs are not the only way to achieve the world's carbon neutrality goals."

StephenMoore I have nothing against electric vehicles. Bought one to ease the pain at the pump from long daily commutes. Also bought a Dodge Ram 1500 several years ago. Now retired I don’t really have to worry much about fuel costs. And I’m skeptical about the EV’s impact on the environment.

StephenMoore If America is still ‘capitalist’, Americans won’t have to buy cars they don’t like. There will be other choices

StephenMoore I haven’t purchased a car from one of them 3 in 25 years and have no plans to do so in the future. All 3 hate the American worker hence they continue to shutter factories and move work outside the USA.

StephenMoore Anyone want to take bets on how long before all three companies lock their doors?

StephenMoore You mean like ElectricVehicles ? 😲
