I just read a whole article about the price of a car and don't know the price of the car. "Journalism"

And even a replying comment doesn't say the price.

Yeah...sure it is. My brother ordered one 3 years ago and it was delivered last year - during which Ford hiked the price twice, removed features from the trim package, etc.

Each time he was given an opportunity to back out with a full refund of his deposit.

I'm pretty sure they were just trying to cut down the number of required deliveries while they figured out production problems - this discount is probably just returning to pre-hike pricing.

Quick google says $40k. Not expensive, but definitely not a "cheap" EV.
