This system had allowed automakers to sell or trade credits that they earned when their fleet outdid the fuel-efficiency targets to other automakers, typically leading companies with lineups full of gas cars to buy credits from EV makers like Tesla.

The Trump regime is openly, proudly, anti-EV, yet Ford's Farley the Fool is spending Billions to tool up Louisville Assembly to produce a dedicated EV pickup, that is the same size, and at the same pricepoint, as the Maverick hybrid pickup the company already makes.
