SethInMI 160 #7 July 17 yeah, posted in another thread about this. Could it be a ploy by Musk to save EV tax credits? Trump has their repeal high in his priority list, but I can see him dropping opposition pretty quickly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SethInMI 160 #11 July 17 Elon has come out against the EV tax credits, so shooting himself in the foot. His argument is all EV manf get dinged and Tesla is better prepared to handle the drop in sales. Also he has said "end all the tax credits" assuming incl fossil fuel based ones.

Must have seen the Harris polling. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
