    I wonder if it would act as pro-Tesla or anti-Tesla to show a list of all the problems with Teslas and their current status.

      People shopping for an EV aren’t going to like the idea of steering wheels coming off or trim flying off at highway speeds.

            Ford will take a while to die, they’ve always stockpiled a lot of rainy day cash to weather out bad spells. As you’ve said they had plenty of successful decades and successful cars. They even had successful cars at the same time as the pinto so it wasn’t really a problem
