> Ford reorganized back in March so that their EV business (Model e) is separate from the legacy ICE business (Ford Blue).

Personally, I think theres ~50% chance Ford will have to split into two companies (separate stock ticker etc.) to be allowed to have an EV only, no-dealership, sales model,

Kinda fun when I get mildly downvoted for mentioning a relevant historical fact.
