Three of the biggest producers of eIectric vehicles are reportedly set to pump the brakes on production, citing a bad economy and higher interest rates thanks to Joe Biden’s bad economic poLicies.
Tesla, General Motors, and Ford all have said they plan to slow production essentially until the economy shows some signs of settIling down. Tesla CEO Elon Musk joined General Motors and Ford in voicing concerns that high-interest rates on car purchases would prevent borrowers from securing financing for expensive electric vehicles. Musk said, People hesitate to buy a new car if there’s uncertainty in the economy. I don’t want to be going into top speed into uncertainty.
Musk also is pIanning to take a wait-and-see approach to the economy before ramping up the planned Tesla factory in Mexico. Musk’s comments came after poor quarterly results across the board.
Not only were Tesla’s sales down, but so were earnings per share and vehicle production.
General Motors, for their part, has plans to delay production of the electric Silverado and GMC Sierra pickup trucks by a year, citing flattening demand for the electrified vehicles.
Over at Ford Motors, they are cutting one of the three shifts that currentIy builds the electric F-150 Lightning pickup truck. The automaker made this decision following a summer where they took some of the focus off of electric, instead looking toward commercial fIeet vehicles and hybrids.
Gordon Ramsay shares important message after potentially fatal accident
Gordon Ramsay is grateful to be alive and attributes his survival to the helmet, which he claims saved his life, in addition to the physicians, nurses, and other staff at the hospital in Connecticut.
During the Father’s Day weekend, the well-known chef used social media to tell his followers a terrifying tale. Even a week following the incident, Ramsay was still uneasy.
“I had a pretty bad bike accident in Connecticut this week,” he added. “I’m okay, I didn’t break any bones or have any serious injuries, but I do look like a purple potato with all the bruises.”
An enthusiastic cyclist, Ramsay clarified that wearing a helmet is vital no matter how “short the journey is” or that helmets are expensive because they are “crucial.”
“I’m fortunate to be in this position. I’m hurting. “I’m slowly making my way through this tough week,” Ramsay remarked, lifting his shirt to display a large bruise.
The Hell’s Kitchen star also uploaded pictures of his accident both before and after.
Gordon Ramsay’s recovery makes me very happy. The fact that you can see his bruise and the damage his helmet caused serves as a great reminder of how important it is to always wear a helmet!
